 l hesitated, yet only long enough to leave the impression I sought to make on them both.
 Likely thar aint no sailor but what has heerd O him." ! said slowly. Tt don't look like thar wus much choice. does itY"
 LeNere appeared amused in his way. which was not pleasant one.
 'Oh. yes, friend, there is choice enough. Bill, here, had exactly the same choice when he first came-hey. Bill? Remember how you signed on after We tool you off the Albatross? :? This is how it stands. Gates-either go forrard quietly yerself, CT the both Of us will kick You there. That will be enough talk Go on, now"
 It was curt dismissal, coupled with q plain threat. easy to understand. | oheyed the order gladly enough, sllnk ing away into the black shadows for ward, realizing my good fortune. and seeking some spot where I could be alone.
 The crew had disappeared. lying down no doubt in corners out of the wind And this wind was certainly rising. l wondered that LeVere hung on so long in his periloua position, aI- though, in spite of the increased strain, the anchor still chung firmly. It seemed to me that no hawser ever made could long withstand the terrific strain of our tugging, as the struggling bark rose and fell In the grip of the sea. To him must have come the same con. viction, for suddenly hls high-pltched voice sang out from the poop:

 From high up on the fore-top yard The answer, blown by the wind. came down in broken English:
 Non, m'sieur; see nottings."
 Joined the watch forward. The number of men on deck was evidence or large crew, there being many more than were necessary for the work to be done. Most of them ap- peared to be able seamen, and Haines drove them mercllessly, cursing them Tor lnbbers, and twice kicking vicious " at a stepping form. Then the great rope began to slip swiftly through the hawse hole, and We heard the sharp splash as the iron fiukes struck the water, and sank. Almost at that same instant the voice of Cavere rang out from the masthead:
 "A sail, m'sieur-a sailr
