eyes surveying us once more; then, with extended hand he bade Dorothy be seated.
 "The story Is seemingly an honest one," he said slowly, ''and these sea men have done great service to the colony. They deserve reward rather than punishment. The fair lady who pleads for them is known to us all, and to even question her word is inn possible. Unfortunately l have not the power of pardon in cases of piracy, nor authority to free bond slaves, with out the approval of the home govern ment; yet will exercise in this case whatsoever of power l possess. For gallant services rendered to the col ony, and unselfish devotion to Mistress Dorothy Fairfax, 1 release Geoffry Carlyle from servitude pending ad- vices from England; 1 also grant pa- role to these seamen, on condition they remain within our Jurisdiction until this judgment can be confirmed and full pardons issued. Is this judg- ment satisfactory, gentlemenW
 The members of the council bowed gravely, without speaking.

 "No, your excellency. Beyond doubt 1t contains the gold stolen from Roger Fairfax; and possibly the result of other robberies at sea.
 '"The law of England is that certain belongs to the crown, the remainder, it's true ownership undetermined, to be fairly divided among those recovering it."
 Yet" spoke up Dorothy quickly. 'it must surely be possible to waive all claim in such cases?"
 Certainly; as private property it can be disposed of in any way desired. Was that your thought?"
 "A Fairfax always pays his debt, she said proudly. "and this is mine." There was a moments silence as though each one present hesitated to speak. She had risen. and yet stood but with eyes lowered to the floor. Then they were lifted and met mine in all frank honesty. "There is another debt 1 owe" she said clearly. "and would pay. your ex- celency."
 "What is that, fair mistress?" She crossed to me, her hand upon i my arm.
 "To become the wife of Geoffry Car | lyle"

DIED A GENTLEMAN UNAFRAlD
Time Comedian, Undmmed Even on His Deathbed.

When the incOmpurable Wag and humorist, Billy Manning, lay dying. Billy Emerson. Dan O'Hara and other friends of long standing made up a calling party.
 Good morning. Bill. How are you todny?" was Emerson's salutation for the party.
 Well" the dying minstrel drawled. his sense of humor pene- death. q feel good deal like an old circus horse after the tentng sea son. I want to go round, but can't. This was spoken in the tone of hope less but comic pathos with which poor Bill was wont to catch the public.
 You're looking first-rate," O'Hara put in, trying hard to give his voice "a note of cheering encouragement. but gazing sorrowfully at the prone, emaci- ated figure on the bed
 Are you lookin' at me, or at the big pillows under me?" Manning queried. winking feebly at his old partner Elm erson. who had difficulty in restrain ing his tears.
 What does the doctor say about you, Bll?" another of the party asked. feeling it incumbent upon himself to say something, anythng-a position of extreme difficulty. as any visitor to the dying can testify.
 "Oh, he says l need rest. Now there's a doctor-there's a doctor. boys, that knows his business That's why bought lot in the cemetery yesterday. I need-rest."
 Come, now, Bill" said the choking Emerson, 'isn't there something you'd like to take outside of what the doc tors giving you?"
 "Yes." was the reply. "Fd like to take benefit"
 And that was how the big fare well Manning benefit came about. The minstrels last days were made easy by 1t and the sore hearts of his friends and comrades of merrier days and more or less hectic nights correspond ingly glad by reflection. The last words of Billy Manning were:
 Boys. I'm billed ahead"

CHAPTER xxxIli.
Bsfore the Governor.

The sound startled me; I imagined l heard the keel slipping, yet before we had reached the door opening on deck the slight movement ceased. My hand Sripped the frightened Haines.
 'Tell them in the boat to do as l said; then come back here"
 My God, sir, she's goin' down."
 Not for some minutes yet. There are thousands of pounds i'll that chest 1; you've risked life for less many a time. Jump, my man"
 The boat lay in close, bobbing up and down dangerously, yet held firmly beneath the opened port. The box was heavy enough to tax the strength of two men to handle it, but of size and shape permitting it's passage. Sanchez had raised himself again, and clung there to the edge of the bunk watching us.
 Now let down easy, lads," 1 called. "No, place 1t amidships; get it even, or you go over. Fix it to ride steady, and stand by-well pass a wounded man out to you!"
 stepped across to Sanchez. He saw me coming, and drew back. his ghastly face like a mask.
 No you don't. Carlyle!" he snapped angriy. Keep your hands off me. So you want me to de with my neck in moose. do you? l was born a gen tleman. and, by God I'll die like one and go down with my ship. Get out of here now! You won't? You will, or else die here with me! I'll give you q minute to make your choice"
 He left no doubt as to his meaning From beneath the blanket. the black muzzle of pistol looked straight into my eyes. The hand holding it was firm, the face fronting me savagely sardonic.
 "rd like to kill you. Carlyle" he hissed hatefully. "By God, don't know why I shouldn't. Every time look at you see her face If you take a step nearer I pull the trigger-go p
 It was a hard pull back to the Santa Marie. Dorothy greeted me first, and we stood close together at the rail as the men hoisted the chest on deck She said nothing. asked nothing, but her hands clung to my arm, and when ever turned toward her our eyes met.
 There was sudden cry forward. and voice shouted:
 "There she goes, buckles! That's tho lust O the Namur! P
 turned swiftly, my hand grasplng her fingers as they clung to the rail- The battered hulk slid downward, the deck breaking amidships as the stern splashed into the depths; then that also toppled over, leaving nothing above water except the blunt end of a broken bowsprit. and tangle' of wreckage tossed about on the crest of the waves. I watched breathlessly, unable to utter sound; could only think of that stricken man in the cabin, those wild eyes which had threatened me. He was gone now-gonei

 It was scarcely sunrise, on the fifth day. when we dropped anchor against the current of the James, our sails furled and the red English colors fly ing from the peak. Two hours later the entire company were in the pres ence of the governor. where 1 told my story. gravely listened to, supplement- ed by the earnest plea of the young woman. shall never forget that scene. or how breathlessly we awaited the decision of the great man. who so closely watched our faces.

Their eyes turned to me questioningly.
 Opposite us, behind long table. sat the governor, dignified. austere. his hair powdered and face smoothly shaven; while on either side of him were those of his council. many of the faces stern and unforgiving. But for their gracious reception of Dorothy and their careful attention to her words should have lost heart. They questioned me shrewdly, although the governor spoke but seldom. and then in kindly tone of sympathy and un- derstanding. One by one the men were called forward, each in turn com pelled to tell briefly the story of his life; and when all was done the eyes of the governor sought those of the council.
 "You have all alike heard the tale, gentlemen" he said. Nothing like 1t hath ever before been brought before this colony. Would you leave decision to mel"
 There was murmur of assent, as though they were thus gladly relieved of responsibility in so serious mat ter. The governor smiled. his kindly
