Of the outstanding successes of the

heaven or hell, they do not know
which. AS the boat nears it's desti-
nation the passengers become pan
icky as to their probable fate. They
approach the examiner who comes
aboard with Consciousness of their
misdeeds and with a great fear OF
what is to be meted out to them.
The unfolding of this story is said
TO carry with it a sweep of the emo
t1ons that is seldom met with in the
