board. Once more she struck
out to the northwest, anxious
to avoid the little crowd on
Rawlinsons' beach-and the
comment she might excite.
None apparently had seen
her leap into the water.
"Little fool!" snapped
Banking as he watched for
her to come up. Then he
called two members of the
crew. Get the launch ready!"

As they started to get into
the craft after Banking had
reached the bottom of the
ladder, he changed his mind,

again. "I'm taking her
alone" The men touched
their caps. Banking was
off in the launch. But Bess
had a good start.
Bess, encountered by her
soaking clothes, stumbled out
of the water and fell upon
the strand of the cove. She
was crying. She couldn't
help it. And as she seemed
to be alone, it didn't mat
ter.
She was aroused by the
chug of the launch as it
grounded. Banking jumped
into the water and waded
ashore.
He put a hand on Bess
shoulder. "Better be sensi-
ble," he said. !" And come
with me. Don't be a silly
schoolgirl. I'll take you
round the world-give you
everything. And | won't

Bess cried out in protest.
As she did so, Paul came
from behind a shelterlng
boulder.
"Let her alone!" he said
to Banking tensely.
"Ah! The bookworm =
exclaimed Banking with
contempt. "Don't butt in.
This is our business.

and slapped Paul across the
face. The next instant they
clinched.
For 10 minutes there was
battle in the sand, at
times a wrestling match,
again a fistic affair. Finally
Banking weakened. Paul,

Paul. Muttering impreca-

to his launch.
"Forgive me, Paul, " said
Bess as the craft sped back
toward the yacht. She had
come up to where he stood
glowering at his retreating
foe.
