An Ocean Tragedy

tered the main saloon next morning
for breakfast that Roadway was not
there. He rather dreaded that false,
pre-prandial heartiness and he was not
anxious to have to be amiable toward
a man whose qualities he despised.
Roadway isn't up yet" 1t was Glenn
ents' voice. He had not seen the
steward steal to his side. "He doesn't
answer when l knock"
Bettington put down his cup. He
could swear trouble brooded in the
others eyes.
"Think it's anything serious?"
"You know you were frightened Of
his condition last night, doctor.
think you'd better find out if any
things wrong"
Railways door was locked, but
Clements had a master key. Betting
ton closed the door behind him. He
had seen enough in one brief glance.
Elgar Railway was dead. 1t was
plain, even to Bettington. that he had
been dead many hours. The two men
looked at one another and said moth
ing. To BettingtOn the thing seemed
the hand of Providence. 1t meant that
the Albatross must put about and run
for New York. 1t meant that the
peril in which they tad been placed
Evelyn was now doubly safe. Safe
from The violence and cruelties Of the
dead man, as well as from the lusts
of Clements crime crew.
"This means ruin,' Clements said
slowly.
Bettington shrugged his shoulders
"What will be. will be-"
"a fools creed!" cried Clements
"Was that what you felt in San
Quentin? You know it wasn't or you
would never have killed q guard in
order to escape. The only death
which will ever beat me will be my
own"
Mrs. Railway must know" Betting
ton reminded him.
Clements nodded. "All right. 1t
comes better from you"
Bettington found her on deck.
"Have you seen Mr.. Railway" she
asked He thought there was an air
of GOODNESS about her, an aloofness
that was strange.
Evelyn Railway, although all vestige
of affection for her husband had long
since disappeared, was actuated by
what she felt to be duty to him. She
had realized with a start that her life
on board would have been unutterably
dreary without Doctor Waite. She
was conscious of quickening of her
pulses when he was with her and a
loneliness when he was away. Even
after schooling herself to be cool, in
different and aloOf, she could not help
being glad when Howard Bettington
came to her side. Few girls marry
their Ideals; she had not. But she
recognized in the ships surgeon, as
one sees an old and almost forgotten
face, the man she had idealized before
she set ambition above love.
''It is about him want to speak,"
"You mean he is ill?" she cried.
He bowed his head
"Oh," she cried. "You mean he is
dead!"
Without a word she followed him to
the forward stateroom. Clements
withdrew as he heard her coming.
She glanced in a little fearfully
For few seconds she stood in the
doorway. Then she turned to Bel ting

not come to dinner.
Mary Unwin was plainly nervous.
Mrs. Railway showed no fear at all.
She was playing bright little dance
by Chaminade when Railway came
in. His face was still highly con-
gested. Clements met him with the
inevitable cocktail.
1t was toward the end of dinner that
Railway made his one remark. 1t
was addressed to Bettington. There
was a hooking politeness in his voice.

had risen when the lauieS did, dropped
in his chair again and stared at the
financier. He felt he had never de-
tested any living being so much. This
was the man who had married beauti-
full Evelyn Whiteburn and had made
her miserable. This was the man who
had promised her so much and had
done so little. He wondered what
violent passages there had been in
their lives. She had admitted that
there was possibility of danger for
her when he was in this state; and it
was no new thing for him to be as he
was now.
He watched Railway rise. this time

Bettington in Rome. The doctor who
attended him put Harrowgate's feet
