And till Ulum Balang was lost in the sea
haze, Hewett stood by the taffrail, gazing
astern.
For year we sailed amongst the islands;
Hewett settling up his affairs, telling the
people that hereafter l should be the one
with whom they would deal; for he was going
to turn the schooner over to me.
I'd long ago forgotten the dog, and so had
Hewett, when at the end of the year we
approached Ulum Balang. But as we neared
the reef there was shout from one of the
crew. Swimming lazily beside the schooner
was the great brute that had taken the dog
Hewett ran for the shark hook, and this time
the brute swan to the bait and took it.
go get the kukri, said Hewett some time
later when we had the shark hoisted clear of
the water and hanging by tackle from the
gaff.
The schooner was rolling to long slow
swell, so that now the brute hung far from
her side, and now swung inboard, its tail
threshing, its body quivering with rage.
"Look out. the devil doesn't hit you with
that TAIL" said l. handing Hewett the kului.

a few feet from her side Raising the kulri,
Hewett leaned over the rail. But before he
could slice off fin, a swell took the schooner,
so that she rolled hard. and, lashing its tail
furiously, the shark came swinging inboard.
Look out!' cried. too late. Knocked
down by blow of the tail. Hewett sprawled
on the deck. He sprang up. but in that instant
heshark had swung outboard again.
And now one of the crew cried, 1.-The rope!
The rope Tuan" And the rope, that after
catching hundreds of fsharks had lain neglected
below for more. than year, parted and the
shark fell to the sea and swan slowly away;
with the short length of chain that was
attached to the hook dangling from its jaws.
Hewetts face was pale, and on his left side
was dark bruise.

Again we swan ashore. and again the
people of Ulum Balang were on the beach to

of her people. supposed. But when in dim
dusk we walked from the water, saw her,
standing alone, away from the crowd. In her
dark hair flowers were twined. and about her
slender shoulders was garland of flowers.
"You have come back at last, Tuan," she
said.
"Yes. I've come back" said Hewett, quite
casually Just as he spoke the full moon
arose from behind the palms and shone onto
her upturned face. And as they stood gazing
into each others eyes, l sensed sort "of
tremor run through Hewett
Again the girl waited on Hewett while we
feasted. and this time her eyes were shining
and glad. When feasting was done they walked
away together, and saw them seated under
palm in the moons bright golden light. Till
far into the night they sat there. and all the
village was still when Hewett called my name.

Taking her face in his hands. Hewett looked
deep in her eyes. Can you wait year for me,
my little hower?" he asked. There are many
things that must attend to, but in year l
shall come"
And the girl replied, "Tuan, would wait
for you till all the stars were dead"
A breeze was stirring the palms. "The
sooner 60, the sooner Iretwn, " said Hewett.
Again she swan with US across the still
in-shore water. When we were come to the
edge of the swift current Hewett said, "You
must go back now, and in year will come. !"
He kissed her lips, and she his. And then we
swan on, and she swan back to the beach.
While we hove up anchor saw her standing

water, and, with the kulri in my hand, was
crying, "Pull! For Gods sake, pull!
The girl was in the current now; between
her and Hewett, who was far ahead of the
boat, was the shark still swimming slowly
And now l saw that the girl had between her

at the brute's right fin. My blow was true,
and with its fin sliced away the shark began
to circle passing swiftly round the boat.

that the shark would be meeting the girl now

And then, of sudden, there was cry
