Neither of us was harmed"
Tom explained swiftly. 1--WE were
simply held prisoners until the
boats could take the men Off the
island-but what happened here ?"
He looked at Brooks, still un-
conscious, a great cut on his tenn
pie, and at Bill, who was slowly
trying to sit up, and wincing as his
wounded shoulder throbbed furi-
ously.
Swiftly, concisely, the major ex-
planned what had happened. Tom
listened intently. nodding when
the major had finished.
Il know now that the ship
wrecked sailors were from an oil
tanker that they scuttled to avoid
capture" said Tom. 1T was Ger
man ship, trying to run the block
ade. The English were watching for
her, and when she came out of the
Caribbean. after loading at Vera
Cruz, they took after her. Rather
than allow the prize to fall into the
hands of the enemy, the ship was
scuttled. That much l gathered
from things the men let fall as they
were waiting to be taken of. They
were pretty sore about their con-
tact man Icing murdered-and
they talked a lot more than their
leader wanted. l imagine the fell
low who was here was really in
charge. and lie could probably have
shut them up II he'd been around.
AS 1t was. they talked their heads
off. Fortunately, I know enough
German to be able to understand
some Of what they were saying"
They were German?" demand
ed the major.
Most of Them" answered Tom
quietly. They we're taken of by
tramp steamer that had evidently
been waiting off-shore ever since
the other ship was scutled and they
took to the lifeboats. And-they
are to be smuggled ashore into the
United States along the gulf coast.
There's pretty thought Ell,
Major? ?"
Very pretty" said the major
grimly. But 1t only carries out
what the Dies Committee on I'M
American Activities has been say
ing for months"
There was little moan and Ma
talie sat up, one hand touching the
disordered curls clustered on her
forehead. She looked dazedly from
Mrs. Edmonds tc Tom and the
major, and smiled ruefully.
That was pretty silly OF me,
wasn't IL" she apologized. II sup

shakily to her feet, stumbling to
the side Of the sofa where he lay.
ooh, my darling-my darling!
What's happened? Who did this ?"
She was kneeling beside him,
crying, patting his cheek, wincing
before the sight Of that ugly cut
on his forehead that Mrs. Edmonds
had carefully battered and cauter-
lied.
He'll be all right, Mrs. March,

soothe her. ut was an ugly blow"

Somebody get doctor. Oh,
Brooks!" she sobbed.
Get a doctor, my eye!" blazed
Terry. What the heck--do you
think he's the only guy that's hurt?
What about Bill here? He's SHOT!
Don't you suppose we'd get a doc
tor II we could?"
Natalie looked up at Terry, as
though realizing for the first time
that there was anybody else in the
place except Brooks. And before
the bright. hot anger in Terry's
eyes, she flushed and said awk-
wardly, 'Tm-Tm sorry. I forgot
about our being prisoners here"
Its all right" said Terry ungra-
ciously, turning back to Bill.
up and at 'em, baby" whis-
pered Bill, grinning a little, his
hand curled about hers.
Darling. does 1t hurt-so ter
ribly?" Terry pleaded.
"Shucks-it's nothing. I almost
enjoy 1t, as a matter Of fact" said
Bill and set his teeth hard as a
spasm Of pain shook him and his
white face made a liar Of his gall
liant words.
"Oh, this Is awful" Lucy cried
out wildly. ito have to stand
around here helpless-with people
hurt, maybe dying. needing things"
Lucy. hush!" pleaded Orwin. To

ly. She's pretty easily upset
You'll have to overlook"
Pretty easily upset my eye"
Betsy cut In grimly., well. I've al
ways prided myself on having
strong nerves. When you're on your
own In a world that's not overly
friendly, you get that way. But 1t
would be no trick at all for me to
explode and fly in ali directions.
Come on. Lucy. let's make some
coffee. I think 1t would do every
body good"
Stout feller!" said Tom under
his breath as she passed him.
Smile when you say that, mis-
ter" Betsy said, with a game grin,
That's an insult, nowadays!"

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE
SUDDENLY there came the
sound of a whistle. The stranger
was instantly alert.
you folk stay here in this room
and count TO a hundred, if you
want to see the dame and the guy
we've got. again." he told them
sternly. "One funny move out OF
any Of you-and they'll get bumped
80 quick you won't believe It."
He turned and the darkness
swallowed him up. They heard
sounds about the house, movement,
murmurs of voices, and knew that
the stranger had not been lying
when he said that the house had
been surrounded. They stared at
each other, wordless, until suddenly
the major made an impulsive
movement towards the French
door. Instantly Betsy was upon
him, clinging to him, crying out
sharply, mo, no-he1l kill Tom
He said he woodland he wasn't
fooling."
The major nodded and stood still.
The sounds outside died away, ST.
lence crept in again, as though II
were some living, tangible thing
that had been frightened away by
the last hour or so. Out in the jun
gle the pickering row Of lights
was gone; silence had moved back
there, and 1t was broken at last by
the queer, .rumbling barking Of an
alligator.
The people huddled in the room
were still gripped in the horror OF
what had happened, and when they
heard slow, halting footsteps in the
patio. they held their breath,
watching the French door with
wide, frightened eyes. So 1t was
that Tom found them when he
stepped across the threshold, car
rying Natalie in his arms.
There was a moment OF stupe-
faction; then Betsy cried his name
and plunged across the room and
upon him. He laid Natalie on a
couch and turned to take the sob
bling Betsy into his arms.
"Oh, Tommy, Tommy-darling,
DARLrNG-I thought they'd killed
you" she walled. clinging to him.
Tommy's arms closed about her
and there was curiously startled
look in his eyes as she kissed him.
A look that she caught as she
kissed him the second time. Then
hot wave Of color swept over her
face and she drew back, stammer-
ing, We'll, you were gone so long
and that awful man was here"
Mrs. Edmonds and Lucy were
working over Natalie and they
looked up to say reasssuringly,
