They were stopped once more. Err
nest and Willard were both deathly
pale, overwhelmed by more unfore-
seen uncertainties than they were
able to handle.
'You mean," Willard said at last,
"that Garrett Waterson really is in
competent"
Il mean," Dick said, "that the
whole situation is going to be just
exactly what old Garrett Waterson
chooses to make it."
''You don't SUPPOSE" Ernest de-
manded, that he'd let himself be
proved incompetent in an effort to
steal this island? Or do your
"How should I know" Dick
snapped.
What on earth," Ernest asked
Willard in bewildered way, "are
we supposed to do now"
Tonga Dick kicked out of bed with
a movement of evaporation, and
hunted around for a bath towel.
Il tell you what you're going to
do" he roared at them. You're
going to go and tell Tsura I want
three eggs for breakfast! / have no
doubt it will take both of you to ham
die that problem-you don't seem
to be able to do anything alone.
Get out!"
Ernest and Willard Wayne mo-
rosely watched Tonga Dick as he ate
his breakfast. He was able to enjoy
that, in a way. Uncertain as he
was about what this new turn of the
wheel might mean, the confusion of
his brothers was SO much greater
as to provide form of entertain
ment.
Even when they had abandoned
the presumption that Dick was ly-
ing, they could not get over their
suspicion that the man who had
signed himself Garrett Waterson
was an impostor.
"The Pacific islands are swarm
ing with old reprobates who claim
to be famous old characters" Err
nest Wayne objected. IF it became
known that there was any advantage
in being Garrett Waterson, at least
six of them would probably turn
up"
Willard supported him. "It's easy
enough to make a claim of being
somebody that's twenty years
dead"
That's perfectly true" Tonga
Dick admitted. However, as it hap
pens, that is impossible in this case.
James Wayne was aware of Water
sons existence, and his where
abouts. continuously since his dis
appearance"
''Thats ridiculous" Willard said
fatty. ''Uncle Jim never said one
word about such a circumstance,
not in all these years. If this
were true he certainly would have
told Ernest and me-he would have
had no possible reason for conceal
ment."
