RANK had walked aimlessly away from Janice Kent’s house with no particular destination in mind. He was sorely hurt and be- wildered. All that old basic shy- ness that had been—before he knew Janice—knit in his attitude toward women, had returned in full effect. Unutil this moment the relation of the sexes had seemed very simple and uncomplicated. Women had certain outstanding characteristies: love of home and of children; they were gentle and dependent. One asked the girl he loved to marry him, and she accepted or declined; that was all. He knew he loved Janice; he be- lieved that she returned fhis emo- tion at least in part. The test had failed; to him there Was no re- ‘course. His walk brought him near Spin Witslow’s place. ‘He saw the stunt- fiyer for a brief interval At first he ‘made no reference to Janmice.” He ‘stmply told his friend that he was goiiig away; he was going to prowl about on his own account to see #f he could discover what had remlly t‘wened-to Bill Langton: “>But Spin was not deceived. “If at first you'don’t succeed,” he nid ‘quiizzically, “take another slap on ‘the snoot. You get used—" Frank’s face flushed a dull red. Heé ‘conld ‘not prevent ‘the uncon- scious jerking of his hand lowtrd his cheek. The fiyer whistled softly. "Sorry old man,” he said gently. “Didn’t mean— I'm a clumsy fool.” ! It dldn’t matter, Frank told him 1n a ‘dull.volce! He'd just asked'Jd- nice to marry him and she had Te fused him. “Icame to tell you I'm going away, Spin. I can’t stick it out. Yelldw, maybe; but I can’t take this sort of a beating. Icouldn’t work on the set with Bher for months—seeing Her, talking with her, thinking nbbnt her. ... He took up his hat and walked to the door. “So long, Spin. Explain to Myberg I'm called south. Happy Jandings.” Later he found himself walking deserted streets. He was unéon- sclous of time. In the froth of his memory were dim jungle paths, m‘od- tal scenes of warm-washed beaches spotted with lavender shadows of leaning coco-palms. Finally he w‘nt A to his apartment. It was very late.

Bottles containing data to aid in the deter mination of and to add to the knowledge of current drifts wereg thrown overboard and recov- ered as follows: First_positi proximately) lat. 20° 5 92° 13° West. Paper in b: tion from sea water. 1 believed to be in the handwriting of Willlam Langton. The writing (said the papers) had been definitely established as Lang- ton's. Upon further examination of | the document the belief was ex- pressed that the pigment used in the writing was human blood. This fact was to be confirmed by laboratory apalysis. The bottle “pop” some that the paper was a hoax—a tragic hoax, if true. However it was pointed out that the bottle and the beverage it con- tained was largely exported, particu- larly into South American countries, and that it would not have been un- usual for Langton to have taken a | supply with him when he began that ill-fated flight. Further, handwrit- ing experts denied any possibility of a hoax. The paper itself was a torn-open cablegram envelope. No address ap peared on the reverse side. Langton may have carried a supply with him on the plane. The message—what could be de- ciphered—was meager. The first por- tion was fairly legible; it told that bearings had been lost about a hun- dred miles south of Belize in British Honduras. It referred to the hur ricane, and of his attempt to make Belize for a landing. The legibility faded swiftly here. The word “pative” was made out. And startlingly vivid, almost as if the ethotion of the writer had been concentrated in those four words was the fragment, “I1 die tomorrow morning.” itself—an ordinary SINCE the general theory appeared to ‘be that”Langton had gone down at sea: since it was ¢oncluded that the message had been’written with a splinter and blood from a wolind, this was interpreted to mean that Langton had hoped that some native craft would piek him up, and that by estimating the rate at which his wreckage was sinking he would die by “tomorrow morning.” Frank Grabame put down the paper he Was reading and gazed out him that interpretation made non- sense.
