' " A PERSON OF SOME IMPORTANC ] | ' “We have been fortunate {o keep him 80 long,” she said. enveloping Matt in a look of tender s rutity “And. oh, for six years, always so good, so loyal, | 80 true hearted eentleman--surely nev- er wias another like our capitan.” “l have one favor to a<k before 1 go." sald Matt., somewhat huskily; *Just one favor. Onae.” he went on, / \ He Played as Matt Had Never Heard Him Play Before. addressing Mort by his Kanaka title, “will you not get your violin—that wonderful violin—and you, Masiofu Mirovna, take your seat at the piano! so that my last picture of you both | may be as | have always loved you | bext, with your music following me’ out into the night?" John Mort glowed at the request. the poetic fancy of it touching him to the quick. He drew the violin from its ense, his face transfigured. his eyes scintillating and impassioned. as he gave n few swift strokes of the bow to test the tuning. “Musle is the only language—the di- vine lunguage,” he exclaimed, “and how far surpassing the stupia com- monplace ot words! Captain, you are a thousand times right, and all our af- fection for you, all our sorrow, all our unuttered hopes and prayers for you. will tind their voice in what 1 play.” When once the violin had touched his chin John Mort becgme a dilferent man. He was strangely eunobled; the glamor of his genius lent dignity aund beauty to his gaunt frawe; his thin. haggard. deeply lined face took on a pew expression, so rapt, so inspired, that he mizht have been in communion with another world. That night he played as Matt bad never heard him play before, with an intensity, a tire, an taendurable pathos that wrung the soul. He had taken as a motive one of those simple, plaintive German folk songs, passing from improvisation to fmprovisation till it seemed the cry of all suffering. doomed humanity. Mirov- na, herself a brilllant musiclan, was quick and apt in following and to Matt's untrained ear marvelously re- dponsive and marvelously perfect. An hour later he was aboard the North Star. and the rustling land breeze was bearing him out of the| lazoon on the long slant porth. Six | yeurs of his life were siuking with the . palms bebind bhim. . . . LJ . .
