I trusted to your gallantry not to leave him in the lurch, but to fol- low him hither, and there's a note from his hand gone ashore to sum- mon the Harhor Master and the Com- mandant of the fort. Once they are aboard, I shall have all the hostages 1 need for our safety.” His lordship laughed. “You fool," he said. “Do you dream that I came aboard your pirate ship without tak- ing my measures? I informed the Commandant of exactly how you had compelled Colonel Bishop to accom- pany you. Judge now whether he or the Harbor Master will obey the sum- mons, or whether vou will be allowed to depart as you imagine.” Blood's face became grave. “If they so much as put a shol' across my bows, up goes their Deputy Governor to the yardarm. Your only hope, Colonel, lies in the fact that I shall send them word of that intention. And so that you may mend as far as you can the harm you have done, it's yourself shall bear them the message, my lord.” “Very well.” Lord Julian bowed again and took his departure. Blood escorted him to the entrance ladder at the foot of which still swung the Arabella’s own cock-boat. “It's goodby, my lord,"” said Blood. “And there's another thing." He proffered a parchment that he had drawn from his pocket. “It's the commission. Bishop was right when he said it was a mistake.” Lord Julian considered him, considering him his expression ened. “1 still do not perceive—blister me if I do!—why you should not have , found someone else to carry your message to the Commandant, and kept me aboard as an added hostage for his obedience to your wishes.” Blood's vivid eyes looked into the other's and he smiled, a little wist- fully “Why:shouldn‘t T tell you? It's the same reason that's been urging me to pick a quarrel with you so that 1 might have the satisfaction of slip- ping a couple of feet of steel into your vitals. When I accepted your commission, T was moved to think it might redeem me in the eyes of Miss Bishop—for whose sake, as you may have guessed, I took it. But I have discovered that such a thing is beyond accomplishment. I have discovered also that if she's choosing you, as I believe she is, she's choosing wisely between us, and that's why I'll not have your life risked by keeping you aboard whilst the message goes by another who might bungle it. And now perhaps gye'll understand.” Lord Julian stared at him bewil- dered. His long, aristocratic face was very pale. “My God!" he said, “And you tell me this?" I I tell you so that she may be made to realize that there's something of the unfortunate gentieman left under the thief and pirate she accounts me, and that her own good is my supreme desire.” Lord Julian continued to look at| the buccaneer in silence. In silence, at last, he held out his hand; and in silence Blood took it. The Arabella sailed within the hour, moving lazily before a sluggish breeze. The fort remained silent and there was no movement from the fleet to hinder her departure.

And Bishop, the great bulk of him huddled in the stern sheets, sat silent. On the mole at Port Royal, under the low, embattied wall of the fort, Major Mallard and Lord julian waited to receive him, and it was.with in- finite relief that they assisted him, from the sloop. | Very early next morning before the heat of the day came to render the open intolerable to his lordship, he| espied Arabella from his window mov- ing amid the azaleas in the garden. He hurried forth to join her, and when she had given him a good- morrow, he explained himself by the. announcement that he bore her a mes- sage from Captain Blood. He fingered the ringlets of his peri- wig, a little embarrassed how to de- liver himself, considering how he should begin. “He desired me,” he said at least, “to give you a message that should prove to you that there is still some- Catarrh Quickly Ended by a Pleasant Germ-Killing Antiseptic The little Hyomel Tnhaler is made of hard rubber and can easily be carried in pocket or purse.
