Drake is put down on the ship's articles as “boy,” thereby shaming him be- fore— Mary Manning, daughter of the owner, who is a passenger. When Stevens assaults Mary, Drake springs to her defense and is put in irons by the enraged captain. Now, at Capetown, there comes aboard the Orontes— Mr. Fielding, a lawyer, with the astounding news that Drake has become owner of the Orontes and that Captain Stevera must surs render command of the ship to him, | NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY 0 need for loud talking," Drake cut in, sharply. “First let us go to | the Custom House and’ settle the | matter. Then—" “Then I only want five minutes' | talk with you on neutral ground be- hind the sheds before I pack my dunnage for home!" snarled Stev- ens. Drake nodded grimly as the frons fell from him, then brushed his clothes and halr with his hands and | went smilingly to Mary. | “Miss Mary, 1t you have read the ‘):-'(nr Captain Manning tells me he | sent you, you know that your father (has sold the ship to me. It will im::ke no difference to your voyage, | except that T shall be your captain for the rest of the passage. Cap- tain Stevens and I are now going to | negotiate the change of masters. ‘When I return on board, may I hope to have your company at dinner ashore tonight?" “Miss Manning is going to dinner with me!"” snapped Stevens. “I'll call for you at five, Mary.” Drake glanced at her face, wait- |ing for her to speak. There was a | gleam In her dark blue eyes, a tiny | pucker between them, He had never seen that expression before in her. Had he not believed Mary Manning to be as full of courage as she was of health, he would have suspected !that look meant fear. Yet there was nothing for her to be afrald of, | He met her eye, and looked his question. “I promised she said. “But I'm not sure that Mr. Stev- | ens will bhe free” gald Drake. You can bet I'll be the free-est | man in this port as soon as I leave | the Custom House,” Stevens grinned. “Barrin', of course, that five min- | utes of your time I have bespoke, | Captain Drake,” Stevens in his turn | emphasized the Captain unduly. “Of course, if Mr. Stevens is free, you must keep your promise, Ma Drake laughed easily, meeting the | black glare of Stevens calmly enough, “But .J scarcely think he {will be. I shall come for you at five-thirty., No gentleman expects a Jady to wait more than half an hour him. Shall we go ashore now, | IYielding? You ready, Stevens?"” Mr. Fielding was very glad to go. Thers was too much dynamite in | the surcharged atmosphere of the Orontes' cabin, He knew little of the imnn of the wide waters.

Drake pulled Stevens inside the cab. “You'll he a deserter if you quit,” Drake sald as they started off, “I'm not quitting. I'm gupersed- ed!" snarled Btevens, knowing he had the right of that. “Perhaps you're right,” Drake re- jolned carelessly, “Perhaps you had better quit. I don't want a first mate who's scared of me., I never had much use for a coward, If you're that kind of a quitter, you had bet- ter— “Stop!" choked Stevens, gripping Drake's arm flercely, his face work- ing and writhing as if he were in| imminent peril of- a stroke, “Don't say another word! Come on in and get this thing over. Then give me that five minutes! two minutes! only just one minute'll do. Coward? Quitter? Oh, sweet little Cherubs! Here you are, Mister! Come on in!" Oh, “I PROMISED CAPTAIN STEV-| NS," SHE SAID. The business of transferring own- ership and command of the Oron- tes was not a lengthy matter. The wheels had been greased very ef- fectively through cable negotiations while the ship was on her way out to the Cape. When signatures wefe affixed to documents there was noth- ing else to do prior to the clearing | of the ship when ready to proceed. Mr. Ficlding looked vastly re- lieved. He could indulge his cour- teous rature to the limit in extend- ing good wishes and congratulations to his new client without belng momentarily in fear of some out- burst from glowering Jake Stevens. | “Really, sir, it would be better if | Jet the man go!" he said. “A A perfect brute, I} you imagine.” | “Drake laughed pleasantly as he | bade Fielding good day. “I like Stevens,” he said. “I have a feeling that we shall yet wind up the voyage good friends.” ‘When the lawyer departed, Drake spent an hour looking for Stevens. In the first galoon bar he visited they sald Jake had just left with another man after taking two hur- ried drinks. In the next place, stumbled upon hy chance after sev- cral blanks had been drawn, Stev- ens had alone, had bought rum, and gone on. Drake tried one more place, nearer the docks. and then went aboard, for the clock pointed cloge to five. He was pleased, | rather, that Jake had chosen to| load up with C Smoke before | taking that five minutes' interview. He knew there was a chance thaf, when a man started out to drown his grievances in liquor, other things were likely to get drowned, too. He | hoped Jake would fail to show up, that he Mary could enjoy an cvening together. A drunken man would be easier to handle than a cold sober one; but injany condi- tion Jake ftevens was going to be a handful, and Drake for once felt vain enough to want to present a good appearance before Ma There weve clothes In that sea- | chest and sea bag that had come| him by steamer; clothes fit for genteel wear, “Mister Stevens aboard yet?” asked Twining at the gangway. “No—no, sir,” replied the mate with a queer smirk.
