CHAPTER XXVII.
The Silent Vessal.
Man*, having lost sight of both Sir
Anthony and Coco, had followed the
road down to the harbor. There, under
the biasing sky, with the populous blue
water at her feet, and the gleaming
masses of white buildings around her,
and in the distance sun-blanched
beaches and the palms clustering on
Pelican Island, she walked anxiously
,nd fro amid the yelling bustle of
the thousand activities of the quay.
What could she do but wait? She
regretted that she had no longer her
masculine disguise. So concealed,
would she not have followed and out
distanced Sir Anthony—yes, and per
haps done more than he? She lacked
confidence In Tony. He waa a dear,
good, vain fellow, but he Inspired
everything except trust in his ability
to meet a crisis uuccessfuljy. She
could not conceive him as a match for
Walter Pollexfen. and she wa* even
troubled by vague fears for his per
sonal safety. If only Oxwlch had been
at hand! At that very moment she
aught sight of Oxwlch, who like her
self was perambulating uneasily to and
fro near Careenage. He saw her, too,
and came hastening toward her. He
was clearly perturbed.
"Excuse me. Miss Pollexfen." he said,
raising his hat and stopping directly
In front of her. "Do you know where
Sir Anthony Is?"
"I don’t." she replied. She felt un-*
able to explain to Oxwlch that Tony
was pursuing Walter Pollexfen
through the mazes of the town. The
Idea seemed somehow ridiculous. "Do
you want him particularly, Oxwlch?"
"Well, miss," he said gravely. "The
White Rose has come In. That's all."
"The White Rose?" she breathed.
He nodded. "Came In an hour ago or
more, m/ss. We must have passed her
during the night."
"Where Is she?"
He pointed northward Into the dis
tance of the bay. "That gray thing."
he said, "with one funnel and no masts.
Just met that Medical Officer person
and he told me. Where shall I And
Sir Anthony, miss?"
"Oxwlch," she almost wept. "I don't
know. But he can't be very far ofT."
And she ended by relating to him what
had happened at the Ice House.
Oxwlch paused, reflectively.
"There's one thing to be said, miss,"
he observed at length. "If Mr. Walter
Pollexfen Is ashore, the White Rose
can't be very dangerous, can she? How
would you like me to go and have a
look at her?
"You mean at once?"
"I mean at once, mlsa. Supposing
Mr. Masters to be aboard, miss, and
Mr. Walter Pollexfen out of the way
—you aee—miss—"
"I must go with you, Oxwlch."
"Certainly, miss."
Most men, she thought, would have
tried to dissuade her from the enter
prise, but Oxwlch was not as other
men. On the whole she decided that
she had not often met an Individual so
solidly based In human common sense
ns Oxwlch. Ami here, on the quay, he
was less the valet than usual. Indeed,
her heart counted him a fellow' crea
ture.
"The launch?"
"Yes, miss. It's down behind here,”
and he led the way.
The launch lay safe and secure
where they had quitted It enrller In the
morning. But It .was deserted. A faint
vapor rose from Its narrow, brass fun
nel, nnd a slight heat quivered over
the machinery, but otherwise It was
lifeless. In vain they gazed along the
quay in search of one of the members
of the Wanderer's crew, and then down
Into the Interior of the launch ns If
by mere force of desire they could
mnke It active and subservient to their
needs. The launch without some one
ho understood Its magic was futile,
and though Its entire desertion was
doubtless contrary to Captain Chet-
wode's orders, that desertion was none
the less a fact. Oxwlch accepted tbe
situation at once.
"We muat hire a boot, mlsa," he de
cided.
And led the way to where a group of
red-cushioned white boats, each pre
sided over by a darky sucking sugar
cane, swayed gently, bumping In the
ahullow diamond-pointed water.
A scarcely perceptible emotion of
Oxwlch'* finger set the fleet In a roar.
"Star of Barbadoes you want, sar."
"No, no. Massa want do Pearl.”
"Go 'long wld de Pearia; gen'nian
calls for the Water Idly."
"Yofl man dar, go 'way, go 'way, I
say; Massa signaled me. Yes, sar;
coming, aar; de Ocean Spray, sar."
"Call me, Massa. I know you. Massa.
You offen been in Flying Fish today.
Quite a lady's boat, sar."
8o the verbal strife continued, until
Oxwlch hod actually set foot In the
Flying Fish nnd was giving a respect
ful hand to Mary to help her to em
bark. Then the turmoil expired as nb-
ruptly as It had arisen nnd the Flying
Fish sped away under Oxwlch'* guid
ance.
Such was the burning glare that It
was Impossible to gaze open-eyed itt
either the water or the sky. But the
nigger oarsman In hi* ragged white
pulled a rapid, powerful stroke and
managed also to maintain a continu
ous whining monologue, an unceasing
Jet of Information concerning the har
bor, the uniqueness of the Flying Fish,
the movements of liners and men of
wtfrr. the rules for approaching the
fever hospital on Pelican Island, and a
thousand other matters.
Mary glanced feverishly, not daring
to raise her sun-veil and resting her
eyes from time to time on the dark
red of the cushions of the boat. Ox
wlch was by her side In the roomy
stern sheets, but at a proper distance.
Presently he took a pair of eyeglasses
from his pocket, lit a match and smok
ed them.
"Excuse me, miss." he said apolo
getically, assuming the pince-nez which
had boon his aid when In less crowded
hours he studied the Encyclopaedia
Brttannlca.
"Easy," he commanded the boatman.
They were within a couple of hun
dred yards of a small and rather un
kempt, vessel across whose stern could
now be plainly deciphered the legend:
White Rose, London.” She was swing-
tern?" Her voice shook.
"Yes, miss," said Oxwlch, succinctly.
"Thunk heaven It Is! A nice surprise
we shall have for Sir Anthony,
think Mr. Masters has recognized us—
you, I mean, miss." And then to the
boatman, "Go ahead, boy."
The figure on the deck of the yacht
waved a hand In a gesture that seemed
to resemble a gesture of adieu, and dis
appeared from view*.
"He'll meet us on the gangway, miss,"
said Oxwlch. "Pull with your left,
boy; with your left—not your right.”
But the gangway was slowly drawn
up by hands Invisible from the boat.
"What does that mean?" Mary ask
ed nervously.
"We shall soon know, miss," was Ox-
wlch’s reply.
The Flying Fish grazed the side of
the yacht, which towered high above.
•Ship ahoy!" yelled the nigger In a
cornet blast.
<*o answer*
White Rose, ahoy!"
Again no answer. But near the boat,
out of a vent In the battered side of
the steamer, water suddenly burst forth
and poured In a regular stream aa thick
as a man’s arm, splashing Into the sea.
The effect was uncanny. •
"Mr. Masters!" cried Oxwlch loudly,
standing up.
No answer. Nothing bftt the out
pouring of waste water. The boat
slowly made the circuit of the ship,
passing by the empty dinghy, and
around the taut anchor chain; and they
discovered nothing. Repeated shouts
availed naught. The steamer might be
uninhabited, abandoned. cursed.
There was no means of boarding her;
the gangway being horizontal just out
of reach.
You are sure that was Mr. Mas
ters?" Mary murmured, her throat
dry.
I am quite sure, miss."
Then what are we to do?"
We are to go back ushore. miss, and
report, If that Is agreeable to you,"
said Oxwlch with terrible solemnity.
When they arrived at the Careenage
thev found a group comprising Sir
Anthony. Mrs. Appleby and Horace,
and Horace was waving a handkerchief
to the occupant of a boat that had Just
left the quay. Horace plunged Into a
recital of how the occupant of the boat
had saved his life with a revolver.
Tony, ns he handed Mary out the Fly
ing Fish, asked anxiously where she
had been.
"To the White Rose,” she said.
Tony's face was a study..and a pain
ful one. He had to describe his late
doings as best he could. He finished by
stating without conviction that the
stranger whom Coco had mistaken for
Walter Pollexfen was going over to
the Rhine and would return in twenty
minutes, as the Rhine was about to
sail.
"But the Rhine Isn’t about to sail,
Sir Anthony," said Oxwlch. "8he's only
Just come In from St. Vincent. And
what's more, he Isn't heading for the
Rhine. It seems to me he's heading
tor the White Rose." In Oxwich's
tone disgust had triumphed over the
valor In him.
The party on the Careenage had the
pleasure of seeing the boat with Its
occupant metge Into the distant mass
of the White Rose, and then the White
Rose weighed her anchor and leisure
ly departed from Carlisle Bay. Almost
at the same moment Coco, breathless
nnd disheveled, arrived. His activities
had been as sterile as Sir Anthony's.
To finish. It was discovered to be
Impossible to coal that tiny. The light
ers were all engaged. But late In the
evening a watcher on the deck of the
Wanderer observed a moving train of
phosphorus that gleamed and sparkled
on the dark water like a host of mu
rine fireflies. It had come slowly
southward from a point where lights
Indicated vessels at anchor, and It was
approaching the Wanderer. It could
only signify the passage of a boat. It
drew* nearer, and there was heard the
sound of cautious oars, and then a
rolce. A boat touched the Wanderer’s
gangway.
"Who Is It?" demanded the watcher,
fearfully. "Who Is there?"
•it Is I." rose the answer from the
water. "Masters."
CHAPTER* XXVIII.
An Ambassador.
The white figure of Mary Pollexfen,
with black velvet belt, and black also
at tha wrists, stood leaning anxiously
forward at the head of the gangway,
one hand on the rail and the other at
her heart. Below’, In the deep shadows
of the yacht's side, the swaying oval
of a small’boat was vaguely silhouet
ted against the sea's wavy phosphores
cence. In the boat tw’o forms could
be discerned, and one of these uprose,
detaching Itself front the dinghy, and
mounted cautiously the steps. Mary
put out a hand In Impulsive welcome
nnd caught the hand of Philip Mas
ter*. He reached the deck and she still
held his hand, and they peered silently
Into each other’s face at close quarters;
the crescent moon was obscured and
some tracts of stars, t6o, and the Ian
terns oh the yacht’s mast threw only a
feeble gleam.
"Then you did not sail away In the
White Rose?" she murmured at last.
"Yes.” he whispered, "but the yacht
has put back.”
"What for?" she Inquired, In sudden
fear. ,
"Foal.”
It seemed ns If something compelled
them to speak tn un undertone. Their
voices were tense, constrained. The
yacht's deck stretched somber and de
serted about them, the bridge dimly
outlined over their heads. No one on
board appeared to be awake save them
selves, but a radiance from the skylight
of the main saloon gave hint of life
below. A little pause ensued. Mary
could feel her heart beating violently,
and she wondered what thoughts were
passing through his brain as he front
ed her In the midst of the vast myste
rious southern night.
"You have escaped!" she breathed
at length. "1 knew you would! Yet
this morning—"
Perceiving that she had forgotten to
loose his hand, she loosed It, as
though It had been hot metal.
"I have not escaped," he muttered.
"As for this morning—"
"Not escaped?"

painter like a younr pu*>py. No other

“Ashamed?" she queried. - “Aahamed

"Listen.”
And he related to her the Interview
on the Thamea that had ended In the
compact by which he had aaved hie
life.
“So It waa for money, after all, that
my villainous uncle did It!" ahe aaid
fiercely. Ah! If “
She broke off and remained allent.
"Well?" he preaaed her. "It waa a
■hameful compact I made? I ought to
have taken the rlaka. oughtn't I? I have
often thought bo alnre. I have con
nived at a crime! I'm what the 'law

“You did right," ahe said slowly. “A

Increased our sorrow to no purpose.
Some men would have sacrificed their
Uvea; they would have been brave,
but they would have been more foolish
than brave. Whereas ”
"Whereas I waa cowardly and sens!
ble." he put in.
She drew back with a proud gaature.
"Don’t talk ao," she protested. "Don’t
laugh at me. I can't bear It. If ever
there was a brave man, you are one.
Do you Imagine that I can’t appreciate
all the moral courage It demanded on
your part to do an unconventional
thing? Do you Imagine I don't under
stand that It needs less courage to do
the correct stupid thing and die, than
to act wisely and live?’
"Thank you,” he said. "You are
kinder to me than I could have been
myself. Thank you."
"See!" she broke forth. "If you of
fer me thanks I shall—I shall cry. It
Is I who have brought you Into -this
trouble. What you have done you did
out of sheer sympathy for me. And
what can I give In return? It Is I who
should go down on my knees to you. 1
She stopped, seeming to gasp, and re
aumed In another and quieter voice.
“He confessed, then?"
"Yes. He confessed. But he swore
he didn't mean to murder."
“But Varcoe. Didn't he mean to mur
der Varcoe?"
"He argued that Varcoe’s case was
-Jlflerenf."
e "What do you think of him—my
uncle?”
“He has a voice like yours,” said
Philip simply.
"Is that all?'*
"It Is enough.”
"You haven't told me about thla
morning?" She gased at him In tender
reproach. "Could you not have thrown
us a word—one word ? You do not know
what distress we have been suffering."
"A word would not have sufficed.”
said Philip. “In any case you could not
have come on board. He had given
orders. How could 1 have preached to
you In your boat from where I waa?
No, I did the one thing that I could do.
Besides, perhaps 1 was a little ashamed
of my situation, ashamed of being alive
under the circumstances. I have be
come nearly Intimate with that mur
Merer, you know. It sounds brutal.
But I have. There waa no-alternative.
Fourteen days on a yacht! And him
the master! What would you have?
I'll be honest—there have been mo
ments when l'v* almost forgotten that
he was a criminal. The situation was
extraordinary, very extraordinary."
"I can understand," she said softly.
“And what Is done Is done!"
"If I hadn’t become, as it were, In
tlmate with him," Philip continued,
“I very probably shouldn't be here now.
He would never have let me come.
And more tragedies might have hap
pened. You know I'm a very human
person, and after all I’m not aorry I’m
alive. I want to be useful. That's why
I’ve come—llko this.”
"But after your protfilse to him, how
can you be useful to us?” she asked,
“You say you gava your word to do
nothing either directly or Indirectly
against him.”
"Of course,” he answered. "You may
be sure that if he thought I should
work against him he wouldn't have
allowed me to leave the yacht. Nor
should I have asked permission.”
"Then?”
"I don't quite know how to explain
to you." he start mered.
"What?" the demanded. "Have 1 not
proved to you that I am capable of un
derstanding? Tell me at once why you
are here, If It It not to help us." There
was that In her voice which com
mapded.
"Your poor father Is dead," Philip re
sponded. speaking quietly and nerv
ously. “Forgive me—but nothing can
bring him to life. His money la gone,
but you do not want his money. The
past le the past. As you said Just
now, what Is done la done. Are you a
believer In capital punishment? I am
not. Are you ready to Judge and be
Judged? I know I'm talking strangely.
But my object Is to suggest to you on
board this ynchl that you abandon Mr.
Walter Pollexfen to his own devices—
that you don't trouble about him any
more. There! Now you have If"
He sighed heavily.
"With a man like Walter Pollexfen
agnlnat you," Philip went on, "the rlekt
you are running are tremendnue. He's
demonstrated that quite sufficient al
ready. Nearly anything might happen.
It's quite equIvafenV to a war—Tony
dogging him like this. He’s afraid. He
knows a lot, but he doesn't know all.
He Isn't sure If the police here haven't
been cabled to from London. He got
a pretty severe sort of a shock today
when he found himself sitting beside
you and Tony on the balcony of that
restaurant—oh! He told me all about
And so he's afraid. Hence he
agreed to my suggestion that I should
move over and urge you to go back to
England and—and forget that he had
arrived In the West Indies on a secret
errand.”
Is It for our sakes or for his that
you come, Mr. Ambassador?' said Mary
coldly.
"Can you ask?” said Mary coldly.
"Can you ask?" he returned deso
lately. "1 came solely because I wish
to avoid the possibility of—of 1
don't know what. Call it a few more
murders If you like. And I would ask
you to remember that no matter what
occurs. 1 have given my word to Wal
ter Pollexfen. I may have bought my
life too expensively. In spite or what
you say, but I have bought It, and .with
my word the purchase Is completed.
And I can't aak Pollexfen to give me
the price bark again. He’d refuse."
"Perhaps,” Mary said with an effort,
"you had better talk to Sir Anthony.
This Is his yacht. I'm only a guest."
"But you came!" he exclaimed eager
ly. "You came! You came to help to
find me!”
"It waa a euggeatlon of Mrs. Apple-,
