DOUBLOONS
A THRILLING NOVEL OF MYSTERY,
TRAGEDY AND A STOLEN FORTUNE
By EDEN PHILLPOTTS AND ARNOLD BENNETT
CHAPTER XXIX.
Auekengray’s Second Sight,
•'Hullo,' Tony!” sold Philip with an
affectation of Imperturbable calm
atood at the door of the drawing room
galoon, holding aside the green portleA
with one hand. Sir Anthony was seat
ed at the little Broadwood piano, ab
sently engaged In the Infantile game
pushing down the keys without making
a sound. One of Mrs. Appleby's most
emotional songs, "O Dry Those Tears."
was open on the music stand. The
baronet turned, saw Philip, grasped the
fact that it really was Philip, and
then vented his first explosion of sur
prise In a terrific oath Involving him
self, and beginning with the first per
son singular of the present tense of an
auxiliary verb. Nothing but that par
ticular oath would have met the case.
He strode half way across the floor,
then stopped, and deliberately repeated
the oath.
Whereupon they met and shook
hands.
It la difficult for complex and self-
observant souls to behave quite natu
rally under stress of such strange meet
ings. but Tony's soul was simple, and
he behaved with perfect naturalness.
His pleasure and satisfaction and curi
osity expressed themselves freely and
naively, and the greatest of these was
perhaps his satisfaction. He forgot
Instantly the failure of the day and the
list of his stupidities, and saw only
that he had traversed half the world to
find Philip and had found him. His
opinion of himself flew up like a flag,
and he honestly thought that Sir An-
thdny was one of the cleverest fellows
on earth.
"Well, well, old chap!” he bussed
glowingly round Philip. "You see I
got your famous salver all right, and
came after you at once. And here we
are! Well, well! Came straight to
Scent breast high, upon my word.

both you and the police
also.”
Tony blushed at mention of the po-
I™, He had not quite ([or-otten his
hoodwinking of the morn.
The police have been Informed,"
said he, awkwardly. "But they would
nave nothing to do with my expedition.
I expect they are still poking about
London to And Pollexfen.”
,L' ke ’em." Philip observed.
Now, old chap, to business. You've
decided you won't give up the Job."
Im d d If I do,” said Sir Anth
ony. "I'll see It through. Pollexfen
may get his precious treasure, but
what s he going to do with It when he
gets it? We'll follow him everywhere
till we can put him in Jail.”
"Pardon the liberty, sir,” Oxwlch put
"But do you believe everything
that everybody tells you?”
"What do you mean?"
/'I mean, sir, about this treasure
store. It seems to me It's rather late
In Anno Domini for a smart chap like
this Pollexfen to be hunting for treas
ure. If he's really serious he must
have slipped by accident Into the
wrong century."
"I neither believe nor disbelieve.'
Philip answered. "I know Pollexfen Is
one of the greatest actors alive. And
I admit him to be capable of deceiv
ing any one about anything. But still
I Incline to the opinion that he has
not deceived me on this point, ond
that he Is certainly searching for
doubloons."
Doubloons!" 8tr Anthony repeated
the gorgeous word. Impressed.
"And my notion Is that when a man
like Pollexfen Is seriously searching
for doubloons and has committed a
homicide or so In furtherance of his
quest doubloons are likely to be about.
. . You don't think so, Oxwlch?'
‘To be frank, sir,” said Oxwlch,
i not.”
. “I was of your opinion at first. Ox
wlch." He looked at his watch. “Time'
up," he said.
"But how ore you going back? You
won't have one of our boats, my son,
>:?“■ vo!f"vmi “» promise you,” said Sir Anthony.
Now tell me how you got aboard. You - ' White Rose's boat waiting along.

"I wont a drink," said Philip, drop

"Of course you do. Oxwlch!
ring for Oxwlch.”
And he rang. The electric bell was
out of order, but a sufficiently loud ell
ver gong stood on a slije table with
lot of bottles and glasses.
The demeanor of Oxwlch, who, en
tering with extreme quietude, saw Phil
Ip before Philip saw him, was a pleas.
Ing study in self-control. He had the
heroism to display no symptom of even
the mildest until Philip spoke to him.
"Glad to see you again, Oxwlch."
"Very kind of you, sir. I am more
than glad to see you, sir." That was
all. He rubbed his hands slowly.
"Whisky and soda, eh?" Tony ques
tloned abrutly.
Philip nodded.
"Whisky and soda. Yes, sir," said
Oxwlch, going to the side table,
turned his head and Inquired with
steady features: ''Stiff, Mr. Masters?"
"Stiff, Oxwlch.”
"Mine, too, Oxwlch," said Sir An
thony.
"I may as well tell you at once,
said Philip, taking the glass ceremon
lously offered by Oxwlch, "1 cant stop
here. I’ve got to go back. I'm only
here on leave. I must get away again
to the other yacht. Oxwlch, will you
refill my glass? Thanks.”
He then succinctly gave the Informa,
tlon which he had already Imparted to
Mary.
“Why, man, you’re mad!” Tony ex.
claimed.
••Am I?" said Philip. "And what
would you do In my place? Break your
word ?’
"Another, sir?" Oxwlch mildly asked,
"No, thanks.”
"Do you hear this, Oxwlch?" the
baronet cried. "Mr. Masters Intends
in go back to the scoundrel, and what
Is more, ho wants us to give up the ex
pedition." His accent on the word
•expedition’ narrowly escaped the sub
lime.
"But listen, Oxwlch," Philip argued,
addressing the man Instead of the mas
ter. "You know enough of Pollexfen
to know how dangerous the thing Is.
Sir Anthony has no Idea what he Is
going In for."
"Might I ask, sir, what this Pollex
fen Is going In for?" Oxwlch observed.
"Treasure,” said Philip. "And he
means to get It, and to get all of It,
"In the immediate district, sir?"
"At the Grand—No, I canpot talk
about that. I was forgetting my
promise.”
"Just so, sir. You stopped Just In
time, didn't you, sir?"
"And you must remember,” said
Philip, glancing at Tony, "that you've
got ladles on board."
"Leave ’em ashore here," Tony re
turned. _
"If I may venture to say so, sir,’ Ox.
wlch remarked, ”1 doubt whether the
ladles would consent to be left. But,
on the other hand, I do not see the
danger. Considering that the Wander
er is guaranteed to steam thirteen
knots and can really steam twelve,
whereas It appears that the White
Rose can only steam eight, I do not tee
the danger, at any rate to those who
remain on board the Wanderer. If I
hnve aright the lessons of the last
naval manoeuvres, we should always
be able to choose our distance.”
"Yes, of course," said Sir Anthony.
"That’s exactly what I was thinking.
Nothing can prevent us from keeping
Pollexfen In sight, rnd we run no risk
In doing so."
“That depends," said Philip.
"What does It depend on?”
"It depends on Pollexfen. I've not
spent a fortnight with him for noth
ing. Are the police on his track, too?
Because I back him to be equal to

really came over for was to explain my
position to you.” He took Tony af
fectionately by the shoulder. ”1 shall
be all right. I've made my bed amri
fancy I can He on It. See one another
again when this little nffalr Is over.
Au revolr, Oxwlch." And he shook
Oxwlch's unwilling hand.
There was a certain amount of feel
Ing In the air.
"I suppose you've heard of 'force ma
Jeure,’ sir,” Oxwlch remarked, tran
qullly. -v
"Vaguely," Philip smiled. "Why?
"You are going back to that rascal
In the White Rose, sir, If I may say
so. In pursuance of a promised word.
You gave your oath you wouldn't do
anything agalnit him, and you gave
your oath to return."
"I did."
"Well, sir, there's an article in The
Encyclopedia Brltannlca that says that
an oath of promise given under 'force
majeure,' If I may use the term, li
not binding, either morally or legal
ly.”
Philip laughed.
"That’s not good enoui
sslcl-he.' "You have advantage of me
as regards the Encyclopedia Brltannl
ca. But you know I'm an English
man."
rather expected you would say
that, sir," Oxwlch rejoined. "And "
didn't suppose that sort of an ency
clopedla argument would appeal to you.
But," he turned to his master, "there's
another sore of force majeure, and
another sort of argument. Sir Anthony,
that will appeal to Mr. Masters, even
If he's an Englishman fifty t|mes over.
As I am myself, sir,"
"What’s that?"
"The brute force argument, sir. If
may say so. Mr. Masters might be
R sevented from leaving the yacht. 'We’
ave given no promise to tills Pollex
fen person. We owe no explanations
to this Pollexfen person. We didn't ask
Mr. Masters to come on board—Excuse
me, sir, I'm sure I'm delighted you've
come/’
“By Jove, Oxwlch," Sir Anthony
stamped his feet. “That's just what I
was thinking myself. Why should we
let Mr. Masters go? We won't let
you go, old man. Consider yourself our
prisoner. We'll keep you.”
It was as If a thunderstorm had sud
denly gathered Its forces around them
and was about to break.
"Will you?” said Philip queerly.
think not"
"Oh, nonsense!" the baronet laughed
awkwardly. "Come, old man. You'll
give up." And he selxed hts arm.
"Loose me,” said Philip, flushing,
Loose me! Don't be a fool. What
kind of a nice position are you going
to put me In?"
"I don't think that Mr. Masters' feel
ings ought to be taken Into considera
tion, Sir Anthony. Of course, he must
struggle. We recognise that. But you
and I, sir, will be too many for him.”
The two men closed on Philip, who
fought desperately and with swift an
ger.
Do you think Pm struggling for the
sake of struggling?" he exclaimed. “Let
me go. It's disgraceful. I've promised,
and my promise has got to be kept”
"That's It, sir," said Oxwlch, breath
ing hard. "Stick to his arm. We can
lock him up In the smoking room,
sir."
As Oxwlch spoke these words
slight sound came from the smoking
room, which communicated with the
drawing room; but the three men were
too deeply absorbed In themselves to
hear It. The battle waged hotly; two
chairs were overturned; a glass was
knocked from the table and found dis
aster on the carpet.
And then Sir Anthony caught sight
of a figure In the doorway at the op-

poslte end of the saloon from the smok,
Ing room, and he Instinctively desisted
from the attack. Mary Pollexfen stood
there, pale In her white dress against
the dark background. She' was mo,
tinnless; she might have been there
long time.
“What are you doing. Sir Anthony
she asked In a faltering voice, and
stepped forward Into the room.
Oxwlch collected himself and
aumed the valet's posture, but his era
vat was accusingly untied.
"We—we're stopping Phil from run
nlng off," replied the baronet.
“And does Mr. Masters want tp be
stopped ?'■
"No, I don't," said Philip with fierce
emphasis. "I don’t, and I won’t be!"
"I may be wrong, Sir Anthony," Mary
said, “but I think Mr. Masters ought
to decide."
She was glorious In that Instant
with dilated nostrils, eyes flashing, and
arm regally uplifted.
“But, Miss Pollexfen, If I may rtn
ture"—Oxwlch began.
“Oxwlch!" his master thundered.
"Good-bye," said Philip. "Miss Pol
lexfen, I'm obliged to you. Good-bye."
He passed out of the saloon and up
the companion, and the others followed
In silence. It was a singular scene,
peculiarly Illustrative of the English
character. The moment the saloon was
empty. Coco came Into the smoking
room.
Five minutes later those on the deck
of the "Wanderer" followed with their
eyes a moving train of phosphorescence
as It receded mysteriously over the
water to the dying flash of oars. The
captain and crew had slept through the
episode the righteous sleep of honest
tars In port.
The next morning at 8 o'clock the
“Wanderer" was coaling, and Captain
Chetwodc In a bad temper, as captains
Invariably are during such operations.
It was observed that the "White Rose"
also was coaling, and since she could
be satisfied with less coal than the
“Wanderer" she had finished first, and
she was off westward.
"Sir Anthony, his nerves afflicted by
the experience of the night, requested
Captain Chetwode to keep her In sight
much as he might have told the driver
of one cab In Piccadilly to follow an
other cab In Piccadilly. And Captain
Chetwode, ever on the watch for an
Instant, resented the Instructions. What
he resented more than the Instructions
was the air of mystery that surrounded
Sir Anthony, Mary and Oxwlch. In
spite of his admirable pretence of hav
Ing no curiosity, he hated to be kept
out of a secret. The boy and the boy's
mother had not yet awakened.
Just before weighing anchor a re
markable discovery p*as made. Htftl It
been In the manner in which It was
meant to have been made, the result
would have been serious. Happily ma.
tine engineers have a "flair" In regard
to their machinery which amounts to
the magic of second-sight. Some mys
terious Impulse prompted Auchengray
to send a boat around to Inspect the
screw. Why should he have done so*
There was no reason save that he was
a marine engineer and Auchengray.
then became apparent that some un
known had wound a one-inch chain
cable round the rudder post and round
two blades of the propeller. The trick
had been accomplished with malignant
Ingenuity, In such manner that one
revolution of the‘engine would certain
ly have smashed or fatally twisted the
blades of the propeller. But for Au-
chengray's "flair” the yacht might have
been laid up In Bridgetown for a week
or a month. As It was, the delay did
not exceed an hour.
