Lindsay. “Mr. Wrexford,” she began, “I am going to ask you to do me a great favor, and I want you to promise me to grant it; before I tell you what it me, I felt I might find pluck enough to drop overboard and so end the pur- suit for good and all. But' I did not know, and the doubt upon the point decided me to remain where I was and brave the upshot. As I watched her, I heard a footstep upon the deck behind me. I turned my head to find that it was Miss Mays bourne. She came up beside me, and having glanced ashore at the city nestling at- the foot of the great moun- tain, 'and then at the launch coming out to meet us. turned to address me. “I’m afraid I can hardly do that," I answered. “But it you will tell me what it is, I will promise to do it for you if it is in any way possible.” She looked- so pleadingly into my face that, as usual, it- required all my courage not to give way to her. But the risk was too great fer me even to contemplate such a thing for a mo- ment. My rescue of the daughter at Cornelius Maybourne, and my pres- ence in Cape Tawn, would soon leak out, and then it would be only a mat- ter of hours before I should be arrest- ed. Whatever my own inclinations may have been, I felt there was nothing for it but for me to refuse. _ I saw large tears rise in her eyes, though she turned hurriedly away in the hope that I should not see them. To see her weep, however, was more than I could bear, and under the in- fluence of her trouble my resolutions began to give way. After all, it I was destined to be arrested, I might just as well be taken at Mr. Maybourne's house as elsewhereâ€"perhaps better. Besides, it was more than likely, in the event of no warrant having been issued, Mr. Maybourne, whose influ- ence, I had been told, was enormous in the colony, might prove just the very friend of all others I wanted. At any rate, it I. were not taken before the time came for going ashore, I would do ‘as she wished. I told her this, and she immediately thanked me and went down below again. iuiréd 'I'looked at the last‘muned with no little apprehension; my net- vousness endowed him with all the attributes ot a police omcmknnd my mind’s eye could almost discover the manacles reposingiin his coat 1:.

There are the most vital rea- sons in the world against it. I can only ask you to belieye that." Just as I announced my decision the launch came alongside, and a mo- ment later her passengers were as- cending the accommodation ladder, which had been lowered to receive them. They were three in number, and includedâ€"so I was told by a. gentleman who stood beside meâ€"the harbor master, the oflicer of health, and another individual, about whose identity my? informant _was_ not quite IvaczilirVI' could be certain that she was conveying an omcer_ t_o arres_t experienced then.

At first he regarded me with a stare of surprise. but before he could ask me my business, Miss Maybourne had descended from the vehicle and was in his arms. Not desiring to interrupt them in their greetings I strolled down the path. But I was not per- mitted to go far before I heard my name called.

Half an hour ago I was the most miserable man under the sun! now that I have got my darling back safe and sound, I believe I am the happiest." “Had you then heard of the wreck of the ‘Fiji Princess?’ " I enquired. “Here is a telegram I received last night,” he said handing me a paper he had taken from his pocket. “You see it is from Tenerifle, and says that nothing has yet been heard of the vessel which was then more than a fortnight overdue. Agnes tells me that you were rescued by the King of Cart- hage.

I saw fromgthe way he looked at me that he expected me to do the narrating, so I did so, commencing with the striking of the vessel on the rock, and winding up with an account of our rescue by the King of Carthage. He listened with rapt attention until I had finished, and then turned to his daughter. “Has Mr. Wrextord told me every- thing?” he asked with a smile. “No,” she answered. “He has not told you half enough. He has not told you that when I tell overboard one night, when we were of: the Spanish coast, he sprang over after me and held me up until a boat came to our assistance.

The available men all know too much. and I have private reasons for wishing this mine to be well looked after. Now the question is, would you care for the post?” Needless to say, I embraced “the op- portunity in much the same manner as a hungry trout jumps at a fly. It I could only manage to get up there without being caught the appointment would suit me in every way.

Circngnstnnces had placed an insuriheuntable barrier between myself and any thought of marriage with his daughteru As the result of our conversation, and at my special desire, it was ar- ranged that I should start for my post on the following day. Nobody could have been more eager than I was to be out in the wilds. But. with it all, my heart felt sad when I thought that after tomorrow I might never see the woman I so ardently loved again. Since the previous night, when on the promenade-deck of the steam- er I had told her or my love. neither otushndreterredinnnywaytothe subject. So remote was the chance that I should ever be able to make her my wife that I determined so tar as possible, to prevent myself from giving any thought to the idea. But I was not destined after all to leave without reierring to the matter. That evening after dinner we were sitting in the verandnh outside the drawing-room, when the butler came to intorm Mr. Maybourne that s neighbor had called to see him.
