MANAGER l Like a politic captain, Morgan had I, done his best to get the men whom i he had subdued by his intrepid cour- , age and consummate address into good humor. Rum and spirits were served liberally, work was lightâ€"in fact, none except the necessary seaman‘s duties were required of the men, although an hour or two every day were em- ployed in hard drill with swords, small arms and great guns. In martial exercises the veterans were perfect, and they assiduously endeavored to lmnart their knowledge to the rest. “And that will fetch us where?†ask- ed the old man, who was charged with the duty of the practical sailing of the ship. “To La Guayra and Venezuela.†“Oho!†said the old boatswain. “St. Jago de Leon, Caracas, t’other side of the mountains, will be our prize?†In the intervening time the south sea buccaneers had picked up wonder- fully. These men, allured by the hope of further plunder under a captain who had been so signally successful in the past and in the present, constituted a most formidable auxiliary to Mor- gan’s original crew. Indeed, with the exception of the old hands, they were the best of the lot. L’Ollonois had been admitted among the ofï¬cers on “Aye,†answered Morgan. “ ’Tis a rich place and has been unpillaged for a hundred years.†“'0 days later they made a landfall off the terriï¬c coast of T Caracas, where the tree clad V mountains soar into the clouds abruptly from the level or the sea, where the surf beats without intermis- sion even in the most peaceful weather upon the narrow strip of white sand which separates the blue waters of the Caribbean from the massive cliffs that tower above them. a suitable footing, and there was little or no friction among the crews. They were getting hammered into shape, too, under Morgan’s hard drilling, and it was a vastly more dangerous body of men than the drunken gang who had sailed from Jamaica. discernible.

I’ll remember that,†answer- ed Morgan. It was Morgan’s plan to run boldly into La Guayra under the Spanish flag. No one could possibly take the Almi- rante Recalde for anything but a Span- ish ship. There was no reason for sus- pecting the presence of an enemy, for Spain had none in these seas. If there were other ships in the roadsteadâ€"for the harbor of La Guayra was really nothing more than an open roadâ€"the buccaneer could easily dispose of them in their unprepared condition. Indeed, Morgan rather hOped that there might be others, for after he captured them he would have a greater force of guns to train upon the forts of the town, which he expected to take without much dlï¬lculty, and then be governed In his maneuvers toward Caracas by circumstances as they arose. “That’s well," sald the old bucca- neer. “Take him forward, men, and let him have all the rum he wants to take out the chill of his wetting.†“Wilt obey me in the future?†cried the captain to the repentant man. And as the ship slowly paid on and gathered way the white squall broke upon them. The sea was a-smother with mist and rain. The wind whipped through the shrouds and rigging, but everything held. Taking a great bone in her teeth, the old Almirante Recalde heeled far over to leeward and ripped through the water to the southward at such a pace as she had never made before. On the quarter deck a drench- ed, shivering and sobbing ï¬gure knelt at Morgan’s feet and kissed his hand. “’Fore God, I will, sir,†answered Sawkins. Two days after the capture of the gulleon, then, with the wind fresh from the northeast. on a gray, threatening stormy morning. she was running to the westward along the shore.

Author of “The Southerners." “For Love of Country." “The Grip of Honor." Etc. G. W. DILLINGHAPI COMPANY Consequently he was most reluctant that morning, for his passion had in- creased with each o‘errun league of sea, to bear away from La Guayra, which was the port of entry for Cara- cas. But even his ardent spirit was at last convinced of the necessity. It was blowing a gale now, and they were so near the shore, although some dis- tance to the eastward of the town, that they could see the surf breaking with tremendous force upon the strip of sand. The ofï¬cers and older men had observed the course of the ship with growing concern, but no one had ven- turod to remonstrate with Morgan un- til old Ben Hornigold as a privileged character ï¬nally summoned his courage and approached him. "Mark yon shore, Captain Morgan,†he said, and when he made up his mind he spoke boldly. “The wind treshens. We’re trighttully near. Should it come on to blow we could not save the ship. You know how unseamanly these Span- uh hulk: are." “Bight you are, Hornigold.†answer- ed Morgan, yet frowning heuvfly. “Cum thin wind!

There she had been received with due honor, as became the daugh- ter of so prominent a personage, by the vice governor and his wretched wife. Morgan’s heart had been in- flamed by the dark, passionate beauty of the Spanish maiden. It was only by a severe restraint enjoined upon himself by his position that he had re- frained from abusing the hospitality he extended by seizing her in the old buccaneer fashion. The impression she had made upon him had been lasting. and when he found himself alone, an outlaw, all his dreams of the future centered about this woman. He would carry out the plans which he had outlined to his men, but the Pearl of Caracas, for so Donna Mer- cedes was called, must accompany him to the south seas to be the island queen of that buccaneer empire of which he was to be the founder. That Donna Mercedes might object to this proposi- tion. that she might love another man, might even be married by this time, counted for nothing in Morgan’s plans. He had taken what he wanted by dint of his iron will and the strength of his right arm in the past, and he should continue the process in the future. Morgan was a bold and skillful mar- lner, and he held his course parallel to the land much longer than was pru- dent. He was loath, indeed, to aban- don even temporarily a design upon which he had determined, and as he had rapidly run down his southing in this brief cruise his determination had been quiekened by the thought of his growing nearness to the Pearl of Ca- racas until for the moment loveâ€"or what he called loveâ€"had almost made him forget the treasure in the ship be- neath his feet, for the Pearl of Cara- ms was a woman.

The vet- erans who were familiar with local conditions in the Caribbean studied the northeastern skies with gloomy dis- satisfaction. The wind was blowing dead inshore, and as the struck bells denoted the passing hours with each half hourly period it grew appreciably stronger. If it continued to blow or if, as it was almost certain, the strength of the wind increased it would be impossible without jeopardizing the ship to come to anchor in the exposed roadstead. They would have to run for it. Nay, more, they would have to beat out to sea against it, for the coast line beyond La Guayra turned rapidly to the northward. The men were armed to the teeth. There happened to be a goodly supply of arm: on the Spanish ship, in addi- tion to those the buccaneera had brought with them, which were all dia- trihuted. Ed. The Sea lamina had been cast 08, although the gun tackles were careful. ly «cured, for the wind was blowing fmher and the sea running heavier every hour. Nmbudthatvillainappeared Thus during the long morning they endeavored to claw off the lee shore. Morgan luffed the ship through the heavy squalls which rose to the vio- lence of a hurricane with consummate skill. Absolutely fearless, a master of his profession, he did all with that ship that mortal man: could have done. yet their situation became more and more precarious. They had long since passed La Guayra. They had had a fleeting glimpse of the shipping in the harbor driving helplessly on shore as they dashed by under the gray clouds which had overspread the sea. That town was now hidden from them by a bend of the coast, and they found themselves in a curious bi‘ght of land, extending far into the ocean in front of them. The mountains here did not so nearly approach the water line, and from the look of the place there ap- peared to be a shoal projecting some distance into the ocean from the point ahead. Some of the buccaneers who knew these waters conï¬rmed the indi- cations by asserting the existence of the shoal. The shaking shrouds were soon cov- ered with masses of men, and as the ship was exceedingly well handled the canvas was promptly snugged down by the eager crew. Iâ€"Iornigold, with young Teach to assist him, went to the helm. Morgan gave his personal attention to the maneuvering of the ship. and the other ofï¬cers stationed themselves where they could best promote and die met the efforts of the seamen. “Aye, aye, sir, and quick!†“Aloft,†yelled Morgan, “and take in the to’gallant s'l’s! Close reef the top. 8’13 and double reef the courses, then!" In spite of all that Morgan could do it was quite evident that they could not weather the shoal on their present tack. There was not sea room to wear and bear up on the other tack. The vessel, in fact, like all ships in those days and especially Spanish galleons, had a tendency to go to leeward like a barrel, and only Morgan’s resourceful seamanship had saved them from the fatal embraces of the shore long since. The canvas she was carrying was more than she could legitimately bear in such a hurricane. If there had been sea room Morgan would have stripped her to bare poles long since. but under the circumstances it was necessary for him to retain full control and direction of the ship; so, although he reduced “ Ve’ll have to get sail off her, I'm thinking, Hornigold,†said Morgan. In a few moments the great ship, her yards braced sharply up, was headed out to seaward on the starboard tack. The wind was now blowing a whole gale, and the masts of the ship were bending like whips. “BEES-W th'é'braces thefe!†shout- ed Morgan, following, with apprehen- sion, the outstretched ï¬nger. of the old boatswain. “Ease down the helm! :race up!

Usually in those lati- tudes it deepened tremendously a short distance from the low water mark, and there was a grave question whether or not the anchor, with the scope they could give it, would reach bottom. At any rate, it must be tried, and tried now. Morgan had held on as long as he dared. Another minute and they would strike. “And certain death to hold on,†add- ed the Frenchman. “Have you anything else to propose, airs?†asked Morgan sharply. “We can’t tack ship against this wind and sea. There’s no room to wear. What’s to do?" The men made no answer. “Forward there!†cried the old buc- caneer. And it was astonishing the force and power with which he made himself heard in spite of the roar of the wind and the smash ot the sea. “Get the lee anchor 06 the bows there!
