He had not seen Mrs. Vansittart since they came to the rock. and he was shocked by the change in her appearance’. He did not like her. His alert intelligence distrusted her. But it was not his business in life to select a wife for his uncle, as he put it, and he had al- ways treated her with respectful p0 liteness.

She held out a scrap of paper. “Mr. Traill is here." she said quiet- For some reason Mrs. Vanelttart seemed to be greatly perturbed.

"But, please, I am not Joklng a little bit. When you go ashore you will probably hear all about me, so I may as well take the wind out of the sails of gossip. 1 am a mere waif, who came selling in out or the West one clay in a little boat which must have ome from the.
