Here was something waiting for his hand to be done, and it was not in his nature to lie down and sleep or die when any task remained undone. body seemed torn by the oncoming pangs of dissolution. He was a tool to hang on. He had died a score of deaths already. and. what was the use of prélonglng It in twoscore deaths before he really died? Not only was he pot afraid to die, but he deslred to die. Sheldon nodded his head. but did not look. Much as he had loved Hughie Dmmmond. his death and the funeral it entailed seemed an intolerable bur- den to add to what he was already sinking under. He had a feeling-â€" nay. it was a certitude-that all he Ind to do was to shut his eyes and let go and that he would die. sink into immensity of rest. His weary “Marster.†one of them ventured. “big fella wind he come. strong fella too much." Sheldon turned to his partner. calling for boys to carry him into the house. But Hughie Drummond had reached the end. His breathing was impercep- tible. By mere touch Sheldon could ascertain that the dying man's tem- perature was going down. it must have been going down when the thero mometer registered one hundred and seven. He had burned out. Sheldon knelt beside him. the house boys group- ed around. their white singlets and loin cloths peculiarly at variance with their dark skins and savage counte- nances, their huge ear plugs and carved and glistening nose rings. Sheldon tattered to his feet at last and half fell into the steamer chair. Oppreso sive as the heat had been it was now even more oppressive. It was ditii- cult to breathe. He panted for air. The faces and naked arms of the house boys were headed with sweat. “Right 0. I’ll come myselt. Mr. Uohnson’s dead. sir. I forgot to tell youâ€"three days ago." “No.†Sheldon answered. “Is it down?" “It’s going down.†“Then you’d better sleep aboard to- night." was Sheldon’s Judgment. “Never mind the funeral. I’ll see to poor Hughte. If you can see your way to it. come ashore tomorrow and tend the a hand. It you can’t. send the mate." “Have you seen the barometer?†Cap- tain Oleson asked. pausing at the bot tom of the steps on his way to oversee the disembarkatlon or the sick.

Some were sent Into the woods to cut timber for house beams. others to cutting cane grass for thatching and forty of them lift- ed a whale boat above their heads and Carried it down to the sea.

He slipped his anchors. leav- ling them buoyed to be picked up in { better weather. The Jessie swung otr ‘ under her full staysall; then the fore, sail. double reefed. was run up. She was away like a race horse. clearing Balesuna shoal with halfa cable length i to spare. Just before she rounded the 3 point she was swallowed up in a tero riï¬c squall that far outblew the ï¬rst. All that night. while squall after squall smote Berande. uprooting trees. overthrowing copra sheds and rocking the house on its tail piles. Sheldon slept. He was unaware of the com- motion. He never wakened. nor did he change his position or dream. He awoke a new man. Furthermore. he was hungry. It was over a week since food had passed his lips. He drank a glass or condensed cream thinned with water. and by 10 o'clock he dared to take a cup of beef tea. He was cheered also by the situ- ation in the hospital. Despite the storm there had been but one death. and there was only one fresh case. while hair a dozen boys crawled weak- ly away to the barracks. He wonder- ed if it was the wind that was blow- ing the disease away and cleansing the pestilential land. 1 He crawled out on the veranda. The rain had ceased. but the wind, which had dwindled to a half gale. was in- creasing. A big sea had sprung up. and the mile long breakers. curling up to the overfall 200 yards from the shore. were crashing on the beach. The Jessie was plunging madly to two anchors. and every second or third sea broke clear over her bow. Two flags were stiifly undulating from the halyards like squares of flexible sheet iron. One was blue. the other red. He knew their meaning in the Berande private code: “What are your instructions? Shall l attempt to land boat?" Tucked on the wall between the signal locker and the billiard rules was the code itself. by which he veri- fled the signal before making answer. 4 On the flagstafl' gafl' a boy hoisted a ' white flag over a red, which stood for. “Run to Neal island for shelter." ; “Now. if I don't get the fever." he said aloud and at the same moment resolved to go to taking quinine as soon as be was: strong enough to dare. Wet through and exhausted. he was nevertheless surprised at the ease with which he got into a change of cloth- ing. Though he was fearfully weak. he found himself actually feeling better. The disease had spent itself. and the mend had begun. So they fought their way back up the beach. The other blacks caught hold of the man-horse and pulled and tugged. There were among them those whose tondest desire was to drag the rider in the sand and spring upon him and mash him into repulsive nothing- ness. But the automatic pistol in his belt. with its rattling. quick dealing death. and the automatic. death defy- ing spirit in the man himself made them retrain and buckle down to the task of hauling him to safety through the storm. “‘He’s sleeping out and far to-I night.’ " Sheldon quoted as he thought of the dead man in the sand and the “"*â€â€â€â€œâ€â€â€œ*900066 rainwater trickling down upon the cold ' : ., Pg,» A"- ; 1 clay. i A ‘ ' ‘ So they fought their way bach hp ' i E DUCAT 1 ON AL- L---L "‘L- -41.-..

The wind was falling, but a mighty sea was still thundering in on Bio-rande beach, the flying spray reach- . ing in as far as the flagstaï¬â€™ mounds. Q the foaming wash creaming against the gateposts. He had taken thirty grains of quinine. and the drug was . buzzing in his ears like a nest of hor- nets. making his hands and knees ‘ tremble and causing a sickening pal- pitation of the stomach. Once. open- ing his eyes. he saw what he took to be a hallucination. Not far out and coming in across the Jessie's anchor- age he saw a whalehoat’s nose thrust skyward on a smoky crest and disd appear naturally. as an actual whale- J boat's nose should disappear. as it slid down the back of the sea.
