CHAPTER THIRTY-MN E It was a cry from the depth of a man’s soul. Into that utterance of her name he seemed to have packed a dozen emotions: there were anger, grief, tenderness, renunciation, and something too of heart-break. All this and more she heard in it, and to the spirit in that cry she made surrender of her own spirit. She nestled closer, softly murmuring to him: “Do not leave me alone again while we are here! Promise me.” “Can you suppose it?” he answered passionately, “Can you dream 1 should ever again leave you exposed to that?” He bent down to the golden head that rested against his breast, and reverently touched it with his lips, scarcely aware of what he did, as he thus expressed an overmastering emotion into which his fears for her had betrayed him. It was at this point that the Major, a spectator in whom amazement had been piled upon amaze inent, accounted it necessary to interfere, before Priscilla, newly wrenched from the importunate arms of one buccaneer, should melt; too completely into those of an- ( other. "Stab me!” quoth he, rolling forward, “what’s here?” The indignation rumbling in his voice, awakened de Bernis to realities, arrested him in that easy and increasing surrender to emotion. His recovery of his ready wits was abrupt and complete. Without relaxing his hold upon the girl, or making the least change in his attitude, he spoke swiftly through his teeth. “Will you ruin all, you fool? What are you supposing? Is she not my wife in the eyes of that man who is gaping at us at this moment? I have a part to play, sir. Begone! Leave me to play it.” The Major gaped, relieved. “I beg your pardon, de Bernis.” He hung there, hesitating. “As her brother, it is natural I, too, should remain to comfort. I have done nothing to betray you." But Miss Priscilla evidently considered that the comedy had gone far enough. As if also recalled to realities, she disengaged herself from de Bemis’ arm, moved away to a ehair, and sat down, like one exhausted. She was still very white, and dark shadows had gathered under her eyes. Her left hand was still clutching to her breast the tattered portions of the bodice. “If you would both leave me for a little while,” she begged them. Understanding, they went. They paced the beach awhile, the Major j inveighing furiously but impotent!y, and seeming to embrace Mon- | sieur de Bernis together with Tom ■ Leach in the scope of that windy invective. Monsieur de Bernis, heeding him not at all. indeed scarcely heeling him. paced beside him in I moody abstraction. He awakened from that at last to hear the Major saying. “Os late, sir, I have been giving I you my trust. But 1 warn you that, I unless you can keep these cutI throat friends of yours in order, that trust will be destroyed." “In such a case, sir, you would have my sympathy," said de Bemis, and upon that abruptly quitted the Major’s side Looking round for an explanation of a conduct that seemed to him so odd, Major Sands saw Pierre emerging from among the trees. It was towards him that de Bernis was hurrying. The Major followed, grumbling ever. I He heard the faint mutter of Pierre’s rapid French as de Bemis approached him, and at what the half-caste said, his master’s should- | ders sagged a little, and he stood very still and very pensive, his lip between finger and thumb.

After a moment, by when Major Sands was at his elbow, he spoke, but whether to himself or to Pierre, who stood before him, waiting, was not plain. Even th» Major’s scant knowledge of French enabled him to understand what de Bernis said. “Nevertheless, it is necessary to do something.” After which he paced away slowly towards the hut, and then, like » man who takes a sudden resolve, swung on his heel, and set out briskly to walk across the beach towards the buccaneer encampment. As he approached it, a couple of men who were boucanning turtle over a fire, looked up and greeted 1 him with the friendly familiarity > which he had encouraged in them. But for once he swung past them ’ without noticing it. 1 It was already a little after noon, and in the Captain’s hut, the leadI ers were sitting down to dinner, • when Monsieur de Bemis suddenly ■ made his appearance among them, his aspect stem and forbidding. Tom Leach, who by now had cooled to a state of viciousness that r superficially at least was normal. ' eyed him furtively and at first. ■ startled by that sudden entrance, in apprehension. Hut the emotion i was not one that ever lasted long ' with Leach. It passed in a flash, - leaving him armed in brazen impur dence to meet the attack which he i had every cause to expect. 1 Monsieur de Bemis came to the r empty foot of the table, directly facing Leach who occupied the ; head. On the Frenchman’s right , were Bundry and Halliwell. on his - left Ellis and Wogan. All four of ', them looked up from their meat, to gape at his preter-natural gravi ity. i, His voice was cold and hard and e brisk, his speech direct and peremptory. “You may have some notion of o what brings me. Captain. I have a e warning for you. I need waste no . unnecessary words upon it. If the s plate fleet matters to you and you , wish me to bring you to it, you’ll be civil henceforth, and you'll avoid f my quarters.’ 3 “By heaven ...” Leach was begint ning, half-rising in his seat - “Wait!” thundered de Bemis, and 1 by tone and gesture thrust him > back momentarily silenced The Frenchman swung to Leach’a offi-

cers. “If the plate fleet matters to you, and you desire that 1 bring you to it, you’ll see that he obeys my injunction. If I have a repetition of what happened this morning, if Tom Leach ventures within twenty yards of my encampment again, come what may, I dissociate myself from you, and 1 vow to you here that not a single piece of eight of all that treasure will any one of you ever touch. If I am to respect my articles, Tom Leach shall respect my wife, and you others shall see that he respects her.” The Captain’s dark eyes gleamed their hatred and malice as they met the bold, challenging glance of de Bemis across the length of the table. From the others there were mutterings of resentment provoked by the Frenchman’s arrogant tone and air. But one there was who spoke out, and this was the impassive, clay-faeed Bundry. He turned his shoulder to de Bemis, so as to face the Captain. “So you’ve neglected the warning we gave you, Captain?” he said ( in that level voice of his that could be so threatening in its iciness. The momentary flash of de Bernis’ eyes might have betrayed the discovery made to him by those words. But at the time all were looking at the Captain, awaiting his reply. Surprised, however, bv Bundry’s cold, obvious challenge, Leach was momentarily at a loss; whilst de Bemis, encouraged by signs of a support he had not suspected, took advantage of (he pause to turn the sword in the wound, which, exceeding all expectations, he perceived he had made I have this to add, Tom, and you would do well to reflect upon to take it for a compass by which to steer your eourse: To the success of this enterprise against the Spaniard, lam necessary. You are not The enterprise can quite well go forward without you. It cannot go forward without me. 1 say no more. But if you have any prudence in your foul head Tom ‘ you’ll use it to rake together some scraps of decency, and put them in your conduct. That is all. The quarrel may end here if you so choose: or it may go forward if you choose. I leave you to decide it." (Tc Be Continued)
