CHAFFER FIFTY-THREE “Oddsfish! If ever there was a rogue who knew how to pluck victory from defeat, how to win advantage from disaster, you are that rogue, indeed, Charles. It’s not the first time ye’ve pushed hack the springs of a gin that held ye. Ye may thank the ready fertility of your lying. Faithl Ye’ve a great gift of it, whatever.” “If ye mean the fable of the Spanish plate fleet,” said de Bernis. “you are not to suppose that was an invention of the moment. It had been long premeditated. It was the lure with which from the i outset I had meant to draw Leach to Maldita. The fact that he was in need stf careening was no more than 1 expected of him He always was; for he was always a bad seaman.” When the tale was done, and whilst Sir Henry was ladling out a punch of rum and limes and sugar which the steward had prepared for them. Captain Aldridge stirred in his chair to ask a question. “You have made all clear but , one thing. What I don’t understand I is why you should have fought ■ Leach this morning when we were already off Maldita. Since you I knew that we had but to close our I grip so as to hold him, why the devil should you have risked your life against him?” “Risk?” Monsieur de Bernis was contemptuous. “That was no risk, Leach may have been a swordsman to pirates; to a swordsman he was just a pirate.” "Ye 11 need a better answer, Charles,” Morgan admonished him. For once de Bernis appeared , self-conscious. He hesitated; then j shrugged. “Oh, there were reasons, of course. For one thing I owed it to him.” Almost unconsciously his dark eyes travelled to Priscilla, who was steadily regarding him, then back again to Morgan’s great yellow countenance. “He had used expressions to be answered in no other way, and he had done things payment for which 1 choose to regard as my’ persona! concern. Besides. Morgan, if Leach had been alive when you hove in sight, be sure there would have been no such tame surrender. His was a very desperate spirit." “Ah, bah! What could he have done, trapped here?” “He could have taken to ths woods with his men. just as I told you in the message Miss Priscilla bore you; and there you could not have pursued him He might have lived to recommence. Even if he did not, before he came by his end he might have wrought such evil as I must have accounted beyond repair.” “Why, what could he have done? What evil?” Morgan pressed him. Again Monsieur de Bernis hesitated a little. Then, with an abrupt gesture, he indicated Major Sands and Miss Priscilla Harradine. “This gentleman and this lady would have remained in his hands if lie had chosen defiance. And that from the nature of him he certainly would have chosen.” Morgan’s brows went up, as he looked at the Major. It was as if he marvelled that de Bernis should have been moved to risks for that popinjay. But they came dawn

Rafael Palma, president of the university, Dean Max imo Kalaw, Director Teodoro KaI law and IVi.n Francisco Benito cabled congratulations to tin Philippine mission at Washington.

again when his glance travelled on to Miss Priscilla. He guffawed his sudden understanding, and slapped the table with his great hand. “So! So! Blimey, it becomes plain There was a rivalry between ye. Madam said you had been mighty gallant.” His elephantine body shook with laughter. The roar of it reverberated through the cabin. The Major coughed and scowled. Miss Priscilla’s face flamed scarlet, and her troubled, indignant eyes reproved the indecent mirth. The lean, leathern face of Aldridge was distended in a sour grin. Only Monsieur de Bemis remained entirely impassive. He ws-ited patiently until the Admiral’s laughter had diminished. Then he spoke icily. “The King may have made you a knight and he may have made you Governor of Jamaica; but in spite of it, Morgan, you remain just a villain. Pray pay no heed to him, Priscilla. Though he sits in the cabin, by his manners his proper place is the forecastle.” “The devil take your sour tongue!” Morgan answered him, without malice, laughter still bubbling in him. He raised his glass to the,lady. "No offence, ma’am. My homage to you. I toast your happy deliverance, oh. and yours. Major Shore.” “Major Sands, sir,” snapped the soldier, looking his disgust of the old buccaneer. "Same thing,” laughed Morgan, to increase that disgust. Captain Aldridge cleared his throat, and sat squarely to the table. “Shall we come to business, Sir Henry? What’s to be done with these rascals ashore?” “Ah, yes, indeed. To be sure.” He looked at de Bemis. “What should you say, Charles?” Monsieur de Bemis answered promptly. “First send a crew to take possession of the Centaur and repair the damage you've done to her. Then order the guns of the Black Swan to be hauled to the head of the bluff and cast into the sea. When that’s done, open fire on the hull where she lies careened ashore, and demolish her. After that we can go home.” “And leave those cut-throats free?” cried Aldridge, scandalized. Nor was he the only one to experience that emotion. The Major, emboldened by a gust of indignation, ventured to interpose. “That is the advice of a pirate! Stab me, it is! The advice of a pirate! Monsieur de Bernis has the fellow-feeling of one buccaneer for another. That’s plain.” An utter silence of amazement followed that explosion. Very slowly Sir Henry Morgan turned his eyes upon the speaker. He slewed his bulk round on his chair, so that he might the more squarely confront the soldier. “And who the devil desired your views?” he asked. The Major got up in a heat, outraged that anyone of these ruffians should take such a tone with him. “You seem to overlook, sir, that I hold the King's commission, and that. . . "Hold what the devil you please, sir,” Morgan trumpeted to interrupt him. "I ask you t.«w the devil this concerns you?”

“1 am telling you. sir, t.iai I nold the King's^commission." “The King has my sympathy, by Jove! Sit down, man. You’re interrupting business. Sit down! ' But the Major was not disposed to be browbeaten, particularly in the presence of Miss Priseilia. Circumstances of late had compelled him to submit to play a part in which there was no glory and little dignity. But from those circumstances he was now happily delivered. He was no longer on an island, at the mercy of a gang of cut-throats; but on board a vessel of the Crown, where his rank must be recognized and respected, so that he insisted upon his due. “You shall hear me, sir,” he answered, and was not deterred by the deepening scowl on Sir Henry’s brow. “It is my right to be heard. My right. As an officer of the Crown it is my duty to protest—to protest with all the vehemence at my command—against a proposal which is nothing short of dishon ouring to the King’s Majesty." Sir Henry, glooming up at him. with a heavy sneer that not even his heavy moustaches could conceal, spoke with ominous quiet in the pause the Major made “Have ye done, sir?” “I have not yet begun,” he was answered. “That was but the exordium,” said de Bernis. But Morgan crashed his fist down on the table. “Must I remind you, Major, that by the rank ye're flaunting you owe me obedience? You'll speak when you’re bidden.” “You forget, sir. , , “I forget nothing,” Sir Henry bawled. “Sit down, sir, as I bid you. ■ Show me defiance and — Od’s my life!—l’ll have you in irons. Sit down!” The Major’s prominent eyes still I looked defiance for a second Then they faltered under the overbearI ing gaze of Sir Henry. With a con- > temptuous shrug he flung himself I into his chair again, at some little > distance from the table and crossed - his legs. •. Sir Henry turned to de Bernis ! “Now. Charles?" i "Captain Aldridge thinks we 1 should not leave the crew of the r Black Swan at liberty. But I per. ceive no danger or inconvenience s in that. Marooned here, without . ship or guns, their leader dead, • they are rendered harmless enough. , If eventually they get away, they ■ are hardly likely to recommence. The lesson will have been too ! severe.’’ i “Faith, 1 am disposed .to agree > with you,” said Morgan, and as he r spoke he cast a malevolent glance at the Major. What next he added t leads us to suspect that the Major’s ■ presumptuous opposition may have i helped to dispose Sir Henry to 1 agree. “And that in spite of the t opinions of Major Beach." The Major irritably uncrossed his legs, and sat forward. “I have ■ told you, sir, that my name is Sands.” “Well?" Morgan leered at him i “Beach is Sands, isn’t it?” He got up. “Come on, Aldridge. Let's to work. We’ll take Charles’s advice. It's the easiest way to end the mat ter.” (To Be Continued) Copyright, 1932, by Kftiaei Sanalin, Distributed by King Features Syndicate. Inc.
