CHAPTER XXVII “All very bright and sarcastic,” Isquith agreed. “But why. may one ask, if your son wanted to speak to you, why did he stop at the door out there—why, when he knew us all, didn’t he walk right in to see you?” “Imagine, if you can, that Maurice might possibly have had something private to say to me.” “I’m imagining it—without a struggle.” “He was pressed for time as it happened, and probably thought to avoid being delayed by farewells and explanations.” ‘“Farewells”” Tess Boyce with this echo made her voice heard for the first time since the ring had turned up missing; and something throaty in its timber, a huskiness of newly excited emotion, struck Lanyard’s ear as curious. “What d’you mean, ‘farewells’? Where’s he going. for a swim or something?” “My son, madame, decided at the last minute to anticipate our arrival : in America—” “How anticipate it?” “Listen.” A lifted hand enjoined attention; and upon the hush that answered it, an instant of speechless suspense stressed by the muffled rumor of engines choked down to half-speed, or less, and by a complete cessation of the slough of water down the side, the drone of an airplane fell like long-drawn thunder. “The mail-plane!” Tess Boyce started to her feet. “You mean he’s flying? What came over him all of a sudden?” “Does it matter, madame?” “Why—l suppose it doesn’t.” She seemed to grasp for the first time that her excitement might give rise to wonder. “I was surprised, that’s all; it seemed so sudden —” “I don’t imagine Maurice would mind my telling you what you must surmise for yourself as scon as you know the name of the other air-pas-senger.” Lanyard kept close though covert watch for an inkling of the i woman’s ill-dissembled emotion, but found it quite beyond his fathoming. What the devil, the man mused. It couldn’t be that she was distressed by any sentimental feeling. What then—in the name of reason? “Mademoiselle Crozier, so Maurice told me, wheedled her mother into consenting to the adventure; and he was enterprising enough to decide, on the spur of the moment, to go with her.” The thunder rolled till it became a sustained thick bellow, struck a new, less impatient note, and went into a swift dwindle as a cheer from the decks attested a successful takeoff. “Well, anyway,” Isquith observed with a dry chuckle, “there, Your Highness—or my guess is a bad miss—there gees your ruby.” But the Rajah made no articulate answer. Exasperation had him by the throat and was visibly shaking him. He stuttered and thrashed the air in an attempt to express the unspeakable. And before he could refind his tongue, one of his suite was announcing: “The Captain Sahib.” • ♦ • The tedious time that Lanyard subsequently spent in limbo was relieved by nothing except the attentions of a taciturn steward till the Nwenrre had made halt at Quarantine and gathered way for the short last lap to her dock. Then, nearing one end of his new quarters, whose length he had taken to prowling for want of a better way to work off the ferment of pent temper, the man heard a small noise behind him and i came smartly about, to discover I

It took me quite a while to dope out what had become of you, but once I knew, I just had to shill in for a stare at the exhibit! I’ve got to hand it to friend Pion: he ain’t no ordinary dick. Far be it from him to advertise he’d just pulled the showiest pinch of the season; for all that us passengers knew about it, you might simply have done a nose-dive into the wake.” “But Madame Boyce knew—and the Rajah, and Isquith!" “Believe it or not, fella, that lot never let out a peep.

good piece of snoopin’ before I got the low-down.” “Your success there doesn’t surprise me so much as that you contrived by any means to persuade Pion to let you vistt me.” “Yeah? I’d be a gay dick, wouldn't I. if I told you all my girlish secrets? I wangled it, and that's al! you're goin’ to know about it just at present. What’s more to the point is' to find out how you got framed like this, and what I can do to spring you before this good ship sails back with you to that dear France.” "You are a good fellow, my friend,” Lanyard protested, as Crane made himself at home in a chair; “but I am afraid there is nothing. . . . Let me tell you.” He succinctly related the tale of his afternoon at cards and its upshot: “Pion, I must confess, surprised me by showing some disposition to give me a chance It was the Captain who wouldn't listen to reason: a mean creature, that one, al! in a fever to truckle to His Honey-col-ored Highness. Not that our good Pion was noticeably downcast by ! the ultimatum that brought me to (this pass.”

“No! No kiddin’? Still and all. I , shouldn't wonder if you're right, at that: it’s the Cap’n that's the pole- ■ cat. Mean to say he wouldn’t give you any break at all? Wouldn't even frisk the others for the ruby? Looks like there must be something besides plain cussedness behind the way he’s actin’.” ' “I assure you he took Isquith’s < kind conjecture as if it might have been inspiration from on high, took it for granted that nobody else could possibly have made away with the ' ruby and I had passed it on to Mau- 1 rice—even went so far as to prom- ! ise he would arrange by wireless to have Maurice searched to the skin upon landing. And there is another I matter that perplexes me beyond i measure." “What?” Lanyard handed the deteetrve a sheet of creased paper.

"A radio from my son announc- j ing his safe arrival. Observe, if you : please, that it was written in high I spirits: the boy was delighted with i his adventure and enchanted with America—it conveys not a hint of any unpleasantness encountered on landing.” “I don’t see any reason why it should have. Chances are he took his reception as pretty much what any pesky foreigner had to expect of our customs officials. And secin’ as he didn’t have any rubies on him. I the experience couldn’t have turned i out unpleasantly.” “It depends, I dare say, on what ' the Captain actually wirelessed in 1 comparison with what he promised. The impression he plainly gave was ; , that he meant to have Maurice held under arrest, even if the ruby were not found on him, pending our arrival.” “Maybe he had an attack of see ond-thought. You know how these t frogs are—When they’re ail excited I they will promise most anything, but they generally calm down and think things over before they let themselves in for anything that might , have serious consequences.
