A come so the Federal lieutenant followed and de Benham brought up the rear. A you have done Justice to three bottles at All events a said the latter seeing the empty bottles and the two glasses still upon the a Able. The prize master laughed. A yes a he said a that Madeira Raly is Worth drinking. But. Manuel had the Lions share and now i guess he can to keep his eyes open. Can to Yew find the Chart Captain a but instantly his arms were pinioned behind by Captain Hay and de Benham was standing Oyer him with an Iron belaying plan snatched from behind the door. A silence said the super cargo in a Low. Hurried voice. A submit and Yon shall be Well treated utter one cry for help and by heaven i its All Over with the northerner darted one desperate glance at the door another at the windows struggled for a Momient fiercely but silently and then finding resistance useless desisted. A now look he re a Saia Captain Hay gripping his elbows Back with a grasp of Iron a a it a no Good struggling. We re resolved to Back the command of this boat and done to care a Straw for our own lives still less for yours. Will you give in quietly and submit to be gagged and handcuffed or must Knock your brains out a a a you re two to one against me a muttered the prize master through his Teeth. 1 Vilt a you have killed him in exclaimed de Benham. A a not a bit of it. His Skull is As thick As an elephants. Look Sharp. Hell be All right again before know where Quick As lightning they Tore the counterpane into strips and bound him to the framework of the bed bound him hand and foot ankle and wrist with a Strong band Over his Chest As Well so that giant As he was he should not be Able to stir one hairs breadth. And then for they had not a second gag de Benham took from his desk a Large lamp of India rubber about two inches Square rolled it tightly in a folded handkerchief Ana while Captain Hay forced the locked Teeth apart fixed it firmly Between them and tied the ends of the handkerchief behind the Many a head. A there a he said a i done to think that will interfere with his breathing. I wish he would Cometo a a a he la come to soon enough a replied the Captain set Polter free the better has he stowed the key of the Cuddy a a a the Cook has it said de Benham. A a the Cook had it and the Cook took it Bank again. It was in the mates keeping of course a and Here it is in his Waistcoat pocket. Now hide your they buttoned their Coats Over their revolvers locked the mexican in As they had locked it us a and now the sooner can where the Devil a a Quick the bar in cried Captain Haing on thet Hatek Anis him. A by heaven of us and As he spoke the trap heaved beneath their feet. Then de Benham also sprang upon it and the Force with which this foes weight came Down sent it into its place. Instantly he dropped upon his Knees Slid the bar dexterously into the Staple and the thing was done a Hurrah a cried Archie triumphantly. A a that makes ten Ltd a a they la be safer a said the Captain a a when be heaped on some of these Cotton at that moment they heard a shrill cry up aloft and saw the watch in the crowds nest gesticulating to his shipmates on the after deck. A a he has seen its a exclaimed de Benham. A a he a giving the alarm a a a he s a Lubber not to have done both Long ago a said the Captain drawing his revolver. A farm yourself with that Handspike or. Blyth. W fight the Seaman in then Row a nest dropped like a Bird and snatched an Iron stanchion from the bulwark. The watch on deck Drew his Cutlass. The helmsman not daring to let go his wheel raised a shout for help. Captain Hay went up revolver in hand. A a it a no Good shouting my men a he said. The ship is ours. The starboard watch a the prize master and the rest Are All our prisoners. Will you Lay Down your weapons and surrender a still standing on the defensive the two sear men foil Back a step keeping close together but answering never a word. Then the Captain stamped his foot upon the deck and swore a tremendous oath. A qty pick in he said. A a want no bloodshed but if you resist by the lord ill shoot you Down like vermin. At that moment a Swarthy face emerged the engine room Hatchway emerged unseen by the three englishmen whose Hacks were turned that Way hut not unseen by the three Yankees. It was the face of the guard placed Over the engineers slow. With one Swift glance fore and aft he took in the whole hearings of the scene hesitated for an instant As if Uncertain whether to attack the enemy in the rear or release his comrades in the forecastle then with his revolver in one hand and his drawn Cutlass in the other he crept along by the gunwales swiftly and stealthily toward the fore deck. A Flash of Triumph shot from the eyes of the helmsman. Archie following the aps unwilling to go for the bermudas. Foi think a amp pin wed better put her. Head about and steer for Bermuda a i f f it i i charts were at once brought oat and a hurried Council was held. The boat was found to be about thirty Miles due East of Cape Hatteras. To resume their uninterrupted course and make for Nassau skirting the blockaded coast the whole Way was now oat of the question. It was therefore anxiously debated whether they a hould steer for St. Georges Bema Ida adopt the More daring course a for the azores. Polter who wan the Captain and de Benham voted for the azores. Each alternative had much to recommend it. St. Georges was a British port and Lay within some five hunted and fifty Miles of the Point at which they then found themselves whereas the nearest of the azores was More than four times that distance. But then to go to St. Georges they must in some measure run Back upon their course in a southeasterly direction just keeping in those Waters where the american cruisers swarmed thickest while by making for the azores they would be steering almost e. N. E., nearing Home and leaving the american coast and All its perils farther behind at every turn of the screw. Then there was the Cotton they could not take it to Nassau now vet it must go to England somehow. And then there was the refitting of the Stormy petrel which could be done better and cheaper at Liverpool than by or. Wilbur h. Salem at Victoria Creek Nassau. The time for deliberation was Short but the plan of shaping their course for Europe seemed on All accounts so much the Best that it resolved itself at last into a Mere question of they were now in lat. 35� 15n. And Long. 76� 03/, w., and hence supposing no accidents it would take them with their one efficient engine from twelve to fourteen Days to reach the port of Horta in the Island of Fayal 2,270 Miles away. Had they fuel for so Long ? the chief Engineer was sent to examine the St Telof the Coa a linkers. He came Back look it ing somewhat grave. A Well or.
