SYNOPSIS.
Capt, Nathaniel Plum, of the sloop
Typhoon, lands secretly on Beaver Island,
stronghold of the Mormons. He Is sud-
denly confronted by Obadlah Price, an
eccentric old man and a member of the
Mormon council, who tells him that he Is
expected. Price Ignores Nat's protesta-
tions that he has K<>t the wrong man. and
bargains for the ammunition aboard the
sloop. He binds Nat by a solemn oath to
deliver a package to Franklin Pierce,
president of the United Htates. Near
Price's cabin Nat sees the frightened face

to his arm In the blackening gloom of
the forest was evidence of that trust.
She looked into his face anxiously, in-
quiringly when they stopped to listen,
like a child who was sure of a
stronger spirit at her side. She held
her breath when he held his, she
listened when he listened, her feet fell
with velvet stillness when he stepped
with caution. Her confidence in him
was like a beautiful dream to Na-
thaniel and he trembled when he pic-
tured the destruction of It. After a
little he reached over and as If by ac-
cident touched the hand that was ly-
ing on his arm; he dared more after
a moment, and drew the warm little
fingers into his great strong palm and
held them there, his soul thrilled by
their gentle submissiveness. And then
In another breath there came to still
his joy a thought of the terrible power
that chained this girl to the Mormon
king. He longed to speak words of
encouragement to her, to Instil hope
in her bosom, to ask her to confide in
him the secret of the shadow which
hung over her, but the memory of
what Neil had said to him held his
lips closed.
They had walked in silence for
many minutes when the girl stopped.
"It is not very far now," she whis-
pered. "You must go!"
"Only a little farther," he begged.
She surrendered again, hesitatingly,
and they went on, more slowly than
before, until they came to where the
path met the footway that led to
Obadiah's.
"Now—now you must go," whis-
pered Marion again.

ed her hand against his breast, his
body throbbing with a wild tumult,

"I will promise."
"At midnight—"
"Yes, at 12 o'clock."
This time it was Marlon who came
to him. Her eyes shone like stars.
"And If you make Neil go to the
mainland," Bhe said softly, "when 1
meet you 1 will—will tell you—some-
thing."
The last word came in a breathless
sob. As she slipped into the path
that led to St. James she paused for
a moment and called back, In a low
voice: "Tell Nell that he must go for

fate Is shortly to be as cruel as mine
tell him that Winnsome loves him,
and that she will escape and come to

go!" ,
She turned again, and Nathaniel
stood like a statue, hardly breathing,
until the sound of her feet had died
away. Then be walked swiftly up the
foot path that led to Obadiah's. He
forgot his own danger in the excite-
ment that pulsated with every fiber
of his being, forgot his old caution
and the fears that gave birth to it—
forgot everything In those moments
but Marion and his own great happi-
ness. Neil's absence meant nothing to
him now. He had held Marlon In
his arms, he had told her of his love,
and though she had accepted It with
gentle unresponsiveness he was
thrilled by the memory of that last
look in her eyes, which had spoken
faith, confidence, and perhaps even
more. What was that something she
would tell him if he got Neil safely
away? It was to be a reward for his
own loyalty—he knew that, by the
half fearing tremble of her voice, the
sobbing catch of her breath, the
strange glow In her eyes. With her
brother away she would confide in
him? Would she tell him the secret
of her slavedom to Strang? Na-
thaniel was conscious of no madness
in the wild hope that filled him; noth-
ing seemed impossible to him now.
Marion would meet him at midnight
She would go with him to the boat,
and then—ah, he had solved the prob-
lem! He would use no force. He
would tell her that Neil was in his
canoe half a mile out from the shore
and that he had promised to leave
the island for good if she would go
out to bid him good-by. And once
there, a half a mile or a mile away, he
would tell her that he had lied to her;
and he would give her his heart to
trample upon to prove the love that
had made him do this thing, and then
he would row her to the mainland.
It was the sight of Obadiah's cabin
that brought his caution back. He
came upon it so suddenly that an ex-
clamation of surprise fell unguarded
from his lips. There was no light to
betray life within. He tried the door
and found it locked. He peered In
at the windows, listened, and knocked,
and at last concealed himself near
the path, confident that the little old
councilor was still at St. James. For
an hour he waited. From the rear of
Obadiah's home a narrow footway led
toward the lake and Nathaniel fol-
lowed It, now as warily as an animal
In search of prey. For half a mile
it took him through the forest and
ended at the white sands of the beach.
In neither direction could Nathaniel
see a light, and keeping close in the
shadows of the trees he made his
way slowly toward St. James. He had
gone but a short distance when he
saw a house directly ahead of him,
a single gleam of light from a small
window telling him that it was in-
habited and that Its tenants were at
home. He circled down close to the
water looking for a boat. His heart
leaped with sudden exultation when
he saw a small skiff drawn upon the
beach and his joy was doubled at find-
ing the oars still in the locks. It took
him but a moment to shove the light
craft into the sea and a minute later
he was rowing swiftly away from the
land.
Nathaniel was certain that by this
time Neil had abandoned his search
for the captured Typhoon and was
probably paddling in the direction of
St. James. With the hope of inter-
cepting him he pulled an eighth of a
mile from the shore and rowed slowly
toward the head of the Island. There
was no moon, but countless stars
glowed in a clear sky and upon the
open lake Nathaniel could see for a
considerable distance about him. For
another hour he rowed back and forth
and then beached his boat within a
dozen rods of the path that came down
from Obadiah's.
It was 10 o'clock. Two more hours!
He had tried to suppress his excite-
ment, his apprehension, his eagerness,
but now as he went back into the
darkness of the forest they burst out
anew. What if Marion should not
keep the tryst? He thought of the
spies whom Neil had said guarded the
girl's home—and of Obadiah. Could
he trust the old councilor? Should
he confide his plot to bim and ask bis
assistance l As the minutes passed
and these thoughts recurred again
and again in his brain he could not
keep the nervousness from growing
within him. He was sure now that
he Would have to fight his battle with-
out Nell. He saw the necessity of
coolness, of judgment, and he began
to demand these things of himself,
struggling sternly against those symp-
toms of weakness which had replaced
his confidence of a short time before.
Gradually he fought himself back into
his old faith. He would save Marion
—without Neil, without Obadiah. If
Marlon did not come to him by mid-
night it would be because of the
gyards against whom Neil had warned
him, and he would go to her. In
some way be would get her to the
boat, even if he had to fight his way
through Arbor Croche's men.
With this return of confidence Na-
thaniel's thoughts reverted to his
present greatest need, which was food. \
Since early morning he had eaten j
nothing and be began to feel the j
physical want in a craving that wa* j
becoming acutely uncomfortable. If

himself. A sudden turn in the path
which he was following, however, re-
vealed one of the councilor's windows
aglow with light, and as he pressed
quietly around the end of the build-
ing the sound of a low voice came to
him through the open door. Cautiously
he approached and peered In. A large
oil lamp, the light of which he had
seen in the window, was burning on
a table In the big room but the voice
came from the little closet Into which
Obadiah had taken him the preceding
night. For several minutes he
crouched and listened. He heard the
chuckling laugh of the old councilor
—and then an incoherent raving that
set his blood tingling. There is a hor-

him, shrieking now in a sudden burst |

no response. It was the quiet of
death that pervaded the cabin, it was
a strange, growing fear of death that
entered Nathaniel as he now hurried
across the room and peered through
the narrow aperture. The old coun-
cilor was half stretched upon the ta-
ble, his arms reaching out, his long,
thin fingers gripping its edges, his
face buried under his shoulders. It
looked as if death had come suddenly
to him during some terrible convul-
sion, but after a moment Nathaniel
saw that he was breathing. He went
over and placed a hand on the old
man's twisted back.
"Hello, Obadiah! Hello—hello!" he
called cheerfully.

Haunted by Wills.
"The wills I have witnessed some-
times rise up to haunt me," said the
nurse. "Such pathetic little testa-
ments many of them are. They are
mostly by people In the free wards.
They haven't much to will away, these
non-paying patients, but what few
trifles they do possess are precious,
and there is some person still more
precious to inherit them.
"Making a will is postponed in most
cases until the hospital stage of sick-
ness is reached, but if a man Is able to
think at all he imagines the minute he
strikes a hospital bed that his time
has come and making his will is the
natural corollary of that conclusion.
He writes it on any old sheet of paper
and the nurses witness It. To a room-
mate he bequeathes his clothes, to an-
other pal bis pipe, and maybe there are
a few liooks to be distributed among
friends. Sometimes there is evidence
ot considerable spite in these hospital
wills.
'I've got a wife somewheres,' said
an accident patient not long ago, 'Also
I've got a collection of stuffed toads
and a lot of carpenter tools, but dam-
me If she shall ever touch one of 'em.
I'll see to that In my will.'
"He did see to it, but he got well
afterward, eo maybe he wlil have time
to effect a more amicable arrangement
before he gets scared Into writing all-
other will."
