ROSEBURG NEWS-REViEW. ROSEBURG. OREGON, THURSDAY. JULY 24, 1930. FIVE Ghe SEA BRIDE' By BEN AMES WILLIAMS WHAT HAS HAPPENED BEFORE Faith Kllcub marries Noll Wins, middle-aged captain of the whaler. Sully Sims, and 'sails away with him. Hoy, Faith's brother, and Dan'l Toney, who loves Faith, are among the crew. Noll's strength Is ailing from age and drink. Seek ing to discredit Noll in Faith's eyes, Dan'l causes a quarrel be- tween Noll and Mauger, one of t the crew, during which Noll kicks out Mauger's eye. Faith tells Noll It was a cowardly thing to do, hut prevents his apologizing to Mau ger, saying It would humble Noll before the men. From that time on, Noll lives In constant fear of Mauger's vengeance. One day, af ter Noll had been harsh with Faith Dan'l tells her of his love, but she repulses his advances. Noll's slack ness has Its reaction upon the crew and they no longer fear him. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER X. Noll shoott his head dolefully. "1 ve been a hard niau in the past, Mr. nam." he admitted: "oal 1 a not slrme a man again." And the mate, wuo could not tmuerstund, cnuckled uneasily, as li it- ware all a jest. . "1 will, tor you. sir," he said. If Dan 1 Tooey had been mate aud so minded, lie cuutd nave Ket tiio crew aiert and keen; hut Dan'l had his own troubles aud lib did not greatly care wnat came to Noll anu Noll's eshlp. So, Nolls hand slackening, tTTe men were left to jwr. Hum; and the mate, while lit tor his Job, was not fit lor Noil s. Mutters went from bad to worse. this growing slackness cul initialed in tragedy. Where mat ters of lite and death are a part of every day, satety lies in dis cipline, and uiscipliue was' lax on the bally suns, un a uay wnen the skies were ugly and me wind was freshening they sighted a lone j bull whule, aud the mate and Wil lis Cox lowered for him while tne ship wonted up-wind toward where the creature lay. 'i'he boats, row ing, distanced the bark; the mate struck the whale, and the creature linked the boat so that its planks opened and It sank till it was bare ly awash and dipped the men in water to their necks. Silva, the mate's harpooner, cut the line and let the whale run free, and a mo ment later Willis Cox's boat got fast when Loum pilchpoled his great harpoon over thirty feet of water as the whale went down. The bli bull began to run head long, and the men In Willis's boat balanced on the sides for a "Nan- fJtrrr-t sleigh-ride." The whalo ran straight away, so tirelessly that they could not haul up on the line The weather thickened behind and hid the Sally as she stopped to nick up the mate and his wrecked boat. Then a squall struck, and night came swiftly down. When Willis saw it was hope loss to think of killing the whale, he cut. It was then lull dark and blowing. Some rain fell, but the flying spume that the wind clipped from the wave-tops kept the boat a nuarter full of s.5. water, no muiter how desperately they tialled. Toward midnight, the thirsty men wished to drink. A whale-boat Is always pro visioiled against the emergency of being cast adrift. Biscuits and water are stored in the lantern- keg, with matches and whatever else may be needful. The water is -4 replenished now and then, that it may be fresh. Hut when Willis opened the Ian torn keg he found Hie water half gone, and so urnckir?i that it was unlit to drink, a condition directly to he attributed to the weakening of discipline aboard the Sally. It was a serious matter, as they know all too well when the next day dawned bright and hot, with the bark nowhere to be seen. Their thirst increased tormentingly, and on the third day, when the search In? Sally found tlfem, two men were dead in the boat and the other four were in little better case. Willis had worked his boat , toward an island northwest of the position where ho lost the Sally; Dan'l Tobey had guessed what Willis would do and had per suaded Noll to cruise that way. When they picked up the half-dead men, Noll decided to touch at the island for food and fresh water, and they raised it in midmornlng of the second day. hey had seen otheY lands since the cruise began, but these other lands had been rocky and Inhos pitable the harsh tops, for the most part, of mountains that rose from the depths to break the sur face, of. the sea. Men dwelt on them, clinging like goats In the crannies of the rocks, but they were not inviting. 4 This Island wai"ilfferent. Whan Faith, coming on deck at the cry, saw it, .blue-green against the hori zon; she caught her breath at the beauty of it, and while the Sally worked closer, she watched with wide eyes and leaping pulses. She felt vaguely, that it was the portal or a new world; It was lovely, inviting, pleasant. She was sud denly sick of the harsh salt of the sea, sick of the stinking ship. She wanted the soft earth beneath her feet, trees above her head, flowers within reach of her hand. This island was fair and smiling; it seemed to promise her all the things she most desired. She sought Noll Wins. "Are you going ashore, Noll?" she asked. He was - In one of his slothful rhoods, half asleep in the after cabin, and he shook his great head. "No. Mates will get what we need. We'll be away by night." She hesitated. "1 want to -go ashore,"' she said. "Won't you go with me?" "You can go," he agreed readily enough. "Nobody there but some black men and maybe a few whites on the beach. Nothing to see." "There's land," she told him. smiling; "and trees and flowers. Do come!" , . "You go along. I'm tired to day." d like it so much more If you came with me! He frowned at her, Impatient at her insistence. 'Stop the talk." he told her harshly. "I'm not going. , Go, If you want to,, but be still about It. Let a man rest. 1m tired, Faith. I'm getting old." "You ought to look after getting the stuff for the ship.' she re minded him. "After all, you are responsible for her." "Mr. Ham will do that better than me," he said. "Go along." She, went out. reluctantly, and sought fhe mate. His boat and James Tibhels were to ,go ashore, leaving Dan 1 In charge of the ship. Ho grinned , cheerfully at Faith's request, and bade his - men rig a stool to lower her into the boat. Faith protested laughingly. "I can jump down, as well as a man," she said, and he nodded as sent and forgot her. She was in trie boat when they put off presently. She sat astern, while Mr. Ham stood above her. his legs spread to steady himself against, the movement of the boat, ills weight on the long steering-oar that he always preferred to the tiller. The Sally had dropped an chor a little offshore, and canoes were already spinning out to meet her. The island spread before them, green and sparkling in the sttn; and the white beach shone like silver. It was inore than a coral Island. There were two' hills a mile or so inland; and the white washed huts of a considerable vil lage shone against the trees. The canoes met , them, swirled aboil! them; the black folk shouted and clamored and stared. Mr. Ham waved to them; talked to them In a queer and outlandish mixture of 'tongues; bade them go on td the Sally. . , . . "Mr, Tobey'U buy what they've Ml." ho told Faith, as the whale boat drove ahead for the shoro. James Tlcacl's boat was well astern of them, drageing a raft of floating casks which would be filled with water and towed out to the Sally. He was still fat from shore when. they drove up on the beach; and the men jumped out In the shallow water and dragged the boat higher, so that Faith, picking her way over Lhe thwarts, could step ashore dry-shod from the bow. Her feet left scarce a mark Upon the harl, whltb sand. Mr. Ham said to her: "You come iip to the trees; you can be cfcol there while we're at our business." But Faith shook her head. "I'm going to take a walk," she said. "I want to get Into the woods. Ho long will you be here?" He hesitated dubiously. "Guess It's all right If you do." he decided. "The natives are friendly. Most of 'em talk English In a way. Go ahead." "How long have I?" Faith asked again. He said they would be ashore an hoi", pcrhans more. "No matter, anyway," he told her. "Stay long as you like. Do you want I 3hould send a man with you?" Knlth told him she was not afraid- He grinned. She turned southward along the beach, away from the huddled village. The smooth sand was so firm that It Jarred her feet, and she moved up tnto the shade of the trees, and followed them for a space, eyes probing Into the tangle beyond them, lips smiling,, tevery sense drinking in the smells of the laud When she came to a path that led into the junglelike undergrowth. she hesitated, then turned in. Within twenty steps the bush closed about her, shutting away all sight of the sea. For a little while che could hear the long rollers pounding on the beach; then that sound, too, became Indistinct and dim. It was drowned in the thou sand tiny noises all aboiu her bird-notes, cracking of twigs, stirring of furry things. Once a little creature cf a sort she had ever seen "before, yet not unlike the familiar and universal rabbit, hopped out on her path In a flurry of excitement. She heard presently another sound ahead of her a sound of running, falilhg water, and when she pressed on eagerly, she came out upon tlie bank of a clear stream thai dropped In bright cas cades from one deep, cool pool td another. She guenced this stream must boino down between the hills she had seen from tho ship. It was What she had unwittingly longed for durlns the months aboard the Sally. It was cool and clear and gay and chuckling; the sea was ai ways so turbulent and harsh. She followed the path that ran up the northern bank of the stream, and each new pool seemed more Inviting than the "last. She wanted to wade into them, to feel the water on her shoulders and her throat and her arms. Her smooth skin had revolted endlessly against the bite of the salt water in which shu bathed aboard the Sally; It yearned for this cool, crystal flood. She p.u aside her desire.
