"They'va put a dama onto you, Spike."
"I'll watoh my atap," Jim answered,
sightseer aboard. It waa quite)
awlm, front shore. How deeo
is it here?"
"Six fathoms." - '
"In English, I mean."
"About 38 feet"
"Deep enough ' to drown In."
Mary Laraen said, shivering a
little.
Jim Mallory glanced shoreward.
The white) palm-fringed beach
was pretty far. The man whs
had sent her was a fool; he must
oe paying ner well. Jim wu
about to tell her to clear out and
swim back when Blaeksheep
called from the galley. "Grub,
Spike suh." And that gave him
an idea. He might learn some,
tiling from her.
He said. "Sat with usT ItH be
beans and bacon, bread and eof
fee. If you can take It"
l can taka it Thanks."
CHE followed him down into the
tug's crowded cabin. Ha gave
her a sweater to cover her bare
shoulders. She thanked him with
a smile. It wu a nice, warm and
friendly smile, and he took It and
looked away.
Curly came in, sat down, and
wolfed the food Blaeksheep
served. Curly didn't like women
aboard ship, and sulked with re
sentment. . Blaeksheep, however,
wu pleased. He'd opened a can
of peaches for the visitor. He
hovered about for a time, then
reluctantly went back to the gal
ley.
The girl said, "I didn't know
they came to colorful." , ;
"Oh, Blaeksheep is a Cayman,"
Jim Mallory said. "Nice fellow.
His sweet disposition comes from
being raised on Bahama sugar
cane. But" he looked squarely
at ine girl -out ne can be tougn."
She missed the point of that,
and asked, "Is his name really
inatT" .
"So he claims."
Jim started to eat, watching the
girl with . covert dances. She
wasn't tough; she wu definitely
tne opposite, and there wu Intel'
llgence in her eyes. He began to
think that she wasn't just another
girl. He was surprised that such
a girl was mixed up In this thing.
It proved what he had suspected
that the thins wu olentr bis.
She ate as he liked to see people
eat even though the food wasn't
much. She was still eating after
he was finished, and after Curly
Bates had left the cabin. She
caught Curly's sour look m he
went to deck.
"He doesn't like m. mhm M
"And you don't either."
"What makes you think I
don't?"
'Your eyu do a narrowina act
every time you look at me. It
makes me squirm. It's disconcerting."
She didn't seem- offended. Sha
finished her coffee and sat back
to watch Jim as he filled his pipe.
A smile came and went on her
lips. She turned trownlngly sober,
u if she just remembered she
hadn't come aboard solely to eat
his food.
She said, "Spike, could I ask
you a question?"
TIE took the unllghted pipe from
hi. niith t .....
nr. He knew what the Question
would be. He had been ap
proached before, rasa weeks ago
first by a man who offered him
a bribe. The amount of the bribe
had bean doubled later, over the
telephone, and then two days ago
a man had phoned and threatened
him. He could stand oft bribes
and threats, and this girl too. He
knew the ship's location but he
wasn't going to reveal it until
he learned why that sunken ship
waa so Important '
"You can ask," he said, "but
you won't be answered. I know
your little game, my dear, and it
won't work. Go back to the man
who pays you and tell him he'll
have to try more than a pretty
faee."
He saw how startled she looked:
her eyes widening and her lips
quivering. She gripped the edge
of the table, u if to brace herself.
1 wanted to ask a civil aues-
ttota," she said. "I suppose a civil
answer was too much to expect
from a member of a tug's crew.
From a diver who fancies himself
quite a tough fellow."
She threw off the borrowed
sweater and started to rise. Jim
Mallory reached out and gripped
her wrist He jerked her back
into the chair. Keeping his grip
on her arm, he could feel her
trembling with anger. He'd had
a sudden inspiration. She didn't
know Spike was Jim Mallory, it
seemed, and so maybe Spike could
play her game and learn some
thing. "Maybe you better talk," to
said. "Go on, talk. I like mat
sound of your voice. Who sent
you here, baby?"
But he saw by the fury in her
eyes that she wouldn't talk.
