ridges as the lightning fell upon them,
and all along the base of the head it
burst at times into lurid fire. The boy
drew back More it, but bis father was
out there- out there where all things
rolled together in convulsion, ami be
clung in the teeth of the tempest,
straining car and eye upon the sea.
Suddenly a ship burst into the glare.
It seemed coming straight upon the
shore, and the boy shouted w ith fear,
but it veered and passed away into the
darkness. But wluit was that leaping
along the billow’s? There it shone in
the glare; now all was swallowed up
in night,; there it came again—a boat!
ami he ran into the very arms of the
billows to meet it as a longwave hurled
it high upon the beach. \\ ith a leap he
was beside it. and when the lightning
came again he saw it was bis father’s
boat, but----empty! A shock of horror
passed through him; his wish had come
true. The lightning fell about him. the
<•,ean turned to froth, and the billows,
bursting against the head, leaped up
the shattered pillars in bluish, snowy
sheets. But he gave no heed. Sudden­
ly he seemed to hear voices calling.
Now they seemed in the roaring wood
:cross the bay: now far out to sea; then
high up in heaven. It must be his
fancy, he thought, or the winds wailing
in the holes and hollows of the cliff.
Be passed around toward the front of
the head and listened, but the blast
roared in bis cars, and the noise of the
inrolling flood was so great he could not
hear distinctly.
How unspeakably fearful it was: his
father out there in the wallowing
waters. A picture of the man more
vivid than life came into the boy’s ex­
cited mind; his tall stature, stooping
shoulders, ragged clothes, and laugh­
ing. vagabond air: his native good
humor, save when liquor made him
harsli; his love for children, and «logs,
and limiting, and how, when he did not
drink, be was the best axman and the
strongest man in all the region. Ah,
how darkly it all had ended.
Bui presently, while he was thinking,
the wind lulled, and a voice leaped out
from the very lips of the bead in a long.
‘ uivrrmg cry for help.
His blood
bounded and stood still; then the cry
caiiie again, rising above the clashing
tdeim uts like a peal of anguish. Ah. it
"as his fathers voice; and his blood
leajted forward again with a great
tin ill, and forgetful of his lameness he
ran m close to the bursting rollers «and
l-vgun to climb the face of tiiv head. It
seemed an attempt fit for something
mad. for all lvlow him lav a boiling
abyss, lashing and thnndci ing ami leap­
ing alter him: but he had no time for
fear; was not his father calling for suc-
’ or somewhere out there in that abyss
of noise and commotion?
He knew every hole an<1 shelf in the
face of the precipice, and s<w»n by the
aid ot the lightning flashes he was on
a ledge lca<ling toward the voice. It
was a frightful place. Once he slipped
and bung over the edge of the shelf,
very close to death. A thick sweat
broke unt upon him, and bis heart
jaried his si 1c with every troke. After
that he crept forward more carefully.
All calls promptly attended to

' Thoughts and images were flying
through his brain; the children sleep-
I hig in the hut. his mother stooping at
the fireplace trying to kindle a fire, the
stove in the shed tilling with water
from the storm, and the millmen's
shills to be dried and ironed on the
monow. Suddenly the clouds broke
open to a great height, and there swam
the moon in peaceful fields of violet, the
m rrate edges of the long rift shining
like a cake of silver broken apart.

< aiUB to a jutting point, and, creeping
carefully around it, emerged upon a
little platform of stone.
There the
shelf came apparently to an end, and as
he turned about in blinding eagerness
to find a further way, the voice sprang
out almost from beneath his feet. He
all but leaped into the sea with joy and
fright.
In an instant he was down upon his
knees peering over the brink, and there,
almost in reach of his hand, was his fa­
ther's upturned face! He was standing
upon one foot in a break in one of the
pillars that leaned against the cliff,
with his arms about its shattered top,
and upon its top and within the pro­
tecting circle of his arms, sat a thin-
faced, yellow-haired child.
It was the strange t. wildest picture
Paul Armor had ever seen.
“Oh, father, don’t ye let go! I'll save
ye!” he cried. With the first look the
child stretched out her arms to him.
and a light that was more than the
radiance of the moon broke over the
man’s face.
“It tuck a sight of hollerin’ to raise
vo, son!” he said, half weeping in his
joy and weariness. “I'd ’bout made up
my mind to let go and slide down among
the fish. I guess I’d done it only this

“I don’t know,’, said the boy, without
looking up. “He sold the fish he got
yesterday, I guess.”
After that they were silent. In a lit­
tle time their meager supper was over,
and darkness was thick without. It
was singularly warm and still even for
the mild California coast, and after
putting the children to sleep the mother
went out and listened. Pahl was lean­
ing upon the ruined wall with his face
turned seaward, and nothing stirred
the silence save a faint whispering of
waters out in the darkness. The at­
mosphere seemed utterly becalmed.
But suddenly as they listened there
came a little puff of wind like some­
thing invisible fleeing before the storm,
then a sort of seething rose farover­
head, as if the clouds were turning in
helpless fear about the ceiling of the
sky, and the sea began to chop and
purr like an unseen animal whetting its
teeth in the darkness. In a moment
the few remaining stars were ingulfed,
and in another moment there came a
shivering crash, and the whole scene
leaped into view.
“My God!” cried the woman, starting
forward, an<l Paul, with a faintness
rushing over him with thought of the
wish he had made in his heart, knew
t’i;.t she was praying for his father, out
in his double darkness of his evil weak­
ness and the gathering terrors of the
night.
Together they hurried in and made
the «hairs and windows fast against the
coming storm. Ina moment it broke,
and roared and lashed across the cl ill'
for hours, while the mother, with white
face, went to and fro, soothing the
children, and turning now and then as
if she would go out into the storm and
find the one she feared might never
come again. Paul’s eyes followed her
troubled face, with a look of pleading
terror. Suddenly he seized the latch.
“Mother. I’m going to the shore!” he
said.
“No, child, no!” she cried.
‘‘Oh, mother. I must! 1 must! Father
mav come!” and he sprang out into the
tempest.
Al first he was thrown from side to
side and dashed against the house by
the wind, but presently got his feet and
went reeling through the falling tor­
rents down the hillside, and came upon
the beach.
The sea seemed alive with leaping
