Bess' teeth clicked viciously. Lord
George seemed to be getting on her
nerves. But for some reason she
made no effort to counter. Instead
she carried the conversation back to
the earlier topic. “We were talking
about our trip and how it will turn
out. I suppose you know more or less
about it?”
“More or less, yes!" responded Miss
Denslow. “Rather less than more.
I'm afraid."
“Well. It’s this way." Besa recount-
ed the events of the last few days.
“We were just trying to figure out
why the thief sent the map back," she
ended.

“Oh!” Carr's eyes widened. “So
that's where—" He broke off, and
j stared over the girl's shoulder. "Who
is that standing with the lady by the
< companionway?" he asked.
| Bess’ eyes followed the direction of
■ his. “That’s Lord George Caruthers,"
she said. "Do you know him?"
Carrs eyes grew introspective. "I
i am not sure,” he said. "He looks to
me like—er—" He broke off, ''Well,
maybe I’m wrong," he said. "But he
; certainly looks like—somebody I
' know.” His expression showed plainly
I that his thoughts, whatever they were.
I were not pleasant.
Mrs. Archman's glance, roving about
i the deck, settled on her daughter and
Carr. She flushed, and started in-
! stantly toward the two, over the clut-
, tered deck. "Bess!" she called, as she
drew nearer.
Bess faced her calmly. “I’m so glad
a beastly duffer at catching names,
you know."
Miss Denslow bowed. "Yes; it's
the deck.
Carr smiled. If he was abashed he
i did not show it. “I’m trying to be
one," he answered coolly, “but I'm not
making very much of a fist at It Pm
always smashing my thumb," he ended
confidentially.
"Ah!" Mrs. Archman raised her
brows. Then she turned her back de-
Iberately. "Come, Bess," she said.
"Ceptain Bunker Is just coming on
board."
Beu nodded. "All right mother,"
she said. Then she turned to the
young man. "Good morning, Mr.
Carr."
Carr's eye* were perplexed as he
stared after the three. Particularly
did his eyes follow the broad back of
Lord George. “So that's mother's plan,
is it" he murmured disgustedly. "Con-
found the fellow. I know I’ve seen
htm before, and it wasn't in England,
elther. Where the diekens was it?"
As the four reached the gangplank
Captain Bunker came up it. "I'm
sorry I wasn't on board when you
came." he said. “I hop* Mr. Collins
made you at home.”
"Mr. Collins was very nice," re-
sponded Mm Archman. “But I want-
ed to see you particularly, captain."
"Certainiy. will you come Into the
chart house, madam?"
Mm. Arehman nodded and followed.
“Captain," she said, a* she took her
seat, “where are you to meet my hus-

If Captain Bunker was surprised he
did net show it “I don't know,

Captain Bunker shook hl* head. “I

"Very well: then listen to me." Mrs

had started Archman southward, and
