Charles Webster, a local merchant, completes the trio of friends. Saunders produces a written document purporting to • be the death-bed statement of Hen ry P. Tobias, a successful pirate, made by him in 1859. It gives two spots where two millions and a half of treasure were buried by him and his companions. The conversation of the three friends is overheard by a pock-marked stranger. The docu ment disappears. Saunders, how ever, has a copy. The hero, deter mined to seek the buried treasure, charters a schooner. The pock marked man is taken on as a pas senger. On the voyage somebody empties ths gasoline tank. Tha hero and the passenger clash, the pas senger leaving a manifesto bearing the signature. "Henry P. Tobiaa.

Mean while, my* temper was beginning to rise on behalf of our young passenger. “I tell you what, Charlie," I inter posed ; “if you are going to keep this up, ymi’d better count me out on this trip and set us both ashore at West Knd. You’re making a fool of your self. The lad’s all right.” Tfie boy shot me a warm glance of gratitude. “All right.” agreed Charlie, begin ning to lose his temper, too. “I’m damned if I don’t.” And, his hand on the tiller, he made os If to turn the boat about and tack for the shore. very lonely settlement-one of the two or three settlements on the else-de serted island—Behring’s point.
