FORTUNE'S KNOCK.
They say that Fortune knocks at a
Aman's door but once, and if he
toesn't hear, and rise up and let her hl
li, sho never troubles him again. 1
Whether it is always so or not, I ao s
hot know, but I have seen more than
ode man who has "missed his
ohance" in life, as the saying is, and
has been stranded on a lee-shore ever a
lince in consequence.
One of these was Sam Truefelt, an
ild shipmate of mine, who sailed al
along with me in several vessels, the
Black Swan especially. He and I w
slung our hammocks in her fo'castle a
three voyages running, and might
have done so for years if it hadn't d
been that the Swan was wrecked just d
as she was getting home from that
third trip, on Margetson's Point, at A
the mouth of Seaville harbor.
Most of us were Seaville boys, and ii
we went home to dry our clothes at- P
ter the coa3t-guard had rescued us U
from the Swan's deck. If Captain
Peterson hadn't been so terribly anx- a
lous to get home that night, and not
tried to run inside in a northeast
Jale, it never would have happened.
But that's neither here nor there.
What I am going to tell you about
was how Sam Truefelt missed his
chance, and _it came about ih this 9'
way: ft
Sam was considerably older than ti
me. He was an A. B. long before 1 t
rst sneaked aboard the old Casco g
and got toor to sea as a stowaway,
from that working my way up along
till I'm captain. So Sam sailed in
the old brig Dreadnaught, which h
same was broke up while I was still
a lad, and he sailed more than one
voyage in her, too.
Captain Bromley commanded the
Dreadnaught, and old sailors tell
dreadful stories about his brutality,
and about the general wickedness of d
his crews. He couldn't get none but
the worst men to ship with him and Ll
more than once had to drive 'em into
the fo'castle at the point of his re.
volver an' keep 'em there till they'd t
sleep off the liquor they got hold of. U
For there was always liquor on tal a
aboard the brig, and the crew would I
,et at it occasionally.
Sam was a young rellow and he was
wild. His first trip on the Dread.
naught came pretty near being the
ruination of him and by the time he'd
gone twice with Captain Bromley he''d
got regular tough. That voyage
things went worse than ever and part .
)f the crew mutined.
Of course they failed in ther at.
tempt and, in some way, one man a
was killed. Ielf-defence" was what
the captain called it, but he had a
pretty full crew and one man-es.
pecially a troublesome one-wouldn't
be missed Sam was. proved to be
one of the ringleaders of the mutiny
and the captain swore he'd punish b
him so that he'd be sure to remem
And sure enough he did, for he
marooned the poor fellow on an island
at which they touched for water.
The Dreadnaught was bound for the b
Cape of Good Hope, and the capta~n
promised to touch for him when theya
came hack, "providing," as the old
man said drily, "he'd got enough ofa
Sby that time."
WelL it wasn't much or an island, t)
hut there was enough to eat and the
Dreadnaught wouldn't be gone more
than two weeks or so, and Sam reck
oned he could stand it. He was rid b:
of the brig anyway, and of her otti- d
cers and men, and for a dpell he ti,
really hoped that they wouldn't come
E
back for him, for he'd begun to see a
where his wild cou.se was leading f
him.
After a while, however, he found st
;he loneliness well-nigh unbearable, i
And he began to count the days till fu
the brig snould come back. For the
silence on that island, which wasn't n<
much more than a coral reef, was *C
rwful. l
The island was one of the Bahamas
~-a turtle island, as seafaring people
tall them-and there was little possi- s1
bility of any other vessel appearing h
to deliver him from his captivity. C
Nqevertheless, he kept a signal flying e
from the highest portion of the place,
and even thought seriously of light.

When he'd been a little over a

up, lasting two days and nights and y
my! how it did blow! The morning b
athe third day, the storm be'ng
aroken,, when the sun rose the iignt
revealed, not half a mile from the ~
shore and running head on, a trim E
little schooner, under bare poles.
"Lucky it got light just as it did," a
thinks Sam. "If it hadn't, them fel. al
iers would have run ashore."
But as minute after minute passed w
and the vessel didn't change its ta
course, only yawing now and then as
though the helmsman was steerinu
unsteadily, Sam began to think tha~t st
something must be wrong aboard the fil
strange schooner. Hot a moving oh
ject appeared upon the deck and it t
wasn't long before the Crusoe realized H
that she was abandoned. at
There didn't appear to be anything
the matter with the craft, but there
she was, sailing straight on to the
island, without a hand to guide her.
Sam ran down to the shore, b*
kicked oti his boots and outer cloth- tl
ing, and plunging right through the
surf, struck out for the schooner.
She was approaching the island
slowly, for there wasn't a thread of st
sail spread, and he had taken the '
desperate chance of swimming out
and saving the vessel from destruc

Sam found that the hold was almost
