i-'acU* it loom into fairly gi­
gantic proportions, for there was little
wind stirring, and it eropt up in ghost*
ly fashion.
Suddenly the blocks rattled and the
boom creaked and groaned as it swung
about. For moment the craft hung
In the wind's eye There was a clatter
of feet, a yawl towing astern was pull
ed up under the rail, and three men in
yellow oilskins and varnished sea boots
tumbled Into her.
"Good day to you, lads! Drop down
with the tide tonight and we'll picli
you up off the Hook or thereabouts."
Tho hoarse voice of a broad shoul
dered man bellowed this through the
fog as he leaned over the rail. The
yawl had *heen cast off and dropped
astern. The boom croaked again, the
sail flapped sharply, displaying a huge
"8," and the pilotboat melted into the
fog once more, leaving the yawl cour
tesyiug on the gray waves.
Mitchell, the pilot in charge of tho
yawl, sat squarely in tfilp sternsheots,
a tiller rope in each hatiti. "Give way,
you fellows," he said, "if you want to
get to Gurnett time enough to have a
yarn with that girl."
"How In blazes caa we know where
Gurnett Is in this fog?" growled one of
them, bending his back to the ash.
The bow oar laughed. "Terry's sulky,"
he said, keeping stroke while he talked.
"Mina didn't care mooch to see him last
time he vas there—eh, Terry?"
"That's a lie!" declared stroke rough
ly. "She was just as glad to see me as
you."
"Shut up, Carl! Don't tease the fel
low," admonished Mitchell. "And you
needn't be so touchy, Terry."
"You'd be touchy, Mitchell," declar
ed stroke, swelling with his wrongs.
"Those two—he aud Mlna—jabber away
in their own confounded lingo, aud 1
can't understand h^lf they say. And I
knew her loug before he ever came nos
ing round," he added ruefully.
"Pooh! I wouldn't be jealous," said
Mitchell. "It's like the girl would be
glad to see somebody who can talk her
own language."
"Well, she can't have him and me
both," declared Terry, "and I'll tell her
that."
Carl from the bow seat chuckled and
showed a broad, laughing face to the
pilot. "She'll be mooch obliged for
that," he said. "Then she not have to
—what you call—ship you herself, eh?"
The other's eyes blazed with passion,
and he dropped his oar and with an
oath swung about to get at the Swede,
but tho steersman's voice recalled him.
"What d'you mean, you swab?" he
shouted. "Want to swamp the yawl?
Grab that oar, quick!"
With a shamed face the recreant1
stroke plunged his oar again deeply.
"Confound you and the girl both!"
pursued Mitchell. "You'll lose a yawl
nest, and no girl's worth that. If you'd
been a married man's long as me, you
wouldn't get to fighting over a wom
an."
The stroke hung his head, and even
Carl's merry face looked sober at the
calamity which Ihey had so narrowly
avoided, lie glanced behind him into
the impenetrable fog bank.
"We can nefer see where the land is,
even," he grumbled.
"You leave that to me," returned the
pilot. "I kin smell land. I don't need
eyes along this shore."
It must have been by the sense of
smell that Mitchell found the long pier
at Gurnett. He steered the yawl al
most directly in to the steps, although
they couldn't see the piles twenty feet
away. Carl stood up and cleared the
ice drift with his oar so that they could
get in without injuring the yawl. It
was after noon when they landed at
the pier.
"Now, we haven't more than an hour
to waste here," said Mitchell, settling
his hat more firmly upon his head. "If
3*ou go to see that girl, Terry, don't you
forget. lie back here in an hour. I'll
go along up street and buy the provi
sions we was sent for."
"And I'll go along with you," said
Carl, with a wink. "Then I'll keep out
of temptation, eh?"
"Just as well you do," growled Mitch

QUAKER MILL COMPANY 1
He and the Swede moved away, and
after a moment their companion fol
lowed them. But at tho end of the pier
he turned iuto a side street—a street
which fronted the water, with wharfs
and shipping on one hand and a row
of little shops and ship chandlers' ware
houses on the other. In this neighbor
hood, over the shops and warehouses
and In the courts and lanes behind
them, lived seafaring folk, many of
them of foreign extraction.
Terry turned into one of the little
shops where a big Swede stood behind
the counter. After greetings had pass
ed between them Terry looked around
as though he missed something or
somebody out of tho shop.
"You Iookln' for Mina, eh?" said the
Swede. "She vas joost gone to the
kitchen. She back will be in a min
ute."
But the girl did not come in a min
ute nor in several. Terry talked at
random, listening for the girl's step or
voice. Somebody came into the room
directly behind the shop, but it was
MIna's aunt, the big Swede's wife. He
asked a question in his own language
and at her reply turned to the sailor
again.
"She has comp'ny in the kitchen," he
said. "I guess she vill be back soon.
I'll haf the wife tell her you vas here."
S
Mina did not come. The sailor paced
the floor with anxious strides, his
thoughts growing the more bitter as
he waited. She knew he was there and
yet did not come. Ills hour's leave was
fast slipping away. Finally the shop
keeper's wife stuck her head into the
shop and saw him.
"Veil, veil!" she exclaimed, with a
laugh. "Iss it you? Vy didn't you say
so? Go ritlt into the kitchen if you
vant to see Mina."
"John said she had company there,"
said Terry, brightening up.
"Veil, dat Iss ridt, but It iss no stran
ger to you. Go in." And she waved
her hand toward the passage leading
to the kitchen.

Tho sailor followed her directions,
but as he approached the kitchen door
his heart failed him. He could hear
voices within—Mina's and a man's.
They were talking In the girl's own
tongue, and Terry's suspicions were in
stantly aroused.

forward and threw open the door. Mi
na, her face full cf laughter, sat upon
a bench beside and hor hand w::a hold
by—Carl Jansen!
"Oh!" she cried and sprang up as she
saw her lover's frowning visage at the
door. Carl sat still and laughed in the
jealous lover's face.
For a single instant Terry stood with
out motion or Fpoech. Thou ho turned
swiftly and was out of the lioui-v he
fore either Carl or Mina regained
breath.
When Mitchell came down to the pier
to which yawl No. 3 of the Halcyon,
officially known as pilotboat 8, was
tied, he found Terry there before him.
The sailor stood like a statue on the
strlngplece of the wharf, looking oflf in
to the fog. Mitchell had to speak to
him twice before he could arouse him.
Then the provisions came down on a
truck. They put them aboard, distrib
uting them so that the yawl rode even
ly, and then Carl appeared. Terry took
his oar with a set, white face and wait
ed for the pilot's word to give way.
"We've a nasty Job before us," said
Mitchell gloomily, casting off. "I hear
there's a lot of loose ice coining down
the bay. Attend right to business,
boys, and don't have any such skylark
ing as you did coming over. Are you
ready?"
"Aye, aye. sir!" from Carl.
Terry was silent, but dipped his oar
deeply, and In an Instant the pier was
out of sight. It seemed as though it
had drifted away from them and had
been smothered by the fog. not that
they had been swept away from It.
The tide had turned and was running
out fiercely. Occasionally tho yawl
crunched through a little Ice drift
"Look alive, boys," said Mitchell.
"Be ready to back water on the in
stant if I tell you. Some of these cakcs
we pass might smash yawl 3 like an
eggshell if we give 'em the chance."
Mitchell bent low, his sou'wester
shading his eyes, striving to peer ahead,
but it was all he could do to see the
boat's nose. Beyond was a blinding
curtain of fog.
The wind, too, had increased. The
tide was with them, but the wind
drove across the yawl's bows and
sometimes made her stagger. The fog
signals of the few craft belated in the
cuter bay sounded as though from a
great distance. The only other sound
besides the swish of the choppy waves
was a low, crooning noise, which seem
ed to grow momentarily.
"What is that?" shouted Carl, still
tugging at his oar.
Mitchell's face, such of It as was not
covered by beard, was white.
"That is ice, boys!" he exclaimed.
"I've heard it like that up north. It
must be a big jam coming down the
bay."
Terry did not appear to hear him.
His face was set and his thoughts
seemed far away.
"Are we in the vay?" bawled Carl.
"Whether we are or not, 1 reckon
we'd better run in shore. I guess the
Halcyon won't look for us tonight."
But as he spoke a change had taken
place. The wind began to whip a
cloud of fine sleety snow across their
He caught the rough coat sleeve just as
the hand slipped.
course. The snow stuck to the boat
and to their clothing in heavy, soggy
patches.
"I kin stand fog," growled Mitchell,
"but hang me if I like this. I duuno
which way we're headed. We might
as well go out with the tide, I reckon,
and risk the ice. Don't pull too hard,
boys. Just keep her steady."
He was obliged to speak again to
Terry to get him to reduce his stroke.
It seemed as though the turmoil in his
mind had shut out all appreciation of
the battle of the elements.
ArMlng to their danger were the Ice
cakes which now thickened around
them. Carl broke his oar short off
upon one, aud only by the quick action
of the pilot were they saved from
capsizing.
"Pull in your oar, Terry, and let me
have it," commanded Mitchell. "An
oar's enough sight better than a rud
der at such a pass as this."
Almost instantly, It seemed, the yawl
was in the midst of the Ice pack. The
snow swept down with fury upon
them. They could scarcely see the wa
ter for the whitocapped cakes. Mitch
ell growled maledictions on his mem
ory for not putting an extra pair of
oars in the boat. Terry sat amidships
without speech or motion, and finally
the pilot's vexation turned against him,
aud he cursed him roundly.
"You might be a stock or a stone!1
he said. "Are you dumb, man?"
"Will talklug mend It?" replied the
sailor aud fell into silence again.
Suddenly there was a shout from the
bow, and almost instantly the yawl
crashed into a huge cake and was driv
en back by the force of the collision.
As though it was a signal for a general
attack, the Ice advanced upon the
doomed boat upon either side. She was
crushed between two grinding, shoul
dering walls of driving cakes, and the
sea began to spurt between the strain
ed seams.
"We vas lost!" cried Carl, leaping up.
The shock which followed threw him
upon the ice pack.
"Overboard with you!" sang out
Mitchell. "She'll sink in a minute.
Got on a big cake, boys."
But only Terry heard him. Carl had
disappeared. The pilot and stroke of
the wrecked yawl found themselves
clinging side by side upou a huge cake
of ice.
"Where is he? Where Is he?" gasped
the sailor, at last aroused.
"Poor Carl! Poor boy!" groaned the
pilot.
"He mustn't drown!" cried Terry,
standing upright upon the tetering ice.
"He must be saved! Mina"—
The yawl disappeared, sucked under
by the tide. In the swirl of gray water
where it went down was a man's up
raised arm. The hand clung an instant
to the ragged edge of the ice.
Terry swooped down upon it instant
ly. He caught the rough coat sleeve
just as the hand slipped and with a
mighty heave brought Carl's head and
shoulders out of tho Icy water. In a
breath ther had drazsud their comrade

out of the jaws of death.
The Swede spat out the water he had
swallowed and recovered his breath.
"That vas noble of you, old man," he
said to Terry.
"Stow that!" was the rough reply.
Carl's teeth began to chatter, and
Terry aud Mitchell hugged him up be
tween them that the warmth of their
bodies might In some measure counter
act the chill he had received. The
snow, which still fell, packed around
and over them until they might have
been a part of the ice cake to which
tliey clung. Mitchell raised his head
occasionally the better to listen.
"Can't honr a single horn," he de
clared. "We might as well be in the
middle of the Atlantic Instead of a mile
or so offshore. I duuno but we'd better
shout."
"What for?" grumbled Carl.
"To keep you from going to sleep,
youuker," returned the pilot sharply.
"Are you cold?"
"X-not very," chattered the Swede.
"It's death, lad!" cried the pilot.
"Rouse up aud keep yourself warm."
"I won't let him go to sleep, sir," said
Terry.
"You're very good, both of you," de
clared Carl. Then he added In his
mate's ear, "She don't care nottin'
'bout me, Terry."
"Who?" exclaimed the other, with a
nervous start.
"Why, Mina. We vas joost teasin'
you. It vas her sister I lofe, not her—
her sister in the faderland. She vill be
ofer here in a mont', and we vill be
marry."
Suddenly Mitchell commanded si
lence.
"I hear something yonder," he said.
After several minutes the dull bark
ing of a foot power foghorn reached
their cars.
"The old Halcyon, for a dollar!"
cried the pilot. "Let's shout."
A quavering, long drawn "Aho-o-y!"
arose from the crow of yawl 3. Again
and again it was repeated. Occasion
ally through the falling snow and ever
present fog the deep, grinding note of
the horn clieered them. It drew
nearer.
"If we don't pass 'em!" groaned
Mitchell, standing ercet in his eager
ness.
Then a hail through a trumpet readi
ed them iu the very teeth of the
storm.
"Aho-o-y!"
"Help! Help!" roared the pilot.
"We're starb'd of you—iu the Ice!"
The foghorn kept snorting to cheer
them, but they soon heard something
else—that rattle of oars approaching.
Of a sudden the bow of a four oared
boat pushed into view. A man stood
upright in the boat, a coll of rope in
his hand. Instantly the rope was
flung to them, and by its aid all three
were drawn into the lifeboat.
"So this is the way you go ashore for
provisions, is it?" growled the cap
tain of the Halcyon as the yawl's
crew scrambled in.
"Well, cap, you come darn near los
ing us as well as the yawl and the
store truck," remarked Mitchell, calm
ly taking the tiller and steering un
erringly for the pilotboat, whose fog
horn growled at Intervals to guide
them.
But Terry put his lips close to the
Swede's ear and asked:
"Is it true?"
"Iss vat true?"
"That about Mina?"
"Of course It Iss, and if you a chump
don't be you vill marry her when I
marry Sophie next mont'—eh?"
