CHAPTER I.
TnH VOUNO I.OVKH8.
AvoNfi tlio many cliiirmmpr homes bv which the
eastern shores of Long Island lmd become adorned,
a score ol years a;ro, was one which pre-eminently
enpncs our attention. It wns nitmted upon tho
fairest of tho lironil inlets which cliHraclerl.o the
southern side of .Shelter Islanil, ami wus occupied hy
Mr. James Lawrence, a retired merohuut prince of
Hew York.
There were but two persons visible about tlio
grotiuds.
The one was a mere boy, a youth of sixteen or
seventeen years, but one whose every look and ac
tion, young nx ho was, gave striking promise of no
ordinary manhood.
The companion of our liro was, like himself, at
the very threshold of actual existence, B-sircely
turned of fourteen, flushed Willi the promise
Of a noble nd glorious womanhood.
She wum Lily Lawrence, the only child and heiress
Of the retired merchant. Hehind the yuuujr couple
were the grounds and mansion ; before them two
small Ball-boats, one of them bearing this name The
Water Lily.
"I bi Kin to lie tired, Richard,'' at length murmured
the young girl. "The boat is now In the shade, as
pleasant as can be, rocking softly on the beach. Let
us sit down in it,"
"Agreed, Lily," responded the youth. "We'll have
a good talk with each other.''
"Well, what shall we talk about?" demanded tho
little maiden.
"Ifs talk about our future, Lily what we will
do when we are grown up," suggested Richard.
"1 can't, look forward further than to-iitglit," said
Lily, smiling. "Pupa and mamma will bo home about
ten o'clock li om New York, with loads of presents
for you and me, Richard. Let's guess what tlioy will
luring us, Dick."
"Vt eli ; I guess a new dress for you, Lily, some
jewelry ami a lot of puzzles and games."
"I guess a lot of books for you, Dick, ami a new
set of chessmen, and a splendid gold watch."
The boy's eyes sparkled.
"How good father and mother are to me!" he Raid,
With deep fecllDg. "Tlicv could not treat me better

w York on mysterious business."
IV'Mysterious business ?" echoed the lad.
Lily nodded her head sagely.
"Yes," she said. "Yon know, Richard. I've git a
dreadful uncle, an awful bad man that u;;ed to make
papa lots of trouble?''
"Yes, Lily."
"Well, It's my opinion that my wicked uncle has
turned up!" said Lily, solemnly.
"Oh, I hope not, Lily J" Richard exclaimed. "He's
a rough, bad man. lie used to live with father and
do nothing till you were boru, expecting to In
herit your father's wealth. Hut, after your birth, he
cursed you awiully, and father sent him on", ami he
went to sea, and father thinks he's now mate or cap
tain of a vessel."
"Would you like to be a sailor, Dick?"
"No, Lily ; I don't love the sea. It cast me on this
beach, a foi lorn and helpless child, robbing me of
all my friends of even my name,'' and the lad's
bright face clouded over. "I wish I knew my real
name, who I am, and If I have any relatives living,
fctotuer says I was expensively dressed when they
picked me up, half-drowned, and that I wore this
chain and locket around my neck," and ho drew
from his bosom a slender Floreniinc gold chain, with
an exquisite locket, delicately set with pearls In tho
form of a monogram. "I think my own mother put
It on my neck, and I shall always wear It. See, Lily !
there are two locks of hair within tho locket a yel
low and a black one, with the mimes 'Richard and
Anna.' I suppose they were the names of my
parents."
"Of course!" said Lily, as he restored the trinket
to his bosom. "It's a pity they didn't put their full
names ; but if they had, I shouldn't have had my
brother."
"I'm glad I'm not your brother, Lily," said Richard,
gravely.
"Glad!" cried Lily, startled "glad !"
"Y'es, I am glad!" reiterated tho lad, a soft glow
Of tenderness sutfusing his noble features. "If you
were my sister you would leave me some time, aud I
wart you always with mo."
"I'll live with you, Dick," assented Lily.
"But I should want you for my wife, Lily," urged
-the lad, with the ardor and tenderness of many an
older lover. "Will you marry me, dear Lily ?"
"Why, of course," Bid the lit'-le maiden', naively.
"I expected to marry you, Richard, when i should
be old enough."
The lad was enraptured.
lie drew LHy to him, showering kisses upon her face
and hair, calling her by a host of tender names that
came rapidly to his tongue.
"Richard," said Lily, "engaged ladies always wear
engagement rings. I ought to have one."
"You shall have a diamond one when I go to New
York," hastily promised the young lover. "If you
wouldn't mind a plain gold one, Lily, I've got one
that's too small for me among my things. Will you
wear it till I can get a handsome one ?"
Lily graciously assented, and Richard hastened to
wards the mansion.
When he had gone, the little maiden looked out
unon the pleasant bay.
"We ought to live here," she mused. "I am
sure this is the prettiest spot in the whole
world !"
She watched the ships Idly.
One of the ships exhibited a bustle and confusion
that showed It was on the point of departure. It was
a whaling vessel, as Us build and appearance plainly
declared.
"She Is going for whales," murmured Lily, half
unconsciously ; "she may be goue two or three years
most of the whale ships are."
She was still gazing at the outward-bound whaler,
wrapt in her musings, when a dark and siuister face
was thrust out from the shelter of a dense clump of
bushes, a score of rods east of her, near the water,
In the Bhadcw of some cliirs, and a pair of tierce and
Inflamed eyes regarded her a moment with an evil
and scheming expression.
This wicked-looking face was withdrawn almost
Immediately into the depths of the bushes, as the
Bound of the lad's returning footsteps rang out on tho
gravelled path.
"Here It is, I.ily," said Richard, bnundlng over tho
beach into the boat, and proudly exhibiting the little
circlet that was to be the seal or the childish be
trothal. "Let me put It on your linger."
"I shall show it to mamma when she comes homo,"
said Lily, "and tell her that we are engaged. See
that ship, Dick, starting out on a voyage," she
i added, pointing at the distant vessel sho had been
watching. "1 wMi we had your pocket telescope
here, Dick ; I should so like to see the people on that
"1 can get It In three minutes," said Richard. "It's
on the library table."
He bounded awav, and Lily sank down on tho
cushions, pillowing her head upon one of tliein.
CHAPTER II.
A DESPERATE RESOLUTION.
Bho was tired with her day's sports and wander
ings. i n was little wonder, then, that her head bad
scarcely pressed the cushion when she fell asleep.
Richard was absent full twenty minutes, returning
to his sleeping charge when the shadows of evening
were settling permanently around her. His search
for his portable telescope had for some time been
unsuccessful.
"Here It Is, Lily," he said, springing to the Bide of
the boat "1 thought I never should tiud it, and, now
I've got it, it's too late to use it. Why, Lily, darling,
are you asleep?" , ,
Ho looked down upon the unconscious little
maiden, caressed her hulr. and covered It tenderly.
"Poor 1 little tired Lily," he whispered, softly. "It

THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY,
For a moment the lad was stunned with tho dread
ful truth.
"The boat ha floated off the bench I" ho ex.
claimed. "I might have foreseen It. The tldo has
risen, and the wind with it. The wind is driving her
seaward ; but I will soon ovcrtako her. Lily, darling,
I'm coming I"
lie sprang Into the remaining boat, ptiBlied off, set
the sail, and hurried oil' in pursuit ol the girl, strain
ing his eyes through the darkness to discover some
sign of her.
lint w hen he reached tho spot where the boat had
vanished, and, straining his eyes in every direction,
caw no sign of the missing boat and girl, hit was
(iluikcn by a sharp and dreadrul apprehension.
"Oh, Lily! my poor littlo Lily !" he groaned, with
nu anguish too great for expression, but without paus
ing In tho earnest pursuit. "What does this mean?
Where can the boat be? Why does It drift so swiftly?
Oh, Lily 1" '
Keeping his eye fixed In tho supposed direction of
the Water Lily, he strained every nerve, spread
every stleh of sail in his wild fronzy, and yet ho per
ceived no sign of her.
"Help! help!" he shouted at lap. In despair, as
bis course led him past a group ol Hulling boaU re
turning homeward from Hag Harbor. "Stop that
boat! It. got loose irom Shelter Islanil ! Help!"
Ills excited voice Immediately commanded atten
tion. Naturally enough, perhaps, tlio fishermen, in
stead of seeking the missing boat, drew near to
question the pursuer.
In iiroken words, tremulous with excitement and
reviving hope, Richard told his story us briefly us pos
sible. liefore many minutes had passed, tho Water Lily
Was overtaken and stopped.
Richard's boat fairly skimmed over the sound, his
veins throbbing with his exultant Joy, his heart
brminiing over wllh a mighty thanksgiving.
"Is siie asleep yet?" lie asked. "Sho was very
tired. 1 will not wake her up."
Hie Ushers looked at each other in silence. Then
one of them silently took a lantern uud Hashed It
over the Water I.ily.
'1 lie boat was empty!
There was a dent In tlio cushion where Lily's
golden head had rested.
Hut Lily herself was gone!
"Where where Is Lily?" Dick ga-iped.
One of the llnhermen answered :
"She must have waked up dazed-like. Most likely
she didn't know where she was. P'raps she thought
she was getting out o' bed. Poor little Lily Law
rence! Wo all know'd her pretty, sweet face, and
we all loved her! I never passed her pa's place
without hoi wlshin' me luck, and 'twas so with the
rest. She was nu angel, and she's goue home to live,
Muster Dick, with the rest, of tho angels !"
'Demi: drowned!" cried tho boy, wildly. "Yes,
She Is dead !"
He stood there, white, tearless, and despairing,
like a still ue of grief.
"Her folko ought to bo told," said one of tho fisher
men, in a low tone.
Slowly and reluctantly he trimmed his sail, and set
out upon his errand.
The remaining timbers then strove, In tholr rude,
kindly way, to comfort, the stricken iad. Hut, the
sound of their voices jarred on his tortured spirit,
and lie cried :
"I want to be alone. Let me go off by myself!
Oh, Lily, Lily!"
The Ushers drew ofT silently and sadly, deeming It,
best to leave the lad alone with his grief, and soon
Richard was solitary uuild tho shadows upon tho
water.
"Perhaps I am over Lllv's drowned body!" ho
said aloud, peering over into tho dark waters. "Oh,
If 1 might only join her! 1 cannot live without
lur!"
At length he sat up, and looked with haggard race
towards his home.
Lights were gleaming from tho windows of the
dwellii.g, and lanterns were Hushing ulung tlio
beach, and over the lawn.
"They are looking lor Lily and me,'' he murmured,
faintly. "Father and mother have come homo. Oil,
I cuu never, never face them a;ain! They took care
of me all my life; they have showered continual
blessings upon me uud what a return I have made!
They 1 ft Lily in my charge, and return to find her
drowned ! They will loathe the sight of me. It was
through my carelessness Lily was drowned Lliy for
whom I would gladly have loid down my own life!
I cannot go back oh, never, never!"
With sudden eagerness for flight he adjusted his
sail and directed his course toivurds Sag Harbor, his
only idea being to hide himself somewhere where
the reproachful glances of Lily's parents might never
reach him.
Tho great lantern of the whaling vessel drew
nearer and nearer, as did the lights of Sag Harbor.
As he approached the vessel in tho darkness, and
marked its signs of Immediate departure, a desperate
thought entered his mind.
"She is only waiting for some of tho stragglers of
her crew," he thought. "The wind is right. She'll
coon be off. Where can I lose myself to father and
mother so completely as on a winder?''
lie approached the vessel as iUletly as possible.
She was lying to, just without Sag Harbor, heading
towards Cedir Island. The night was dark, and
only a few men were visible on her deck. The lurid
light of the lantern enabled Richard to note all these
circumstances sulllciently for his purpose.
He crept under the bow softly, seized tho martin
gale by a desperate leap, aud began to climb to tho
bowsprit, and thence. In tho shadow of tho jib,
creeping down to the deck. He paused when ho had
gained a secure footing, anil removed his shoes,
looking around aud seeing that his arrival was un
noticed. He then moved softly along the deck to tho
ct.nipanlon-way, supped down, ami round lilmseir in
a dimly-lighted, disagreeably-smelling cabin.
1 he steward's pantry was oil' this, and Richard
beheld a couple of individuals within it, engaged In
imbibing hot liquors. Tlieir backs were towards
him, and tho boy crept along in the shadow, gained
an empty state-room, snppeu in, aim concealed nun.
self beneath Hie bunk.
CHAPTER III.
LILY AND I1EK CAPTOR.
While our young heroine lay asleep in her boat
upon tlie beach in I rout oi ner rather s dwelling,
during the absence of her rostor-brother, as re
corded, the sinister face which had peered upon her
from a neighboring cluster of bushes was again
thrust into prominence. Upon this repulsive vlsago
had now appeared an expression akin to villainous
contentment.
"It certainly looks so," muttered, in a hoarse voice,
the Individual to wnoiu mat evu-iouKiug lace be

As already staicu, rue shadows or mgni naa en

There was ugin euougu ior niui to mum uer ica

"The thing's done," breathed the villain, in a

"11 was about here I ordered the boat to be in

His cautious, hissing whisper was answered by

of an ordluiiry whale-boat near at hand, which had

The two bouts approached each other, and their
sides soon touched.
The villain then lifted Lily very carefully In his
arms, and stepped over into the whulo-bout, tread
ing upon i.iiv s nut us ue weut.
"Now for the ship, boys," ho whispered. "Let the
boat I came in drift where she will. Away with us
QUICK I"
The whale-boat darted away In obedience to
these orders, and tho Water Lily was left to be the
sport oi the winus auu the waves, uutu round by tlio
pursuer.
The littlo maiden stirred uneasily in the embrace
of her enemy, and awakened with a sudden start.
"Is It you, Dick? ' sue asked, "Where are you
taking me? Why. it's dark, and we're on the water.
L'eur Dick, let's go right home! Papa and mamma
will soon be mere i"
"Shut up, you young one!" commanded her
enemy, menacingly. "Not a word not a cry or
I'll chuck you over into the water!"
Lily almost fainted with fright, her eyes looking
wildly up at her captor.and her heart almost ceasing
Its pulsations. Such a shock she had never before
experienced.
The whale-boat avoldod the fishing-boats upon
the Bound, steering straight for tho whaling vessel
which the young couple had remarked, and about
which Lily hud indulged in so many speculations,
and which had so mysteriously delayed Its departure.
In a short time the bout was alongside, the cap
tain climbed to the deck with his light burden, and
hastily descended to the cabin.
Wlitt a place Jor the delicately-nurtured, daintily
bnd Lily!
Tin re was no one In the cabin, but a hideous black
face looked out of the steward's pantry tho face of
the cabin cook.
Captain Stocks set down his pale and trembling
bu I'd i n upon a wooden bench that served as a divan,
and culled loudly to tho black cook, who Immediately
obeyed the summons.
"This Is my daughter, Buipio ," said the captain,
keeping uxel1 "oiiaclngly upon tho little
captive "1 told you yesterday that my wlfo ran

made her shudder with fear. "You understand,
Feipio, that yon are to keep your eye on this young
lady. You are not to let her out of your Bight."
"I'll remember, sir," said Se.lpio, with a grin that
Showed his double row of ivories.
"And, Se.lpio. you are not to listen to her prayera
and beseechings."

"And if I tell jou to fHug her overboard, you will

"Yes. cap'n," said tho negro, who had evidently

clasp-knife from his pocket, and assumed a threat

towards her, and the child fairly screamed with

Lily was looking up at him with wild aud wonder

lii in her white brows, and her pule face till aglow
with suppressed excitement. She nodded giaveiy,
and he continued :
The good brother built him a splendid homo on

"And you uud you " gasped Lily, with dilat
ing eyes.
"1 am Captain Stocks, of the winder Dolphin,
otherwise lladlcy Lawrence, tho 'wicked brother,'"
said the captain, with a mocking bow and a sneer
ing smile.
"Then you must be my bail uncle!" ejaculated
Lily, full of horror and surpiie. "What do you
mean by carrying me off lu this manner ?"
"1 mean," lie said, "to J5ive you a voyage around
the world."
II don't understand you," said Lily, with a
pitiful quiver of her lip.
"No? Then let mo explain. My vessel Is bound
on a three years' voyage, liefore mv return home, I
shull put you in safe custody in some far oil' quarter
of the giobe. 1 shall then come back, search out

existence, keeping you well-guarded in your far-oil'
prison. Can yon understand my programme?"
"Yes, I understand you!" cried Lily, indignantly.
"I should think you would choke wilii so maiiy
wicked words."
He opened a door beside Lily, and exhibited the
small stale room. A largo new trunk stood against
the wall, the key in the lock. The captain lifted the
lid, displaying its contents.
"Why, those are my own tilings!" cried Lily, In
astonishment, recognizing In the micella uejiis
heap, dresses, underclothing, shoes, and hats she
had worn. "How did they come here?"
"I got them out of your house this morning, when
you were in the garden, and the servants were oil'
by themselves."
"Hut I am not going off with yon!" exclaimed
I.ily. "I urn going ashore to papa, mamma, aud
Dick."
She sprang up, darting towards the door of the
cabin, w ith a wild hope of escape.
liefore fhe could reach the companion-way, the
captain's broad strides had brought him beside her,
and his heavy hand was laid ou her shoulder.
"None o' that!" he said, with an ugly look. "I've
got to go ashore again ou business before we sail,
und I can't waste more time here. No use in your
trj ing to escape. Sclplo has got his eyes on you."
He thrust her into the dark state-room, locked the
door, putting the key in his pocket, and ordering tlio
negro to keep u close guard over the captive.
lie then went about his business.
The child thoroughly exhausted herself with tlio
vehemence of her emotions and exertions to escape,
calling wildly on her parents for rescue, but at last
Bhe dropped into her berth, moaning aud sobbiug
faintly:
"Oh, Dick, dear Dick, come to me ! Conio aud
save your poor Lily !"
Tho poor littlo captive had no suspicion of
Richard s presence, and yet, by a merciful Provl
dene, the oesperate resolution of our young hero
hud carried him aboard of that very vessel !
CHAPTER IV.
LIOUT IN DARKNESS,
How lonely and desolate he was ! No word can'
describe his Badness.
For a long tiuie he lay there, thinking of his lost
I.ily, of her parents' despair aud wretchedness, and
of 'his hopeless, darkened life. The ship sailed
across Gardiner's bay, passed outsldo of Gardiner's
isliind, and struck the swell of the Atlautio. What
a voyage what a life was before him !
"We are fuirly out to Bea," he said, at last, as the
rolling and pitching of the vessel declared the fact.
"1 must own up Boon. I wonder what the cuptaiu
will say when he sees me!"
Ho wiped away his tears manfully, repulsed tlio
feeling of desolation that came over him, und began
slowly to emerge from his concealment.
As might have been expected from the life he and
Lily hud led. spending bulf their tlmo on the water,
neither of them felt the slightest inclination to sea
sickness. Hut to both the peculiar greasy odor per
vading tho vessel was almost intolerable, uud Kichard
began to long for the fresh air of the decks.
He crept across the state room, aud placing him
self noiselessly In the doorway, peered luto tlio
dingy cabin.
The door of tho steward's pantry was open, and
the fte'ward a negro named Tawkins was engaged
In entertaining bcipio w ith a tempi ing beverage,
receiving iu return all the news at Sclplo s com
mand. "So the captain nas brought ins daughter aboard,
has he?" Bald Tawkins. "1 Jest wish 1 could a scon
her. Does she look tike the captain?"
"About as much us a lamb looks like a tiger," Bald
Sclplo, with a grin. "Why, Bhe's a tiuty-touty thing,
with hair tho color o' sunshine, and ej us like bits o'
deep blue sky. She's going to make a voyage with
us!"
"It's bad luck to have a women aboard," said Taw-
, kins, reflectively. "I knew of a ship once, where
1 the captuiu'a w ile was aboard, and the ship was lost
i and every soul drowned. U s a temptiu' o' Provl
I deuce to take women to sea!"
"it'd be worse luck to go against tho captain's

1 than the wind can, and tho weight of his arm is
somethiir awful. Last v'yage, you know, he liked to
a killed one of the sailors, and that very feller Is in
i Die New York 'ospinle now with a general used-up
I tiody. Can't walk, nor talk, lior uothiu' so I hear.
I The captain i awful!"
Richard negaii 10 iiuu iv uo nilgai oeircr nave re
mained ashore.
"Is the captains bed made, Tawkins?" asked
Sclplo, after a pause.
The steward replied In tho negative.
"I'll make it then," suid Sclplo, 'andyoucan help.
Where are the blankets und sheets?"
Richard, uutleipuUug the reply, closed the door aud
concealed himself behind the further pile of blan
ket". A moment later, the two negroes entered lhi
state-room, and comuieuced leisurely selectlug tho
required stores.
"What did you say the young lady's name was,
Sclplo?" Inquired Tawkins, holding a lantern, while
his friend tumbled over tho piles of blankets.
"I didn't say, but It's Lliy. Tho captain lound her
on Shelter Island."
What a great leap Richard's heart gavel Ilo
started so violently us almost to betray himself, and
it was wllh dlillcuity he could prevent himself from
uttering a thoiit.
A conviction of the glorious truth flashed upon his
soul with the quickness of lightning.
I.llv was living was on board this very vessel.
While his mind was In a maze or blissful raptnre
the two men passed out, and he was left to himself.
Ills f ist Impulse was to lllug himself at lull length
and sob like a child. His Joy and thanksgiving
found vent in a shower of tours, which seemed to
relieve alike the pressure on heart and brain.
Notwithstanding thai the girl had been spoken of
as the captain's daughter, he believed her to be his
own fcht I.ily. As his brain grew clearer, his mind
grew busy w ith speculations, and he soon arrived ut
an Idea siiinew here near the truth.
"Lily's uncle Is a pallor, and what, sailor beside
him could want to entry her odV lie is going to
take her far away, and maybe he means to kill
futl'er and mother, and inherit all the Lawrence
property. Poor little Lliy I .My heart aches to com
fort her. The key Is Inside her door. I must go to
her!"
He again arose and peered out ini tlv; cnbln.
The door of the captain's state-room was open aud
the two negroes were busy making up the berth.
Ilo could not move yet to Lily s assistance. lie
must wait he must, have patience.
While he stood there, his face pnte and Hushing,
his heart sinking and swelling with despondency
and hope, the captain und mate came down the
compiinlon-w ay, and sal down at the cabin t:yno,
callirg for sundry drinks, which Tawkins liusiened
to prepare.
The two men talked over their wine a full hour,
telling what they should do In case tneir present
whaling expedition proved sueeessiul. and drinking
repeatedly to the desired sucee.-'.a.
it seemed to Richard u;s if they never would sepa
rate. He crouched behind the olowd door, war ins for
Ihelr departure, aud trembling bo tuai. he could
bcurcely stand.
"1 shall be a rich man one of those davs. Bill," said
th o captain at last, when the ma c tuov " "I might
bo now II 'twHii't for two young uns niy girl 'in
there and a boy that's nothing to iijimdy, a refuse of
the waves, but who may stum! between mo and a
handsome property, one of these days, Hill, when
you are captain Instead of mate of the old Dolphin,
1 may get you to dispute of my line young gentleman
forme. Hy George! I'd give a pretty sum to see
Hint lad in your hands:"
The mate laughed, uud said that he should bo glad
to see the same, lor a lavor dona to Captain S'.ocks
was Fine of reward. He then went up ou deck,
leaving the commander to himself.
Kicliii'd IiiBllnef.ve.ly iiudemlooil Uio "line young
pent Ionian" referred to to be himself. His suspicions
tiud the ciipliilii was the brother of his fo.sler-J.it her
und benefactor had received continuation.
it ns another mil hour before the captain rcllred.
He talked to Neipio, enjoining on him a ceaseless
vigilance towrrd the captive, promising him tempt
ing rewards Ior faithfulness, lie listened at Lily's
door to assure himsell i hat she s ept, and dually ho
withdrew into his state-room, closed his door, and
hi loud breathing soon attested his somnolence.
Scipio Hung himself on the bes.i li licit m r . e I as a
cabin olvan, and tossed and rolled cuout slecjlessly,
u tub hull hour more.
I'.iit at length he, too, slept.
'iheii Kiciiard, who hud remained sleepless and
vigilant, again opened his door, ii'id looked out
v. n'h what brealiilcssness, with what subdued ex
ert! incut, can be well imagined.
The negro was snoring, with his face to the wall.
Ptfide him, there was no one in the cabin. Tho
i ini'ky lamp burned dimly, ami the sound of slea ly
tminpinv, came from the deck, whenc members of the
watch were walking and talking together.
Ureal IiIcks v. ilh excitement, IMcii.trd stole out into
the cabin, closing his Btiite-roc;.! door behind him.
'1 he time had come for action.
Creepti'.g n l:.cli ssiy nlon;r tin; wit'!, ills restless
gaze divided between the negro, the coiiip-inion-'.vay,
unit the captain's door, tic slide to the ent-auce of
Lily's apartment.
How lie trembled as lie turned the handle, pressing
upoK it!
It v added to his touch the. door was not locked,
lie roftly gliib il in !
Closing the door behind him, be softly locked it,
tiliiiing the key in its place.
Then he crept up to the berth, ami looked in, as
well us the ilaikne-BS permitted.
Yes, I hero was his Lily bin lost, Lily mint and
pale as one dead, her golden hair streaming over her
pillow, her long, cuning lashes on her dicks, vail
ing tin" sweet, sunt eyes, and her breath faintly com
ing and going between her parted lips.
M enr.v, strungtlilees, and despairing, she lay there
like a broken flower.
liojv Richard's heart swelled with jry and rapture
as be looked on Hie lovely laoa he had th night ivlng
under the rest'ess waves! What a mighty yearning
LIU d his soul ut sight of her llvirg, breathing form !
"Lily!" lie whispered solily, taking her llieleb3
linnd in his own.
The cj clashes atirrod a HI tie, and tho hauj qui
vered a llitlo in ills gr-ip.
"I.ily!" lie whispered again, with a solemn, iuef
fuble tenderness. "I.ily, bailing it is Hick !''
'1 lie words seemed to galvanize the litr.le creature
into new life. She opened wide tier wondering eyes,
looked ut In in wildly then a sudden comprehension
of lu r great joy rushed over her, and she buried her
face in his bosom, weeping out her th nksgiviug.
j She made no outcrv she uttered no scivam
such rapture as hers linds expression best iu silent
; tears.
i Richard folded her clone to hi loving heart, and
shed upon her bright head tears like hers-solemn,
Joyful ictus!
