"O, hang It, no," ho cried "pull on.

wu had thu satisfaction ofscelng tiio re

" Keep olfa llttloliow," 1 Whispered,
or wu shall bu ashore."
"No, no, it's nil right," was tho re
ply "wo uro Just over tho swatch"
hull is Iho local term given to tiio
longchaimuls washed out In tho sand
by tlin tide, hero and there forming deep
trenchesalong the const, very dangerous
for bathers.
" Hy Jingo, they.fceuus," I whispered
when my companion backed watcr,mid
tlie consequence, was, that thu boat's
hcpd turned right In-shorc, and wo
lloated between tho piles, and wero
next moment, with shipped oars, out
of sight In the outlet of the gowt.
Now, I'm not prepared to glvo the
derivation of tho word "gowt," but I
can descrlbo what It Is, namely, thu
termination, nt tho sea-const, of the
long Lincolnshire lnnd-dralns, In thu
shape of a lock with gates, which nru
opened at certain times, to allow tho
dralnago to How under the sand into
tho sea, but carefully closed when tho
tldu is up, to prevent Hooding of tho
marsh-lands, protected by the high sea
bank, widen runs along tho const, nml
nets tho part of clilfs. Trom these lock-
gales, it square woodwork tunnel is for'
mod hy means of piles driven Into the
shore, and crossed with stout planks;
nnd this covered water-way in somo
ises runs for perhaps two hundred
yards right beneath tho .-and-bank, then
beneath tho sand, and lias its outlet
somo distnnce down tho shoro while,
to prevent tho air blowing tho tunnel
up when tho sea conies In, n cotiplo of
square wooden pipes descended nt In

comes in ; ami at times, when tho tun
uel Is pretty full, the water.wlll, after
chasing the air, ru-li out after It, and
form a spray fountain; while as tho
waves recede, thu winds rush back with
astrange whistling sound.and a draught
thai draws anything down into the tun

another peculiarity of tho hollow way
tlmt was strangely impressed upon my
memory that night, namely, its pow
er of acting ns a vast speaking-tube, for
if a person stood at one of the escape
pipes and whispered, his words were
distinctly audlblu to another at thu
other nine somo lift v yards oil, who
could ns easily respond.
"Well, it was into tlie mouth of tho
gowt tunnel that wu hud now run thu

thu piles with his hands, my companion
worked the boat farther into tho dark-

sand.
"That'ssnug," lie whispered: "they'lf

"Then we shall bu stopped from get

" Nonsense." ho said. "It will taku

" If wo'ru not drowned," 1 said

" Hut 1 don't," I replied; "I am stanch

" Well, who does?" he said. "Only

Tho few minutes wu had been con
versing had been long enough for tho
tide to float tho boat once more.andthls
time I ral-ed my hand to the roof, and
thru-ting agaln-t tho tunnel-covered,
weed-hung, slimy woodwork, soon had
tho boat's keel again In the sand, sons
to prevent her being sucked out by the
rellux of tho tide
At times wo could bear shouts, twice
nl-tol-shots, and then wu wero startled
hy the dull, heavy report of a small
cannon. , ,
" That's alter t he rtiwwiim," wills-
poicd my companion; "but she sails
liko a wllch. She's .-ale mile-- they
knock a -par away."
" I wl.-h ur were," 1 said, for I did
not feel nt till comfortable lu our dark
hole, up which wo wero being forced
farther and further by Iho Increasing
tide; while more than one wo bad to
hold on tightly by thu horrible slimy
spiles, to keep from being drawn back.
" Ju-t tho place to tiuu (lean Domes,"
whispered my companion, evidently to
to startle me.
' .lu-tso," I said coldly. "Perhaps
they'll Hud two to-morrow."
" Don't croak," was the polllo rejoin-
dor; and then ho was silent , but I could
hour a peculiar boring nol.-u beingmade,
and no further attempts at a Jokul ued
from my friend's lips.
" Suppose wo try and get out now?"
I whispered, after another quarter of an
hour's listening In Iho darkness, anil
hearing nothing hut thu soft rippling,
and the "drip, drip" ofwato beyond
us whllo towards tho nioutli-camo tho
"lap, lap" of tho waves ugnlnsttho
sides ot'tho tunnel, succeeded by a rush
ing nol-e, und tho rattling of tho mus
sels clustering to tho woodwork, now
loudly, now gently while every light
rustlu of the seaweed scorned to send u
shiver through me.
The nol-o ns of boring had ceased
somu time, and my friend now drew my
nltentlon to ono of thu kegs, which ho
had inadoaholo through with his knife;
nnd never before) did spirits comu so
welromo ns at that moment.
"Hettertry nnd gel out now," whis
pered my coinjinnion.
"They must bo somowhero hnndy,
though ono can't seo even their boat,"
said n strange voice, which scorned hoi
low and echoed along tho tunnel.wlille
the rattling of tho shells mid Innplug of
tho wider grow louder.
All at oiico I raised my head, its If to
feel for the liolodown which tho sound
"Wilt libit," said my companion,
thickly; "tliey'ro on the look-out yet j
It'o madness to go out." Ami 1 then
heard it noise which told mo, tiint fear
ful or not, lie was) trying to drown con
sclousness In the liquor to which bo had
miuio uis way.
However, It seemed to inu madness
(o stay whero wo were, to bo drowned
liko rats In n hole ', nnd Inking ad vantngo
of thu next receding wave, I gave tho
boat n start, und sho went down towards
the mouth of tho tunnel forallttluwuy,
n coming current would have driven
her back, only I clung to tho roof, now
very Iowdown,andrathcrcloso to which
tho bont now lloated. Another thrust,
nnd I pushed her somu dl9tnnco down j
but with tho next wavo that ennio In,
my hand wnsjnmniedngulnsttho slimy
roof,nnd unnerved with liorror.I gasped:
"House up, Harry I tho mouth's under
water I"
Hollowly sounded my volco ns the
wavo sank, nnd T felt once moro free,
and In sheer despair forced tho boat
lower down the tunnel ; but this time,
when tho tide camo In again, I had to
lio right back, tho boat rose so high, and
I felt the dripping sea-weed hanging
from tho roof sweep coldly nnd slimlly
over my faeo; when, boforo tho next
wave could rnlso us, I thrust eagerly at
thu side, forcing the boat Inward again,
but In the fear and darkness, got her
across tho timnel,so that head and stern
were wedged, nnd as tho next rush of
water came, ltsmototlto boat heavily,
nnd mndo her a fixture, so that, In splto
of my efforts, I could not move her eith
er way.
Wash camo tho water again nnd again,
nntl nt every dnsh n portion camo into
the boat, drenching mo to the skin;
whllo I now became awaro that Harry

pilled aero-s tho kegs, and breathing
heavily
1 mndo ono more effort to inovo tho
boat, but It was tighter titan ever; and
after conquering an Insane desire to dlvo
out, und try nnd swim to the mouth, I
let myself cautiously dowu on the Inner
side and stood, with tho water breast'
high, clinging to thu gimwnlo of thu
boat. Tho next moment it rose above
my mouth, lifting mo from my fect,and
as it rushed back, sucked my legs be
neath tho boat ; hut I gained my feet
again, and began to wade Inward.
Yet strong upon mo me ns wns tho
de.-lro for life, I could not lenvo my
companion to his liuu in so cowardly a
way ; so I turned back, and this timo
swimming, 1 reached tho boat, now
nearly full of water; and half dragging,

waiting to devour us, or fold us In their
limy colls. Tho dripping water sound
ed hollow and echoing strange whispers
and cries seemed floating around; tho
niu-sols rustled together: and ever loud
er camo tho "lap, lap, lapping" of tho
water a.s it rushed in nnd dashed ngnlnst
tho sides and celling of the horriblo
nlaco,
l was now Clinging wun one naiiit to
tho boat's side, wlille witli the other I
held tightly by Hod.-on's collar; hut
though I waited llllthownvo receded be
foro I tried tho bottom, It was not to bo
touched ; so, shuddering and horror
stricken,!! waited tho coming wuvtymd
struck oll',swlmining with all my might.
It was only a minute's ta-k j hut when,
after twice trying, my feet touched tho
bottom, I was panting heavily, and so
nervous, that I bad to lean, tremblhi;
and shaking, again-t tho side. Hut I
had a tight hold of Hodson.who-o head
I managed to keen above water ; and
it was not until warned of my danger
by tho rising tide, and tho dilllculty I
found lu keeping my feet, that I again
cs-aved to press forward.
.lust then, something cold and wet
swept aero--; my face, and dashing out
my nrms to keep oil' somu monster of
the deep, my hands camo In contact
with a round body which heat iigalust
my brea-t, and lu my horror, as I dash
ed away, I was sotuepaceserotlio drag

my comrade to hi-fate. Thu next mo
ment however, hu was swept up to mo ;
and once more clutching his collar, and
keeping his head above water, I wndod
-lowly along the tunnel, when again I
nearly lu-t my hold, for thu snmu wot
slimy body swept acro-s my face but
raising my hand, I only da-hod away
ono of thu Jong strands ol bladder-weed
which hung thickly from the cross tim
ber- of the roof.
It wa- no hard matter to bear my
companion along'.wlth me.for I had not
only to keep his head up, his body Hunt
ing along tho surface, but my foothold
was uncertain, for now the bottom was
slimy, and my feet sunk in tho oozo
deeper and deeper, for I was Hearing tho
gates through which tho fresh water
of tho marshes was let In j and though
thu water was now only to my middle,
I mado my way with dilllculty, for
thero was a perceptible current against
mo.

It not been for my excitement nml now
a horrid dread seemed to check the
very net, for nil nt oiico I heard a heavy
reverberating noiso, and Iho thought
struck inu that they weru opening tho
gates, ami in another instant tho fearful
rii-u of fresh water would come bearing
nil before it, oven our lives.
In' tho ngoiiy of tho moment, I uttered
n wild unearthly shriek, so fearful a

wards, nml clung to a blliny po-t, trem
bling to hear thu btrangu whispering
cehocs, as tho cry reverberated nlong
thu place, and mingled with tho hipping
rush of thu water, tho dripping from
thu roof, and u loud sound ns of u little
waterfall lu front.
Now camo ngalii thu shape, of some
thing round swimming up against me,
and ns it struck my side, I beat at It
savagely, though I smiled at my foolish
tho oozu nt the bottom grow softer j M) I
stopped, listening to tho heavy rushing
of water lu front, where thu dralnago
escaped, and washed heavily down,
deepening the tunnel at the foot of tho
doors; while in that hollow cavernous
place, growing smaller moment by mo
ment, the rushing sound wiis something
hideous. Danger lu front, for thu great
gates might at any tlmo boopencd; and
danger behind, whero tho tldo was
coining in ceaselessly, and deepening
thu wntcr around mo with Its regular
beating throb, mlnuto by minute.
Thoughts of tho past und present
seemed to surgo through my brain, so
that I grew bewildered, and had any
chanco of e-capo presented Itself, I could
not have seized It, though I could not
but tell myself that escape, wns Impos
sible. A few minute, ton, twenty,
thirty perhaps, and tho black darkness
seemed to bo grqwlng blacker.
" I must bo free," I muttered; and
dragging Hudson's handkerchief from
his neck, I bound it to my own, and
then making them fast beneath his
anus, felt among tho woodwork till I
could find a place whero 1 could pass
them through, so that I could secure
him from slipping down, or being swept
away by tho ebbing nml flowing of tho
wntcr.
I wns not long lu finding a place; but
then the handkerchiefs were not long
enough, and I hud to add ono from my
pocket; then I left thopoorfellowqulto
and half-hanging from one of the tim
bers. And now I waded about, search
ing for the mouth of tho alr-plpo, in
tho bopo of shouting up It for succor,
since I felt convinced that tho- tide
would elfectually fill tho tuimel, whllo
the very thought of tho gates being
opened half maddened me; and heed
less now of who might hear ine, so that
they brought succor, I hunted almlos-ly
about, a oiling and shrieking for aid.
It was a fearful struggle between rea
son and dread ; and forover dread kept
getting the upper hand ; now it was a
floating keg again and again making
mo dash away ; now ono of tho pack
ages burled In by the tide while tho
strango drippings and hollow whis per'
Ings were magnified into an infinity of
horrors. Every monster with which
imagination has peopled tho sen bccmod
to ho there to attack mo, strange serpent
or Hzard-liko beasts, slimy and scaled,
thronging along tho ceiling or up tho
sides, swimming around me, or burrow
ing through tho sand. Moro than once
I actually touched some swimming ob
Joet, but tho contact was momentary,
nnd tho stranger darted oil. Then rea
son would gain supremacy for awhilo
and trying to cool my throbbing brow
with tho water, I thought ,of my posi
tion, whispered a few prayers, and en
deavored to compose myself. Thero
was even now a doubt : tho tldo might
not rl-e high enough to cover mo; cer
tainly it was now nt my breast, and I
wns standing witli dilllculty in tho
shallowest placo I could pick. Tho next
moment, us tho waves receded, It would
fall to my waist ; but again It was up
to my chest, nnd in snitu of glomus of
hope, despair whispered truly that it
was now higher up my chest than be
fore. True; but ono wave In so many
always camo higher than the others,
Thd tldo might still be nt Its height, and
this bo that particular wave.
Down nguin nearly to my waist ; nnd
then up, up, up, nearly to my chin,
(la-hing away lionu and reason. Hut
stay, another gleam: 1 was standing
upon the soft mud, for hero thero was
no sand : my feet must have sunk In
I moved again and again, hut over
witli tho sanio result ; and at last, des
iralrlngly, I wascllnging to a shell-covered
piece of timber at thu side, with
tho water at my chin
A noise, a clanking noiseas of chains
rattling ami iron striking iron; and
now hone lied, for I knew that this
must bo tho opening of the doors of the
gowt; but to my surprise, no rush of
water followed; only u littlo came,
which lapped again-t my lips, whllo a
rush of nlrsmoto my forehead
Voices, shouts, and Hod-on's nanio
uttered ; but I could not shout in reply,
Then my own nanio ; und I gavo somo
Inarticulate ery by way nf answer.
whlluoncu more rea-on seemed to get
the better of tho dread, for 1 knew that
tho far doors of tlie gowt had not been
oneneil, and that they kept up tho drain
ago whllo tho pair nearest to mo had
only hud thu pressure upon them of tho
wntcr escaping from tho tlrst. And new
n coed bold swim, and I could havu
been In the big pit-like opening between
thu two pair of gates; but thu spirit
was gone, the nervo was absent, and
still clinging to the bhelly piece of tim
ber, I closed my eyes, for 1 felt that,
near as rescue seemed, I could do noth
ing to aid it. As for Ilodson, in tills
tlmo of dread, 1 had forgotten him, for
gotten all but tho great horror of tlie
water hip, lap, lapping ut my Up, and
occasionally receding, Its fizzing spray
In my nostrils.
Higher and higher, covering my Hp;
but by a despcratu effort I raised my
self a few Inches, but only to go through
thu snmo agonies again, as tho water
still crept up and up, slowly but surely,
whllo in tills my last ttrugglo iny head
touched tho ton tlnibers, tho weed
wa-hed and swept over It, and ns 1
forced my lingers round thu timbers to
which 1 clung, my body lloated in the,
WUiwi'llnr minute, and I felt that all
was over, for tho water covered my faco
once, twice; and half strangled, I wait
ed gasping for tho third tlmo; but It
camo not. Half a mlnuto passed, and
then again It wa-hed over my face,
seeming ns If It would never lenvo It ;
but at lust it was gone, and too un
nerved to hope, 1 awaited Its return,
but It camo not. .
1 dared not hope yet, till I felt that
tho water wns perceptibly lower, and
then the reaction was so fearful that 1
could hardly retain my hold till tho
tide had sunk so that, oiico moro i couiu
