I wired and cabled everywhere I could, but I could find out nothing." " A correspondent," said Peter Tounley. " I don't know if you have met him. His name is Coleman. He found us." " Coleman ?

But if he should tell him what had befallen them, and where they lived now, he might put off going to see them, and he was certain that Miss Coleman, at least, must want very much to see Mr. Evans.

" Say, old man, introduce me, won't you ? I'm crazy to know her." "Do you mean Miss Black?" asked Coleman. " Why, I don't know that I have a right. Of course, you know, she hasn't been meeting anybody aboard. I'll ask her, though- certainly." " Thanks, old man, thanks. I'd be tickled to death. Come along and have a drink. When will you ask her?
