Since he was no longer an A B., young Matt concluded he might as well accord himself the respect due him as a ship's officer; so he tacked on the Mister, just to show the Old Man he knew his place. The master noted that; also, the slurring of the sir as only a sailor can slur it. "I shouldn't wonder if you'd do," he remarked as Matt passed him on his way to the forecastle for his dunnage.

"Go on, I don't fear you; remember that," said Ellis quietly; and then hurried on, in the hopes of assisting Ernest to drive the ball on to the goal. The keen eye of Monsieur Malin, who was the master on duty on that afternoon, had observed this little piece of by-play. He noted it, but said nothing at the time.

As he approached the islet he noted with great satisfaction that, so far as he could then see, the place was admirably adapted for the head- quarters of the little party so long as it might be necessary for them to remain in their island prison.
