The key which the captain of the Forward alone possessed, the dog sent by him, and who came thus to verify his identity, that commanding accent which it was impossible to mistake all this acted strongly on the minds of the sailors, and was sufficient to establish Garry's authority.
"Besides," replied Bolton, who took Garry's part because he liked his character, "Richard Shandon isn't master on board; he obeys, like us." "Who is master if he isn't?" "The captain." "Always that unfortunate captain!" exclaimed Pen. "Don't you see that on these ice-banks there's no more a captain than there is a public? It's a polite way of refusing us what we've a right to claim."
I haven't told her everything. I tried to, but I couldn't." "Tell her now, Garry," cried Jack. "Now to-night," his voice rising on the last word. "Before you close your eyes. You never needed her help as you do now." "I can't it would break her heart. Keep still! that's her step." Corinne entered the room slowly and walked to Garry's chair.
It was the only kind way." "Almost," said Kenny, "I did not remember to lie in time. Truth is a thing I cannot understand." The sympathy in Garry's eyes unnerved him. "Garry," he flamed, "why did I practice the telling of truth to end now with a lie? Why did Joan plead for a year to learn to be my wife and learn in it not to be?" "God knows!" said Garry gently.
"He tried to force his way up into Garry's room but I held him back. He is coming again with some one of the church trustees. Garry had a bad turn in New York and we came home by the noon train, and I have made him lie down and sent for the doctor. McGowan must not see him; it will kill him if he does. Don't leave us, Jack!" "But how dare he come here and try to force his " "He will dare.
It'll serve him right; he's just that mean sort, you know. Oh, I'll just marry 'em, along toward the end of the last chapter, and that'll kind of close it up." Stephen O'Mara had been watching Joe's face while the latter talked, and therefore he was no more prepared than was Joe himself for the burst of harsh laughter that came from Garry's lips.
The door opened and Jack's aunt swept in. She never walked, or ambled, or stepped jauntily, or firmly, or as if she wanted to get anywhere in particular; she SWEPT in, her skirts following meekly behind half a yard behind, sometimes. Corinne launched the inquiry at her mother, even before she could return Garry's handshake. "Who's Miss Grayson, mamma?" "I don't know. Why, my child?"
"We took the early train for New York, and I waited until my stepfather was in his office and went into his private room. It was Garry's last hope. He thought Mr. Breen would listen to me on account of mother. I told him of our dreadful situation; how Garry must have ten thousand dollars, and must have it in twenty-four hours, to save us all from ruin.
There was a challenge in Garry's voice which too closely resembled a snarl. "Why no." The pre-occupied note was uppermost in his answer. "I'd not mind at all." But he offered no more than that. "Nor the reason why you've been so insistent that I stay on up here?" "Why not? I've not forgotten my manners, even though I've lived some months in the back-brush!"
Dick sped away to do Garry's bidding, and in a few moments was back, and the three chums started for the boundary line. This time they were able to proceed directly to it, without wasting precious time hunting for it. Arriving at the marker, they branched out fanshaped as was their wont when they were in search of a trail or water.
