"See if the rain is letting up." The colored man went out and presently reported that the worst of the storm seemed over. "Then we will start," said Jack. "Now, Dr. Mackey, if you try to escape, I will order Old Ben to fire at you." "You are very hard on your father." "If you call me your son again, I will knock you down where you stand."
Mackey turned away to consult with the guerrillas, and Jack and his companions were left to themselves for the best part of half an hour. The surgeon was evidently much disturbed over something, and Jack caught the words, "must leave the country," and "I will send the money," spoken to the guerrilla captain. "Can it be possible that he intends to leave the States?" mused our hero.
He had met the doctor at the Oldville tavern the evening before, and bowed stiffly. "I am sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Ruthven," said the doctor; "but I am curious to visit the old wreck on Hemlock Bluff rocks. Perhaps this man has another boat " "Oh, it doesn't matter, Dr. Mackey," answered St. John. "You are evidently a cousin to Miss Marion Ruthven." "I am."
As we advance north we find this phenomenon ever increasing; for instance in Fernando Po; but the Mpongwe limits the change to verbs. Another distinguishing point of these three Gaboon tongues, as the Rev. Mr. Mackey observes, is "the surprizing flexibility of the verb, the almost endless variety of parts regularly derived from a single root.
It is concerning Jack." "What of your brother?" "Oh, Harry, he is just like a brother to me, and mamma thinks of him as her son! Now a stranger has appeared on the scene, and he wants to take Jack away from us." "A stranger. Who?" "A Confederate surgeon named Dr. Mackey. He claims that he is Jack's father." "But is he?" "We do not believe that he is. But he says he can prove it."
When Mazzini died he indicated to Albert Pike a possible successor in Adriano Lemmi, who became in due course the chief of the Executive Department, and when in the fulness of years the pontiff of Luciferian Freemasonry himself passed on to the higher life of fire, which is the Palladian notion of beatitude, and in the peace and joy of Lucifer, the sovereign pontificate itself, after resting for a short period upon incompetent shoulders in the person of Albert George Mackey, was transferred to the Italian; the seat of the Dogmatic Directory was removed to Rome; a split in the camp ensued, inspired by a lady initiate, since famous under the name of Diana Vaughan, and to this we owe most of the revelations.
Mackey lay down a old french fort, I could See no traces of a Settlement of any Kind, in this plain I discovered a Kind of Grass resembling Timothey which appeared well calculated for Hay, this Plain is verry extensive in the evening I walked on the S. S. to see if any timber was Convt. to make Oars, which we were much in want of, I found Som indifferent timber and Struck the river above the Boat at a bad Sand bar the worst I had Seen which the boat must pass or Drop back Several Miles & Stem a Swift Current on the opsd Side of an Isd. the Boat however assended the middle of the Streem which was diffucult Dangerious We Came to above this place at Dark and Camped in a bad place, the misquitoes and Ticks are noumerous & bad.
"But why does he want the boy?" "That is the mystery if Jack is not really his son." "Perhaps there is a fortune coming to your brother, and the doctor wants to secure it. A man like Dr. Mackey wouldn't do a thing of this sort without an object. I can tell you one thing the fellow worships money." "What makes you think that?"
"You do!" cried the girl. "And what do you know of him? I would like to know very much." "Is he your friend?" asked George Walden cautiously. "No, I cannot say that he is." "Because, if he is your friend, I would rather not say anything further, Miss Ruthven. I do not wish to hurt your feelings." "Which means that what you have to say would be of no credit to Dr. Mackey?" "Exactly."
"I would like to know all about him. I will tell you why. You have noticed Jack, my brother?" "The lad who helped move me yesterday?" "Yes." "Of course a fine young fellow." "He is not my real brother. My parents adopted him about ten years ago." "Indeed." "Some time ago Dr. Mackey turned up here and claimed Jack as his son." "Impossible! Why, Dr. Mackey is a bachelor!" "You are sure of this?
