Faster and faster they were whirled along, the boat tossing like a nut-shell upon the waves. The children sat still, although frightened almost to death. "Fani, we are Los! who can help us?" screamed Emma. "Let us say our prayers. I have forgotten to say them ever since I came to Rosemount. I promised mamma not to forget; but I did.
