The three of them went forward, but I heard the first man tell the boatswain that the way to see the stranger that had come aboard was not by showing a hght. ' What's the meaning of it ? ' said Mrs. Burke. The captain rose in silence and walked the deck, going somewhat towards the gangway, and staring forward and around.

' Was it a strange man they saw ? ' I asked. 'If so, how did he come into the ship ? ' and I own a chill ran through me as I asked the question.
