"I'll wager ten to one, this Lihoa is one of the greedy Chinamen who isgoing to sail on the 'St. George', " said Mr. Black. "Let's go down tothe office of the Chief of Police, and, if my conjecture is true, we'llfind the people we want on board the 'St. George'--'kill two birds withone stone', as the old saying has it. Be quick, Father, get your hatand walking stick and come with me. We haven't a moment to lose. " The two men hurried down to the harbor. The Chief of Police receivedthem in a fri...endly manner, but when they laid their case before him, heshrugged his shoulders and said: "I am very sorry, indeed. You havecome just eight hours too late. The 'St. George' sailed this morningat two with the tide and a favorable wind. " "What is to be done?" questioned the Father. "We will send your papers to Melbourne and Sidney and have the Captainand Lihoa arrested when they put into port. That is all that can bedone, " answered the Chief. Matters had to be left thus. Mr. Black returned to his office to makeout the necessary documents, and Father Somazzo to the College tocommend both boys to God and his ministering angels.
