fright, Jim leaped backward. Handa
lurched limpingly after him as the

Jim elimbed hand ever hand up to
the cross trees, while Hands lurched

it in hie mouth and began laboriously
to climb up into the mizzen shrouds.
Jim hurriedly reloaded and primed
th. pistols as Handa slowly ascended
the mast. He sueebeded at la.t and
aimed them at the pirate.
“One more step, Mr. Hands, and
I’ll blew year brans out! Deadmen
don’t bite, you know."
Hands hesitated, smiled disarm-
ingly as he took the dagger from his
mouth. "Jim, I reckon you and me

THE FIGHT ON THE MAST
As Jim began paddling out to-
wards the spithead, beyond which he
could see the light* of the Hispaniola,
.the drunken voices of the pirates
ashore, raised in the words of “Fif-
teen men on a dead man’s chest",
came to his ear*. That meant only a
few men were aboard the ship and
probably no lookout was kept. As
he-approached the ship,’he paddled
very quietly. Once in the shdow of
its aide, he listened to the voices that
floated down to him.
"Gp on! Make your play! ” Jim
recognised the snarling and drunken
voice a* that of Israel Hands.
It was the voice of William
O’Brien which replied: "Let's talk.
8ilver‘s tangled everything, I tell
you!”
“Stow your drunken gaff and
play.”
