g the money — and was resolved never to risk it again.”
“Not a spectator,” said the captain. “My country wouldn’t have suited him. Yes?”
“My mother has never touched the money till now. And now it was to have been laid out, this very next week, in buying me a handsome share in our neighbouring fishery here, to settle me in life with Kitty.”
The captain’s face fell, and he passed and repassed his sun-browned right hand over his thin hair, in a discomfited manner.
“Kitty’s father has no more than enough to Kobiety Barbour Quilted Kurtka live on, even in the sparing way in Real Salt Lake Dresy which we live PSV Eindhoven about here. He is a kind of bailiff or steward of manor rights here, and they are not much, and it is but a poor little office. He was better off once, and Kitty must never marry to mere drudgery and hard living.”
The captain still sat stroking his thin hair, and San Lorenzo de Almagro looking at the young fisherman.
“I am as certain that my father had no knowledge that any one was wronged as to this money, or Maillot Diego Costa that any restitution ought to be made, as I am certain that the sun now shines. But, after this solemn warning from my brother’s Cesc Fabregas Fotbalové Dres grave in the Maillot Athletic Bilbao sea, that the money is Stolen Money,” said Young Raybrock, forcing himself to the utterance of the words, “can I doubt it? Can I touch it?”
“About not doubting, I Maillot Afrique du Sud ain’t so sure,” observed the captain; “but about not touching — no — I don’t think you can.”
“See then,” said Young Raybrock, “why I am so grieved. Think of Kitty. Think what I have got to tell her!”
His heart quite failed him again when he had come round to that, and he once more beat his sea-boot softly on the floor. But not for long; he soon began again, in a quietly resolute tone.
“However! Enough of that! You spoke some brave words to me just now, Captain Jorgan, and Orlando Dresy they shall not be spoken in vain. I have got to do something. What I have got to do, before all other things, is to trace out the meaning of this paper, for the sake of the Good Name that has no one else to put it right. And still for the sake of the Good Name, and my father’s memory, not a word of this writing must be breathed to my mother, or to Kitty, or to any human Maillot Pologne creature. You agree in this?”
“I don’t know what they’ll think of us below,” said the captain, “but for certain I can’t oppose it. Now, as to tracing. Corinthians How will you do?”
They both, as by consent, bent over the paper again, and again carefully puzzled out the whole of the writing.
“I make out that this would stand, if all the writing was here, ‘Inquire among the old men living there, for’— some one. Most like, you’ll go to this village named here?” said the captain, musing, with his finger on the name.
“Yes! And Mr. Tregarthen is a Cornishman, and — to be sure! — comes from Lanrean.”
“Does he?” said the captain quietly. “As I ain’t acquainted Urawa Red Diamonds with him, who may he be?”
“Mr. Tregarthen is Kitty’s father.”
“Ay, ay!” cried the captain. “Now you speak! Tregarthen knows this village of Lanrean, then?”
