Charley has reached safely the last step when they come face to face with the pirate, who, considering it time for depositing his captives, has started to put that part of his plans into execution. Instantly Charley is covered with a gun, and by sheer force of numbers and muscle, releaved of his precious jewel.

And the next in-stanthe finds himself on the land, still under the nozzle of a gun. where he is joined by the party. Also, immediately he hears Unsound of the departing ship. Misery, woe, despair, like piercing swords sink into his soul. He hears nothing; he sees nothing; the night air fans his cheek, he heeds it not; the moon slowly rises, he knows it not.
