Suddenly Wilbur raised his voice is a great shout;

"Cowardly, superstitious rats, I should have expected this. They would be chopped iu bits before they would stay longer on board this boat—they and their Feng shui."

When morning came the deserters could be made out camped on the •bore, near to the beached dory. What tbeir intentions were could not be con­jectured.
