You are Miss Joan Leland? Yes? Why? Paul asked flatly. The bartender broke into Spanish. There was a torrent of words and gestures. What does he say? Joan asked. seems there was a man looking for you here. An American. He gave him ten pesos to get some information about you. He doesnt know what his name was though. It Karl?" Not a chance. Karl wouldnt be apt to row all the way to shore. And the ship isnt in sight Ive been watching to see. But who in the world could it have been? The bartender, feet on the bar, had returned to his siesta. What a country I Thomas muttered. If someone wanted Joan, why didnt they telephone the hotel? Were all registered under our own names. This is what is Paul laughed. known as the subtle approach. Paul! Be serious! Joan insisted. Paul said, leaning forOkay, ward and surveying her with his kind brown eyes. Its probably one of Karls men. They want to get the idea across that theyre around, and this is their way of doing it They may want to make further contact with you. I dont know.

Dont worry, honey. Ill do all I can. Maybe Karl has. some Mexicans working for him, Thomas suggested. I dont think so. Besides, this man spoke English, and if he had been able to speak Spanish he certainly would have done so, because the bartender was barely able to understand him. So now we start waiting all over again? Thomas asked. Thats about it. Lets go, she She shivered. urged. They visited the cathedral, the park, and finally took in a movie. They walked leisurely back to the hotel. Dinner was never served until nine oclock. As they turned on to the long avendia which bordered the sea, one of the few automobiles they had seen turned the comer sharply. That man! Joan cried. I have the strangest feeling I know him! I couldnt see him very well, but Im sure of it. Maybe its the man who was tryThoming to get in touch with you, as said. Maybe its one of Karla men that you used to see around the club in San Francisco.

She had locked and bolted it but it rattled in the wind. when a She was almost asleep was sound disturbed her. Someone She sat door. her at tapping gently four-post- dr at up to bed She who up in bed. Whos there? she demanded. No one replied. She drew on the colorful Mexican robe and slippers she had bought and tiptoed to the door. Whos there? she repeated. Thomas voice came to her. Its me, miss. Ive something to tell you. Quickly she unbolted the door and snapped on the light. Whats the trouble? she asked, annoyed. Why dont you tell Mr. OMalley whatever it is? I cant, Thomas whispered, looking over his shoulder. "Ive found a way to get out of here. Joan eyed him coldly. Have you been drinking? Only a few," Thomas insisted. "Listen, Miss Leland, I met a man tonight who will take us back to the States. Hes an American and hes flying back home tomorrow. He has his own plane and when I told him we were stranded You shouldnt have done that! Maybe not, but Im scared, Miss Leland. This guy is okay so I took a chance. He was swell about It. Said hed be glad to help us. I told him I thought youd be willing to go too and he wants to see you. Hes downstairs right now. Paul will never consent to leave," Joan said slowly, and I cant leave him. I dont blame you, Thomas, but you know Mr. OMalley said it wasnt safe. However, if you want to go, I suppose its all right. Now look. Miss Leland, Thomas begged. At least go down and talk to this man. Hes waiting for you. After all, hes been pretty decent about this whole thing. If you dont see him, hell think theres something phony about it and he wont even take me. Joan considered for a minute. All right, for your sake Ill see him. But Im not going to leave. No one can persuade me. Thomas said hurriedly. Okay, Just back me up on my story. Thats all I ask. He departed and Joan dressed quickly, thinking how strange it was that now that she had a chance to escape she could not take it It was impossible to consider leaving Paul. Even so, she could not blame Thomas. And if corroborating his story would help, she would be After all, he had glad to do given them all the aid possible on the ship.

Joan! This is a surprise! Arthur Mulford said. It is to me, she admitted. I heard you were here. I even went so far as to ask the bartender for information about you, but didnt connect you with Thomas. "Possible. Now tell me, what Is this all about? They both sat down In the deep I suppose Thomas leather chairs. has explained the situation? Thomas was standing on the veranda smoking a cigarette, apparently preferring to let Joan do the talking.
