Don't ever show yourself again, or you'll answer to me." Bothwell slunk off through the thicket while Jack and the decky helped Evelyn up the hill to the place where Gallagher was guarding a day's digging of treasure. They found Gallagher, stunned by a blow on the back of the head, lying prone beside the treasure box-which was empty. In the cover of the box they found a scrap of paper upon which was written in Bothwell's hand, "Of all the chicken hearted saps-" at this point the writer bad evidently noted the approach of Jack and Evelyn and left the sarcastic note unfinished. "I guess he's right about me being a sap," admitted Jack, as he helped Gallagher to the dory, "Bothwell has beaten me to it again!" They soon climbed aboard the Argos, Evelyn and Jack making their way to the treasure room. A violent shouting above board caused Jack to spring up the ladder. As soon as he had gone, the captured Malay and a brother of his own breed sneaked down the ladder with gloating eyes on the gold. Evelyn picked up a club and swung at them wildly. The Malay yelped with pain as they scurried up the ladder, Evelyn following. A fight was in progress on the forward deck between Bothwell's men and the crew of the Argos. And - horrors!Evelyn looked up and saw Jack and Boris battling in the shrouds! The figures fought furiously toward the end of the stick. She saw them sway periously. Then they lost their balance and fell toward the deck. Evelyn screamed and covered her eyes.

Sure enough, it was Bothwell! From behind a tree Jack saw Bothwell and one of his grizzled henchmen holding Gallagher down and prodding him with clubs. "Are you coming with us or not?" demanded Bothwell. 1 "I am not!" replied Gallagher. "Don't be a fool!" said Bothwell, "We'll split the treasure three ways." "What about your crew?" "They can go to the devil! Now have some sense, Gallagher. Come with us and you're a rich man. Refuse-and you're a DEAD man." "Then I'm a dead man," answered Gallagher, "Shoot!" Jack Sedgewick sprang from behind the tree and levelled Bothwell's henchman with a single blow. Bothwell picked up an axe and swung at Jack, who dodged. Jack grabbed up the mate•to Bothwell's axe and faced him. "Bothwell," he said calmly, "You may be the superior swordsman, but I used to swing an axe in the North Woods. Nothing but a miracle can stop me from killing you. Come on!" Bothwell fought like a tiger but he · was plainly Jack's inferior with the woodsman's weapon. Gradually he weakened before Jack's furious onslaught. Bothwell sunk to his knees. Jack raised his axe on high. Then the "miracle" happened. One of Bothwell's own men, a brown man, leaped from the underbrush, " The crew go devil, eh! That's what? Then YOU go devil!" The gun barked twice, both bullets penetrating Bothwell's back, and the twentieth century pirate slowly sank into his last sleep. As Evelyn and Jack, burdened with treasure, made tl:).eir way to the ship, he glanced back at the scene of the struggle and said, "Whew!
