The voyage is doomed to disaster and death. I know Mr. Pike, now, and if ever he discovers the identity of Mr. Mellaire, murder will be done. Mr. Mellaire is not Mr. Mellaire. He is not from Georgia. He is from Virginia. His name is Waltham--Sidney Waltham. He is one of the Walthams of Virginia, a black sheep, true, but a Waltham. Of this I am convinced, just as utterly as I am convinced that Mr. Pike will kill him if he learns who he is. 

Let me tell how I have discovered all this. It was last night, shortly before midnight, when I came up on the poop to enjoy a whiff of the south- east trades in which we are now bowling along, close-hauled in order to weather Cape San Roque. Mr. Pike had the watch, and I paced up and down with him while he told me old pages of his life. He has often done this, when not "sea-grouched," and often he has mentioned with pride--yes, with reverence--a master with whom he sailed five years. "Old Captain Somers," he called him--"the finest, squarest, noblest man I ever sailed under, sir." 

Well, last night our talk turned on lugubrious subjects, and Mr. Pike, wicked old man that he is, descanted on the wickedness of the world and on the wickedness of the man who had murdered Captain Somers. 

"He was an old man, over seventy years old," Mr. Pike went on. "And they say he'd got a touch of palsy--I hadn't seen him for years. You see, I'd had to clear out from the coast because of trouble. And that devil of a second mate caught him in bed late at night and beat him to death. It was terrible. They told me about it. Right in San Francisco, on board the _Jason Harrison_, it happened, eleven years ago.  1. Is the voyage doomed?

THE SPRINGTIME OF LIFE 

"A fight! a fight!" came from the crowd, and soon Tom and Koswell were surrounded by a number of students and some outsiders. 

The blow from the bully angered Tom greatly, and skating forward he made a pass at Koswell. But the latter ducked, and then came back at Tom with a blow that sent the fun-loving Rover into several students standing by. 

"Say, Rover, look out, or Jerry Koswell will eat you up!" said one of the seniors. 

"Koswell is a good scrapper," came from another. 

"I gave him one lesson and I can give him another," answered Tom. "There, take that!" 

He turned swiftly and rushed at Koswell. One blow after another was delivered with telling accuracy, and Koswell went flat on his back on the ice. When he got up his nose was bleeding. 

"I'll fix you!" he roared. "Come on to shore and take off your skates!" 

"I'm willing," answered Tom recklessly. He knew fighting was against the rules of the college, but he was not going to cry quits. 

The pair moved toward the shore, the crowd still surrounding them. They soon had their skates off. 

"Now, Jerry, do him up brown!" came from Larkspur, who was present. 

"Give him the thrashing of his life!" added Flockley, who had come up. 

"He has got to spell able first, and he doesn't know the alphabet well enough to do it!" answered Tom.
