tell you; gold in immense quantities!
Gold!"
His bloodshot eyes peered from one
to the other with levc4risit excitement,
And his hanging under lip trembled
as if ho had been etruck by palsy.
Flelleing and Mannering looked. at
each other signifietintly. The glance
said, "He is mad!"
"In immense quantities! It lies,
most of it, on the surface, in what
the miners call 'placers.' It is quite
,easy to get. It is, I verily believe,
an island of gold. And it is our%

aires, as the phrase goes. it is in-
.eorrect, but no matter, the gold is
there!, How hot it, is" He drew his
trembling hand across his wet brew
and sank, almost collapsed, on to
the table.
Nina went to him and laid a sooth-
ing hand on his ehoujder,
"You are tired, father; you must
ret, be quiet--"
"Rest! NOnsensel You-yeu. talk
like a child! You don't understand,
Nina! I tell you it is gold! I can-
not have made a. Mistake. We have

for you we should never have reached

dbeerf in the stin-water-water!"
He was gasping for breath, his
1a0° was livid and • his features
twitching.
Mannoring ran out of the hut and
brought some water., and a draught
somewhat restored the old man.
”Go, now," said Nina in a low
1:voice. "I will get him to lie down
:.and sleep. Ho will be better in the
onorning."
She extended her hand to Manner-
eingeand, as he took it, sho murmur-
, ed:
"Good night -and thank you!"

Mannering shrugged • his broad
eihoulders.
"I don't know. There may be.
.Gold is found, in all sorts of places.'
But it would have been mot) to the
-point if the Doctor had discovered a
banana tree, a boot tree or a coat
;tree. What is the use of gold to us?
You can't make even a decent crock
,out of it.
' Fleming coughed violently.
"That is true. Mannering, what a
lesson to some of us who spend our
lives amassing useless wealth!• I
wish that some .of our millionaires
eetild be here to learn that lesson!"
His 'does reflection, was broken by
the cough which shook him from top

"Turn in, andget some sleep," said
Mannering.
",Una you? You, too, will et
some sleep to -night, Mannering?"
"Yes; oh, yes! But look round
first."
Fleming entered their het and
'dropped into the rough bed, ex-
hausted by the •physical and mental
strain; but Mannering, as soon as he

without a word, went up the beech.

life and its exigencies by Fleming,
who, crawling up weakly, said:
"is there a spade, Maimering?"
Mannering made a mute assent,
found the spade, and the two men
dug the grave. They went up to the
hut and carried the dead man down.

Then, still with bent head, she went
