friendship, even if he desired mine, as I am sure he does not."

Captain Evans was puzzled by this explanation, which threw very little

light upon the subject, and made no further efforts to bring the two

together.

Time passed, and whatever might be Ben Haley's feelings, he abstained

from any attempt to injure him. Robert's suspicions were lulled to

sleep, and he ceased to be as vigilant and watchful as he had been.

His frank, familiar manner made him a favorite on shipboard. He had a

friendly word for all the sailors, which was appreciated, for it was

known that he was the _prot�g�_ of the owner. He was supposed by some to

be a relation, or, at any rate, a near connection, and so was treated

with unusual respect. All the sailors had a kind word for him, and many

were the praises which he received in the forecastle.

Among those most devoted to him was a boy of fourteen, Frank Price, who

had sailed in the capacity of cabin-boy. The poor boy was very seasick

at first, and Captain Evans had been indulgent, and excused him from

duty until he got better. He was not sturdy enough for the life upon

which he had entered, and would gladly have found himself again in the

comfortable home which a mistaken impulse had led him to exchange for

the sea.

With this boy, Robert, who was of about the same age, struck up a

friendship, which was returned twofold by Frank, whose heart, naturally

warm, was easily won by kindness.
