ADVENTURES IN 
COMRADESHIP 
(Continued from page 170) 
white line of breakers far out across the 
cut had mounted to imposing hills of 
green and dusky grey, and the channel 
was running like a mill-race. Even un¬ 
der the most favorable circumstances 
it was no child's-play to pilot a boat 
through this-tortuous passage, with its 
constant menace of sand bars and jagged 
“patches.” We would be compelled to 
spend the night on Soldier Key! 
The Captain stopped his job of clean¬ 
ing fish long enough to see that the 
“Lucretia” was in safe and snug berth, 
whatever might take place. Then he 
found an open window in the caretaker's 
house, and we knew that we had safe 
shelter, although there were few or no 
comforts in the deserted house. 
I T was almost sundown when Sonny- 
boy sighted a boat to seaward of the 
island. She was a good-sized power- 
craft, battered unmercifully by the heavy 
seas and the impact of the constantly 
rising wind. 
Cap’n Jim’s keen eyes took her in, as 
he lifted from the pan of fish he was 
cooking in the shelter of an old out¬ 
house. “Th’ fools !” he growled, “they'll 
go on a bar certain sure ! Tryin’ to get 
in, but they’re nowheres near either 'bf 
the channels. No Miami boatman on 
THAT launch!” 
Despite his predictions, the newcomer 
approached to within fifty feet of the 
dock, and then keeling over, went 
aground, hard and fast—so much so, that 
not even tide and wind could give her 
much motion. We all ran down to the 
dock. 
Even at this distance, we made out 
that there were three men aboard, all 
frightened. Every available inch of 
space was taken up by sailfish. There 
must have been nine or ten of them— 
immense fellows. 
Cap’n Jim’s face hardened. He had 
visioned one of his pet hates: The 
Wasters — the Fish Spendthrifts — the 
Poor Sportsmen ! And Sonnyboy was in 
line for the best lesson of his young 
career. 
“I’d like to see them come to within 
an inch of drowning,” he ejaculated, 
“just what I was tellin’ you of—sailfish 
pirates. Catchin’ as many as they can. 
just to get their names in the papers, and 
to be photographed against a rack on th 
Miami pier! We’ll let ’em dance for a 
while!” 
This, however, was neither humane 
nor the Captain’s true self, and he soon 
went out after them in the rowboat; 
handling it nicely. He brought back two 
of the men and returned for the other— 
and a sorry sight they were!
