CHAPTER I.
—Continued.
As the sun rose higher m the clear blue sky and spread his warm rays along the coast, something which - had been^ attached to a piece of wreckage, which had been tossed clear of the hungry sea, moved. One end of it rose from the sand, and the object assumed the form of » W, almost naked. |He slowly and painfully dragged ' hnnselt ■ alone the ground until reaching tha shade of a thorny bush (which had successfully sfcrUgKled for its life amid the heaped-up 'sand); where he threw himself down with a bitter groan, and lapsed once, more into insensitoihty. The man was Harry West, once second mate, and now the sole survivor from the Wrecked vessel, and that is how our hero became- cast away on Eraser Island.
