Bride explained that Phillips' idea w-as that he preferred to trust to the Carpathia than to send out a message accepting the help of a vessel v hich had been so much slower in responding, and thus, perhaps, lead the Carpathia to slunk she was not wanted. ' ' H e preferred to Iwng on to the certainty." Mr. Bride, in concluding his evidence, said that he saw the captain, who had not donned a life preserver, on file bridge unlil just before the Titanic ucnt down. The water had reached the bridge and the captain jumped into the sea. CAPTAIN SMITH'S LAST ORDER.

N e w Y o r k , April 20.The seriousness of the Senatorial investigation into the loss of the Titanic was disclosed yesterday evening, when Senator Smith at first flatly refused to permit any of the officers or- crew of the Titanic to sail on the Red Star liner Lapland despite the protests of M r .

Ismay urged that he should be allowed to go for the present, pleading that he was On the verge of a collapse, his request was not granted. Mr. Ismay, discussing the work of the investigating committee with interviewers to-day, described it as " brutaliy unfair." H e said : " t cannot understand this inquiry. They're going at it in a manner that seems unjust, and the injustice lies the heaviest upon me. " W h y , I cannot even protect myself by having tny counsel to ask questions.

Flags were half-mast high on the O l y m pic when she arrived at Plymouth on Saturday from New York, and general gloom prevailed on board, most o i the crew having lost near friends, i f not relatives. I t was just before eleven o'clock last Sunday, in fact, within twenty minutes o f the iceberg being siruck, that the Olympic heard her wounded sister's cry for help. I t d i d not reach Captain Haddock direct, as his ship was 500 miles distant. I t came to him through the Celtic, and then i n response a desperate etiort was made. A t a speed o f between twenty-three and twenty-lour knots, the Olympic rushed towards the Titanic for twelve or thirteen hours. A l l this while there was no serious alarm felt, the ship being thought to be unshakable, and then came the startling news from the Carpathia that she had arrived loo late, that tiie Titanic Had foundered, and that the survivors w-ere on board the Carpathia. The intelligence created a consternation, and as soon as possible on the Monday afternoon Captain Haddock dispatched a wireless message conveying the distressing news to New York. Lord Ashburton, the EbtI of Leitrim, Mr. Casimer-Perier, the H o n . Cyril Ward, Mr. E . Jackson, of Liverpool, and M r . Albert Wiggin, New York, were prominent workers of the committee, who raised nearly A'1,500 for the Titanic relief fund during the voyage. Yesterday the Olympic reached Southampton, having meanwhile crossed to Cherbourg, and the captain made an important statement concerning the dissemination last Monday o f false news concerning the 'Titanic's fate purporting to have been dispatched from the Olympic. CAPTAIN HADDOCK EXPLAINS.

hours before we picked up the Carpathia signals, and knew there was nothing more we could do. " A week before the disaster," continue;! Captain Haddock, " the Olympic steamed near the spot where the Titanic sank. We passed, in fact, over it, or a few miles noith. " We never saw a single particle of ice of any description, and the observations in the locality were so perfect that from the bridge of the Olympic we could see twenty mile-; on either side. " T h e r e was no sign of ice. The field ice must have travelled south \ery rapuilv, indeed, i have never known an icefield travel south so fast." Captain Haddock looks extremely i l l , worried and fagged. I l k pale cheeks and dark side whiskers make him, thonj;li a siwrr, ^pare lrwn, a con-picuous bgure. " Captain Smith had never had an accident with a ship rill the Hawke collided with the Oivmpic when he was in command," said another officer to me. ' ' H e was the calmest man I hnve ever known, and it we had heard the story ol his shooting himselfwhich he didn'twe should never have believed it for a moment. Standing on the lofty lop deck of the Olympic and looking down seventy-five feet at the water, it was possible lo-,day to realise the terrible condition of things on her sister ship last Sunday at midnight. The St. Louis and Majestic beside her in the dock looked like tugboats, and one could understand how i n the immense Saloons people sat unperturbed alter the shock o f the collision with the iceberg, which was hardly felt amidships.

THE

VIRGINIAN.

The Allan liner Virginian, which was at first erroneously reported to have been towing the i l l fated Titanic to Halifax, arrived at Liverpool yesterday morning. Captain Gambell, the commander of the vessel, relates how he got a message from Cape Race that the Titanic wanted assistance. He turned back, and got into wireless communi. cation with other vessels, which were also proceeding to the scene of the disaster. I t was only when he received a wireless intimation from the Carpathia that she had the Titanic's survivors on board and advising him to return to his usual track, that Captain Gambell resumed the voyage to Liverpool, which had been lengthened 169 miles, l i e marconied the Olympic, denying that he had picked up any survivors. He was at an utter los3 to explain from what source the statement that he was towing the Titanic emanated. SAIf.OHS" TIFFROAT PHIM,. The full details of the terrible end of tile f itanie were 'not communicated to the passengers, but everyone knew that she ban gone, i i t w n , and that many lives had been lost. W lien it seemed the Virginian might be needed the sailors of H . M . S . A'.gerine, who were returning from the China station.on board the liner, had orders to stand by the lifeboats. Beds and cots, too, were prepared for the recep. tion of any survivors who might be picked up in boats, A-ship's officer added that when the Virginian was first called upon by the Titanic the stokers worked like demons to get her to the scene of the disaster as soon as possible. The next thing was a message from the Carpathia. saving that all the Titanic's boats had been picked up. 1 be same officer stated that thev encountered an icefield w-luch w-as at least ntty miles long. They were four hours in passing i t . I t was the biugest field seen for years. NINE HOURS' RACE TO TITANIC.

( F r o m Our S p e c i a l C o r r e s p o n d e n t . ) S o u t h a m p t o n , A p r i l 21.Captain Haddock this afternoon, i n the presence of Mr. Curry, of the White Star Line, made the following very important statement to m e : " On the passage from Cherbourg to Southampton I received a letter from two newspaper correspondents requesting me to explain this message that had been published : AH Titanic passengers sale. Titanic proceeding slowly to Halifax under her own steam, which telegram caused a drop of twenty to sixty guineas in reinsurances at Lloyd's cn Monday afternoon. " I t was supposed that this message emanated from the ship, because it came through Renter, they saitl. " The correspondents asked me whether the message emanated from this ship, and, i f so, how it came to be sent if it was not true. " What I told them I now tell you. A message came to the Olympic from one of our oldest passengers, a lady, from New York, reading: "Arc a l l T i t a n i c passengers safo? " That message was received on board at 10.27 New York mean lime (about 3.25 Greenwich time). " A t another period of the dayI think it was earlierwe were in communication with another ship, the Asian, from which I tried to get inlormation about the Titanic. " She could give me very little indeed, but amongst the words used were these : " Towing' oil t a n k steamer to Halifax. " I have written to my owners: I have denied, i n the presence of our M a r . coni operators, that such a message as " A l l Titanic: passengers safe " was either received or sent from the Olympic. The only solution that I can offer for the Reuter message is the enclosed Marconigram, which may have been tapped in transmission, and word " are " missed out, which would make it read: " A l l Titanic passengers safe." The remaining words, " T i t a n i c making slowly for Halifax under her own steam," might be suggested by the Asian message, the copy of which is already in your possession. The message I received, probably from a constant White Star traveller, and I , on receipt of the message, made the same mistake, and left out the word " are," and telephoned the inquiry office to put up a notice reading, " A l l Titanic passengers safe," nothing more was added. We have been most carefully through every message from the ship. No copy of my error, plain or coded, or of the remainder of the message sent through Reuter was sent from the O l y m p i c H . J. H a d d o c k , master. " That is my explanation. When we picked up the Titanic message .asking for assistance we were 505 miles away from the Titanic. " We steamed hard towards her for fourteen

I n all the principal churches throughout the country yesterday touching and impressive tributes were paid to the memory of the noble dead. In many of the churches the ' Dead March " was played, and the congregations were visibly affected. A t the City Temple a hymn, specially written by A i r . H a l l Caine was sung, two o the verses being as follow : When Nature's unrelenting arm Sweeps us like withes away. " Maker of Man. be Thou O T strength U And our eternal stay.

Beneath the roll of soundless waves Our best and bravest he. Give us to feel their spirits live Immortal in the sky. The hymn was also sung in America. pi. O. Campbell Morgan, preaching at Westminster Chapel, referred i n particular to Captain Smith. "NOT AN ACT OF GOD." " I knew h i m , loved him, respected h i m , " he s,aid, and then broke off suddenly and referred to Mr. W . T . Stead, who for seven years had been a member of the congregation. Unknown to vetf many, M r . Stead had always worshipped with them when he had been in London. -. " This is not a Divine j u d g m e n t ; i t is not an act of G o d , " said D r . Morgan. They were face to face with the infinite mystery of the Divine government at such a time a l thlSj and were almost compelled to ask themselves why God had not interfered. -The Dean of Norwich, at Lincoln's I n n Chapel, said they must have i n their hearts a feeling of thankfulness to God that so many of their friends and countrymen were strengthened to meet that awful day as they would have wished them to meet it, and as a l l who would like to meet a like death, as Christian men and- women.

D u r i n g the service flags were half-masted as a, mark of respect to the memory of the officers and men o r a l ! ranks and ratings of the British mercantile marine and others who were drowned.

" Though our hearts may be bowed down w i t h deepest grief, we are cheered by the magnificent behaviour o f those gallant fellows whose heroic conduct is worthy of the best traditions of o"Ur service, and whose devotion to duty makes this black page i n our nation's history a page o f radiant l i g h t .

S o u t h a m p t o n , A p r i l 21.More than 2,000 cj> sons were in the church of S t Mary's, Southampj ton, yesterday, where the Bishop of Winchester preached at the memorial service. Nearly halt of them were in deep mourning; for lost relatives. L o r d \V' chester attended as L o r d Lie.utenant of Hampshire, while about 300 officers and men of the White Star and American Lines also attended. Women wept softly, and many held their handkerchiefs to their hp's throughout the service to stifle sobs they could not check. Mrs. Smith, widow of the captain of the Titanic, was present in a corner beside the chancel heavily veiled. . D r . Talbot, the aged Bishop of Winchester said : " Suoh a catastrophe rightly appals us by its magnitude. The stroke is awful, but is i t only awful ? " Can we think so when we see how they stood by one another? ' J shall die alone,' was the solemn saying of a great Christian thinker. " These of whom we are thinking had almost cheated dealh of horror. _ They were together, and the human fellowship which is always revealed and deepened by a great experience was with them l i t power to the end, " Tha band who, by a noble instinct, played A hymn at the last only gave voice to the common heart of them, and tried what great nobleness was wrought i n them?

Nearly five hundred years ago a young Scottish princess was in danger of drowning, and was a,ed under romantic circumstances by an ancestor of the Earl of RotiieSThe earldom of Rothes was created during the fifteenth century, home time before this a Leslie (the family name) while riding on horseback found this voting princess in danger of drowning. I t is believed that she had attempted to ford a stream and had got into difficulties. Reaching down from his horse the rider lifted up the distressed princess and placed her behind him on lus mount. "GIN THE BUCKLES BIDE 1" " Grip fast," he said, turning to her as the horse plunged its way through the stream.

T o this day the motto of the Rothes family is " G r i p fast,""while three buckles are included i n the family coat-of-arms. A member of the Earl of Rothes' family told The Daily Mirror that the Countess of Rothes, who was a Miss Dyer Edwardes before her mar-

nape, had really a horror of the sea, and that the rescue from the" Titanic must have upset her terribly, " The Countess of Rothes cannot be called an athlete or sportswoman m any sense of the word," said our informant. " To describe her as an expert oarswoman is quite wrong." Nevertheless, the Countess of Rothes, i n those terrible hours among the Atlantic icefloes, seems to have done sterling work and to have been a comiort and an inspiration to the other women. Perhaps she recalled the motto, " Grip fast," and thought of that princess wdio, centuries ago, was rescued from a Scottish stream and, in a moment of danger, displayed a cool and cheerful spirit.

" Put your name down there on the left-hand side, where I've written the word ' Witness.' " Hayter wrote his name mechanically. I t gave ah odd air of realily to the document; " That's right. Now, can't you see how you are safeguarded on every side? I am also ready to promise you solemnly that I will look after your wife and daughter and your little boy, so that they shall be sheltered from any possible harm coming to them through what you will be doing for me.

" I ' l l do i t , for the sake of the past, and trusting to your solemn promises for the future.'

You must play your part well, and make the whole seem real." , Hayter made, some incoherent answerhe could not himself have said what it wasand went out.

Half a dozen persons were, saying this in whispers on the occasion ot the brilliant dinner-party at the great banker's private house in Grosvenor-square, while a score or more thought i t . Usually, Owen HumphreysLord V.-mdeion looked like a sort of human rock, against which the storms of the world would always beat in vain ; but to-night he did not look like this. To-night there w-as a very distinct shadow of anxiety and suspense on the hardfeatured face of the great banker, while his keen grey eyes, so steady and so merciless, had a look ihat was almost a hunted terror in'them. " I am afraid there must be something very w r o n g , " said the most beautiful of the women present. Lucine Hayter, speaking in a low voice to her father, when, later in the evening, he came up to her in the large white-and-gold drawing-room. " Oh, I don't think so ! " replied Wilfred Hayter, who was very closely associated with Lord Vanderon in business, and therefore ought to know what he was talking about. " A n y h o w , i f there is anything wrong, it can't be m o n e y ! " He had smiled as lie spoke, and " L i t t l e Lucine " smiled back to him with one of those rare, sweet, all-irradiating smiles that tell of the most perfect love and of "absolute confidence. Then they both turned suddenly, as if moved by one impulse, and saw the very man of whom they had been speaking. L o r d Vancleron himself, standing close to them and silently regarding them. Although there were many women of rank and great wealth present here among the guests tonight; there was not one of them who could compare in personal beautv with this eighteen-year-old daughter of the simple and not very important Wilfred Hayte-: The great society ladies positively blazed, with jewels, while Lucine Hayter had. only a pearl pendant, and three or four loops ot pearls showing amid the masses of her h a i r : but, with that bronze-gold hair, and her rich, yet delicate, complexion, her well-cut features, and soft, full lips, that had dimples lurking at their corners, she. in her simple white satin dress, made a picture which might well have dazzled any man, and quickened his pulses. ' ' H a y t e r , I want to speak privately with you. Come to my little lounge! " He spoke with more than usual abruptness, and there was a queer sound in his voice which told Wilfred Hay tier in an instant that his daughter had hit the truth when she had said that there was something wrong. A chill of apprehension ran Through the veins of the less important man as he followed his host and chief out of the white-andgold drawing-room, and through other rooms and along corridors until they came to.the foot of a queer little curving, stairway, consisting only of seven steep steps, leadim? to a small, round, sixwindowed room that.was built out at the back of the mansion. ...... . " ''Servants can never hear what one says up here." Vanderon said, as he led the way up the curving staircase. Wilfred Hayter went up after h i m , with the chill ninning anew through his veins, and a strange sense of impending disaster beginning to weigh him down. Lord Vanderon stalked up and down the smokeroom for some moments, taking no more notice of him than i f he had completely forgotten that he was there. Then suddenly he stopped and faced Hayter. *' I ' m in a tight corner! I ' m i n the very devil of a messface to face, with a terrifically ugly situation ! Bergmann told me to-day that he's going lo call in all his deposit to-morrow. That's over a million sterlinga million i n hard cashand it must be found ! " *' W h y , of course, it will !" Wilfred Haytcr looked at him in surprise. " The money's there; it's only got to be paid o u t ! " " That's where you're wrong, Hayter. Themoney's not t h e r e ! " '* Not there! " T h e younger man started in his chair. " N o t there? What do you mean?" " I mean what I say. Bergmann's million is not in my bank. A crisis came in my own private affairs a little while ago", and to help myself I made use of Bergmann's securities. I never thought it possible that he'd want to call in his money for the next two years, at least. A n d now he wants the whole of it out to-morrow ! And IweI can't pay I " Wilfred Hayter sprang to his feet. He had grown ghastly white as Vanderon had spoken, and now he stood in horror-stricken consternation, his hands, his whole body trembling. . , " T h e n what is to be done?" he almost cried. " Can't you get the money somehow?" , " Not in time. The notice is so short. .The whole amount is locked up in o i l , and X can't get it out in a hurry. I t would take months'three at least; and, meanwhile, Bergmanti has got to be paid to-morrow ! " There was a moment of chilling silence. Wilfred Hayter spoke : " W h a t is it possible for us to do? There must surely be a way out. Can't you think of a way ? " The hard, keen eyes of the banker, steely and pitiless, now slowly turned their gaze full upon Hayter's face, and riveted it there. " There is one way outand only one ! A scapegoat must be founda man in the employ of the * Copyright in the United States. reserved. Dramatis rights

bank, who will take upon his own shoulders all the blame of a robbcrv !" " A l l . t h e blame of w h a t - w h a t you have done?" breathed the other man, nirhast. \\ elt, if you like to put it that way, my dear Haytcryes!" The great man had shrugged his fine shoulders and bent his head. There was another spell of thrilling silence. This time it was the banker who broke it. He fidgeted with his strong hand as he spoke : " Of course, when I made use of. Bergmann's money, I did not do it with any criminal intentions." naturally meant to put it back again m the course of a few months. I still shall do so. I f Bergmann hadn't wanted to withdraw i t so unexpectedly, the whole of i t would have been paid back into the bank in a little while, and.nothing would ever have been heard of the transaction. Of course, I have won a great position, and so I live in a strong light. Whatever happens, I must keep myself unsmirched by the slightest suspicion. Y o u can see the terrible..need of that, surely, Hayter?" " Y e s , " Hayter agreed, i n a low voice. " W e l l , - t h e n , plainly the only thing to be done is to find a scapegoata man who w i l l take upon himself the blame of my mistake. That man must be found at once!" Havter noddedThe steady, pitiless gaze of those grey eyes.of. Vanderon's was still fixed upon h i m . I t told h i m silently what was coming next. " Hayter, will you be that man? W i l l you make this sacrifice for me, and for the good name of the bank?" ' S The dreaded appeal had come in woids now, and Wilfred Hayter's very soul quivered and shrank within h i m . . . . . H e tried to answer, but no words left his lips. Dumb and dry-throated he stood before the banker peer. -. ' ' ' .- - . " I t is a hard thing for me to _ remind y o u , " Vanderon went on, " but in this crisis you cannot forget haw much you owe to me. 1 took you from the gutter and fed and clothed and educated you. When you grew up I ga\e you work. I took you into my banking business, arid trusted and favoured you, and brought you on and on to the position whic' you hold to-daya splendid position. For He ven's sake, then, do what you can for me, now that, owing to a diabolical freak of circumstances, it is I who need help, and you, Hayter, who can give i t ! Think ! M y God, think what it means to me! " The disgrace and downfall of Lord Vanderon would be a scandal for a generation to come. M y name-would be a byword for ever!. But with you it would be different. You are a successful fellow in a quiet w a y ; but the \vorld does not know anything of you, and will not be greatly shocked i f i t hears that you have fraudulently appropriated "a million pounds' worth of the bank's securities. You will not be imprisoned." I . will see to that. You can get out of the country to-night" and away to some safe hiding-place, and after three months you will be able to come back again a free man ! " Wilfred Hayter's fingers were' working nervously as he stood listening, with his handsome, pale face growing at every moment more haggard and more desperate. " You want me to say that I took the securities? " he asked.'in a strangely-altered and halfchoked voice. . " T h a t ' s i t , isn't i t ? " Vanderon bent his head,' while his eyes s t i l l looked into Hayter's eyes. H i s hand gripped Hayter's arm. _ "Yes. that's i t . I want you to.go under for three months to save me, and to save the good name o f our bank. Y o u ' l l only have to bolt to-night, after having admitted your guilt i n the presence of cither your wife or* daughter, or both, and. the whole business w i l l be over." " My. wife and daughter?" Hayter had started. " Should I have to blacken myself i n their sight? Couldn't they be taken into our confidence?" "Certainly- n o t ! Nobody must be taken into our confidence. I n three months' time I shall be able to put you back again in your o l d place. I shall come to some arrangement with Bergmann by which your character w i l l be entirely cleared of a l l stain. And,- in the meantime, i n case I should die before the three months are up, I ' l l write out a full confession; though I don't look much like dying, do I , at only fifty-three, and with an iron constitution? " Yes; I ' l l write out a confessiona statement that I , and not you; am t h e . g u i l t v man i n this affair. I ' l l lodge i t with, a trustworthy lawyer, whose name I w i l l give you. So, you see that, whatever hapnens, things cannot go wrong w i t h you. Here, I ' l l write it out at once, so that you can see it and be satisfied." He walked to a writing-table, and, sitting down al it, took a sheet of paper and a pen, and began to write quickly. A minutetwo minutesand ihen he blotted the paper, and brought' it over to the man who had stood like a figure of stone awaiting- his next movement. " Read that ! " he said. Wilfred Hayter took the paper and looked at i t with eyes that, were eager and yet full of dread. He saw that it was a sheet of notepaper, w i t h the Vanderon coronet upon i t , and the address of this stately house i n the square where lived only the richest of the rich. There was also the date, and (hen came, in the banker peer's handwriting, the significant heading: " CONFESSION. " T, Lord Vamleron, owner of Morgan, Lone and Morgan's Bank, do hereby confess that the embezzlement from ray bank of bonds for

The Sacrifice. Blind and dazed and sick ! I t was no wonder that Wilfred Hayter felt like this as he made his way back in search of his wife and daughter. H e must find that dearly-loved wife and daughter, and they must all three go home at once, because he was i l l . A n d then he would go to his room and begin his preparations for taking upon his shoulders a felon's load of infamy and a felon's shame and sorrow. . -His. faculties felt strangely numbed. Would he have the energy to make the necessary preparations? A n d would he have the strength of purpose to carry out this awful thing that he had pledged himself to do? Then suddenly, as he was passing through one of ( T h i s p o w e r f u l n o w s e r i a l w i l l ho c o n the smaller drawing-rooms he was roused by hear- t i n u e d t o - m o r r o w i n " T h e D a i l y M i r r o r . " )

ing his daughter's voice. I t reached him faintly from beyond the curtains of a pretty nook leading out of the room which he had believed to be empty. H e stopped, hesitated for a moment, and then went softly nearer to that, jcurtained-off nook and listened. Lucine's voice came to his ear again', and more clearly now, though stilt very softly :' " Are you really sure you love me as much as all thai, John? It's so wonderful that I can hardly believe i t ! " A n d a man's voice answered hers passionately : " W o r d s can't say how much I love you, Lucine. I've hardly been the same man since the day I fi"t saw you. I t isn't only your face that has won me and held me, though that's lovely enoi gh to win and hold any man. I t is everything about you your grace, your sweet young ways, that are so girlish, and yet as stately as a young- queen's. Why won't yon love me a little in return? Is it bet.aua. -e's sonic oilier man? " . . o o i l , n o ! " came the girl's half-laughing, half-tremulous denial. " I am very fond of you, Mr, Armine-Jack. I am fonder of you than I am of anyone else i n the world except my father and mother. 1 don't know i f this fondness is the same thing as the love that you ask me to give y o u ; but perhapsperhaps" " That love will come, darlingI'll make i t come!" returned the man's voice. " I love you so much, Lucine, that you won't be able to help loving me a little i n r e t u r n ; and, until that day comes when you love me.passionately, madly, as I mean to make you love me, will you bind yourself to me by a promise, so that other men may not try to take you away'from me?" ' " " Oh,- Jack! Do you really want me so much as that? W h y , it's really engaging myself to y o u ! " " Y e s ! " There was passion in the man's voice. " I can't be satisfied with anything less._ O h , ray darling, i f you knew how full my heart is of wild longing for you, you wouldn't wonder that I want to bind you to m e ! You're everything to m e ! There is nothing that could happen to you that would turn me from yon .now. I f you were to be poor to-morrowutterly ruined and disgraced by some unforeseen calamityit would not make any difference to me. I should only thank Heaven for giving me the chance to show you what devotion means. Of course, I want you to engage yourself to m e ! Promise me that you will be mine, and mine only. Say, ' I promise you. Jack ! " ' ' " Y o u " are very .hard to satisfy to-night, Jack. You see, I've got used to calling you Jack already. But if it really w i l l make you happierwhy, yes, I give you mv promise! " . . ' Wilfred Hayter stole away from the Toom with a feeling of thankfulness." H e knew who this Jack " wasJohn 'Armine, a prosperous.'young stockbrokerand he felt comforted.by what he had overheard. ' " H e ' l l be a good friend to her and her mother and little Leonard while I ' m away," he told himself. " A n d though I ' m sure things will go_ right with me, yet i f they shouldn't, why, he'il stick by my dear ones against the whole world ! " A n d then, before he quite realised i t , he was at home, packing. When he had finished, he crept quietly into a small bedroom adjoining his dressing-rooma bedroom still called a night-nurserywhere, i n a narrow little bed, a small boy, whose pale little face was stilL almost a baby face, in spite p i his nine years, lay sleeping. " ".Good-bye, ' Lehnie,". whispered the father, speaking'very low, so as not to waken the child. :" Youi- dad's going away, my boy. , I t may be only for a little whilebut only Heaven knows. God bless you and watch over you, my little innocent "son'nie!" ". A n d a great tear fell from the man's eye and dropped o n the cheek of the sleeping, boy. Then Wilfred Hayter went downstairs again to his library, ivhere" Mrs. Hayter and Lucine still sat by the dying fife: _ . " H o w ar'eyoti feeling now, W i l f r e d ? " his wife asked h i m , looking at him rather fretfully. " You do look illterribly i l l . What ever is the matter with you? I never knew you to be taken i n this way before. A n d i t was such, a nuisance having to leave that lovely.house so early ! Are you sure we oughtn't to send for the doctor? " Wilfred Hayter shook his head as he sat down. " N o , n o ! It's not a Case for a doctorit's something else." . "Something else! . W h a t ever do you mean? What's the "good of being so mysterious?" " Don't worry father, mother dear, if he doesn't feel quite himself." Hayter glanced at the clock on the mantelpiece. Then be looked at them as they sat quite close to himhis wife, a thin, small-faced, rather peevishlooking woman in heliotrope velvet, and his daughter, so radiant and fresh, even at this hour of the night," i n her simple white satin and pearls. And he broke forth passionately, desperately : - " I wonder what you both would do i f trouble came to youreal trouble, and poverty and misery and humiliation? You have al\yays been blessed by fortune, sheltered and cherished, Tapped in rich comfort, that I feel you would be helpless and stranded i f things went wrong. I t makes my heart ache to think o f what you would suffer i f i f anything happened "to i n c . " " M y dear W i l f r e d , how very odd you a r e ! " exclaimed M r s . Hayter Irritably, " F r o m your manner, one would think you'd got something dreadful on your m i n d . " H e looked at her closely, searchingly. H i s daughter had put one o f her hands in one o f his, and he was clasping that dear hand tightly. " A n d what i f you are right. Edna? What i f I have indeed got something dreadful on my mind and i n my lifesomething that compels me to leave you and Lucine and Leonard and hide myself? What t h e n ? " " -" " What t h e n ! Oh, dear tne, W i l f r e d , what a w o r r y i n g creature you are ! " A n d his wife made an annoyed movement. " L o r d V a n d e r o n ! " announced a sleepy servant. - . . Mrs. Hayter and Lucine looked up i n surprise as the banker peer advanced into the room. They could hardly believe their eyes. They had only just l e f t his house. W h y had he come here?

Early m October, 187-1, I started from Glasgow for Melbourne m the Allanshaw, a 1,00'J-ton saner. On board were between fifty and sixty passengers, in addition to a crew of about thirtvbetween eighty and ninety in a l l . Severe weather was at mice experienced, during which the ship suffered considerable damage and lost its lifeboats, which were smashed into niatehwuod hv heavy seas. As we had not lost, sight of England when the weather moderated, it woukl have been a simple matter for the captain to have replaced the boats and repaired the damage. He, however, declined to do so, saying that i t would be more than his position was worth. As it was, nearly mnetv people were seme eighty-two davs at sea m a ship that nee led repair and had practically no boat accommodation. ISO law was broken, and none would be to-uay. Lvery captain shouht, however, be required to replace lost boats when a reasonable opportunity might be at hand. V. A corresnondent to The Daily Mirror of A p r i l IS, I notice, savs that a ship amonsrst icebergs should come to a dead stop. That wouid not do, for the icebergs are moving, and the ship must be kept moving to keep out of their xvav. The great danger in going through a number of icebergs is that i n avoiding one there is the danger o! running into another. Iherc is often foe among iceberg'-;.

The smaller Jhtship the easier it is to wend her way through the icebergs. T h e cure for this danger in the Atlantic is to avoid the iceberg area, for it is an almost impossible feat for these big liners to go through a ficc of ice-bergs without having some accident.

Since the terrible disaster of the Titanic teaches us that an ocean voyage can never be immune from risk, find the travelling public must learn to protect ilscif, may I respectfully sugeest that with every pjtssenger ticket issued it should be compulsory ior a numbered hlebcat ticket to be issued at the same time, the corresponning number being marked clearly on the ship s lifeboats, each passenger becoming well acquainted with the position of said seat and boat, and with those ot the crew who man i t , before the ship is allowed to leave dock? Surely the slight delay this regularior. would involve would be richly compensated by the feeling of safety i t would engender. O-vb W h o H a s Crossed t h e A t l a n t i c THiSTY-srx Times. A memorial service was held in St. Paul's Cathedral. I am i n accord with such service, but I would like to have seen that such a service was to be held in every parish church, thereby giving many the opportunity of taking part. St. Paul's Cathedral is, of course, a central place, but i t is decidedly inconvenient for many who work in the West E n d and on the outskirts ot the City. Perhaps i t is not too late to make such a request known, and T would suggest that such services be held at neon on a special day to be fixed.

A W A R N I N G T O W O M E N . W h e n the hair tends to fall out, it is well known that its growth can be improved and encouraged only by the use of some kind of oil or grease which feeds the sluggish hair-roots. A fact less generally known, however, is that cold crecim, ointments, complexion creams and many other preparations used for softening the skin of the face and i m proving the complexion contain the very oils and greasy substances which, made up into pomades and hair-washes, promote the growth of the hair. Repeated use of such things inevitably encourages the growth of hair on the lips and chin, both of which contain numerous latent hair-roots which can be called up into activity if thus fed. No woman can be loo careful i n her choice of what she applies to her face. Pomeroy Skin Food, which can be obtained from any chemist, including a l l Hoots' branches, in eiglueenpenny or larger jars, is not only greatly superior to anything else as a complexion beautiI'er, but also tree from any ingredient which encourages the growth of superfluous hair. I t removes all pimples, blackheads and similar blemishes, and by being gently massaged over lines or wrinkles, so as to nourish the little fat cells under the skin, gradually fills up the wrinkles and makes the fiknv. soft. and plump.

II.Pilgrim's CHAPTER

v m

Days passed, and Janet Rve liutlg between l i f e .and death. The finely-adjusted balance had givenwov. Too great a strum on her nervous system, loo" exacting a demand on her gentle and loving heart had done their work, anil the jarred nerves und overwrought'tissues had been obliged to give to Nature her t o l l . Janet was very i l l indeed. The wedding guests and a thousand other people sent telegram* or condolence, and whispered among each other that it was evidently not meant to be, as this was the- second time i t had been put o i l . Milliard called at the hotel every day and saw Ociavia Frayne, who was devotedly nursing her friend, w i t h the help o f professionals hardly more competent than she. Those interviews might have been conducted under the eyes o f a thousand people, although the man realised that she was the one woman i n the w o r l d for h i m , He was strong enough to Wait. H e noted small things, that she d i d not always return his gaze when she spoke to h i m , that she never allowed the conversation to wander for a second from" Janet and her condition, that she alwayt.spoke o f going away as. soon as ever her f r i e n d was w e l l . He wondered i f she read anything i n his eyes and i n his voice. . . Meanwhile, the* problem was by no means solved for him. - Janet struggled back, to l i f e . She crept back from the grim shadows very slowly, but every day there was progress to report.

* .

Three weeks- after- Janet had been taken i l l B a l l a r d went one morning to the offices of a gentleman named M r . Lawrence Cowdrey, situated i n Sackville-street.' They w e r e - v e r y charmingly furnished rooms, and M r . Cowdrey was a moneylender on a very large scale.. He r q a l l e d himself a financial agent. He only conducted very important transactions, and often boasted, over a glass of champagne, that some of the signatures locked up in his safe would make anybody who saw them sit up. But nobody ever saw them, and M r . Covvdrey was natur a l l y the soul of discretion. D u l l a r d was ushered immediately into this gentleman's private room. M r . Cowdrey was smoking a very cheap and nasty Virginian cigarette, thus setting at naught the tradition of his class, which demands an expensive cigar. H e was a small man, and so fair and small-featured that hardly anybody would have taken him for a member o f the Semitic race, which he was on his father's side, his mother having been a Neapolitan fishing g i r l . H e wore very shabby-looking clothes, and on this occasion a bowler hat on the back of his head- He bad a trick o f keeping his eves half shut, which he no doubt found useful in liis{business. " . W e l l , my dear, sir ! " / h e exclaimed, as B i l l iard came i n . ( " ArftHitfw goes the world? A n d what can I di> for y o u ? " He had a very b i g voice, quite out o f proportion to his size. " I want to.renew that last b i l l , " B u l l a r d replied. H e d i d not trouble to ingratiate himself w i t h men like Cowdrey. He was direct and very much on his guard, and his manner was never less vital and less magnetic. " Impossible, my dear s i r , " said the moneylender. " Don't talk nonsense ! I t ' s got to be done." Y o u ' l l have to get another backer then. Redworth's n u n c isn't worth the paper it's written on when we get into sums like t h i s . " " I t ' s nothing to do with Redworthvon know that, as well as I do. I've got to get through another three months." The moneylender opened his eves wide for a moment. " I suppose the postponement o f your marriage is responsible for t h i s ? " I t was his business 10 know everything. Bullard's face was unreadable. " M y marriage never affected (he position at a l l . " " But you must see that the security given by the mere fact that you were (joing to marry a lady in Lady Rye's financial position " " Cut that o u t , " interrupted Bullard sternlv. " L a d y Rye does not come into this matter at a l l . " "Perhaps not actually ~" " Not in any w a y . " 'Then I cannot understand what you are asking me to do " * To renew this bill for another three months." " But the bill was acceptedthe whole transaction took place on the very understanding that vou were going to marry Lady R y e . " " T h a t does not matter now." The moneylender shrugged his shoulders. . " M y dear M r . Bullard. I don't understand you. But perhaps you have thought of another b a r k e r ? " " No." " T h e n I very much-regret it's quite impossible. The b i l l falls due this day week.if I remember rightly." " I can't meet i t , Cowdrey." Again the moneylender shrugged his shoulders. ' You gentlemen arc never without resources," lie said. ' I want you to do it for me, Cowdrev. You know that it will be all r i g h t . " " M y dear sir," said the moneylender, " I have personally the greatest admiration for you. I know that you are capable of making a fortune in a week. I f you floated a new company to-morrow. I ' d prob. ably take shares in i t . But business is business. And in my business we can't afford to be q a i i o t i c . " Copyright, U.S.A.; I-MfcV

" I ' m not asking you to be." '" M y dear sir, ' said the little moneylender, blandly, "so far practically your whole secuuty lias been the fact ot your approaching marriage, f understand the lady is very i l l . " Bnllard rose to his feel. His face iva:; a mask. -* Do you mean this, Co'.vtlrc}-? " " I ' m afraid I do, sir." . " You're sending me to the Bankruptcy Court." " To such gentlemen as you it's as good as a nursing home," was the other's chuckling comment. Bullard did not say anything lor a moment. Then he looked at the little moneylender with with, enng contempt. " You must be a fool," he said. " You won't get a pennynot for ages. I f you do as I ask 3*ou, you'll have all your money i n three months. Make it a hundred per cent., if you l i k e . " The little-moneylender sat up, spat out the end of his cigarette into an ash-try with great dexterity", and tilted his hat over his eves. " M y dear sir," he said, " I know how far I can go. M r . Redworth has been at me, too/ 1 may tell you. He's i n a dead!}- funk. I ' m -very -sorry for the poor gentleman. What possessed, him to back your bill I can't imagine. Anyhow, I've gone as far as I can. There's an old saying that it's no use throwing good money' after bad. I've got to pull up in time. I ' m not. a philanthropist, I've got others dependent on me. A n d I ' m afraid that's all I can say. I f you'll get Lady Rye to back "a fresh b i l l " " ' " . . Billiard walked to the door. " Mind your own business," he said violently. " Don't let me have to teach you not to drag a lady's name into a thing like this, vou dirty little brute!" The little moneylender tilted his. hat back again. " W e l l , considering I stand to lose ninety thousand pounds, not to mention the interest, . that's about the coolest thing I ever heard!" he exclaimed in a voice that was actually feeble w i t h surprise. ' But Joshua Bullard -was already out o f the roomHe w t straight to Janet's hotel. - Octavia came into th sham Empire sitting-room. Her plump face was a little drawn with anxiety, but the inspired eyts were bright with the hope and faith that persist through all sorrow and pain, looking ever towards the dawn when the shadows shall flee away. . "How is Janet?" asked the man, taking the woman's hand and holding it close. " E v e r so much better,- - she answered. She looked at him with a smile, in n l i i r h there was a touch of wonder. He 'urrs always asking himselt whether she knew: but he had not asked her vet. She was the first woman who had made him feel humble. She was-the first w o m a n of whom-he stood a little in awe. " T h a t ' s good," he said. " I think you will be allowed to see her tomorrow. I t is pathetic how she longs for you. I t makes me want to cry sometimes." No, he reflected; she could not possibly know. She would -never speak like that. " I t is splendid that she is getting on so w e l l , " he said quietly. " Y o u will take her away afonce, won't y o u ? " Octavia went on eagerly. " I am sure that will be best for her. Y o u must have a quiet wedding, and then a long, restful stay in some dear, quiet place by the sea, or in the mountains. She loves both equally, I think. Perhaps it would be as well to take her straight out to Africa. She would love that best of a l l . " " W o u l d you come, t o o ? " he asked. The words slipped out. Octavia coloured and looked intensely embarrassed. " I ! Oh, what a funny question ! I expect I shall be going back later on. But you wouldn't want me then ! Dear Janet will be perfectly well, I ' m sure, once she's on the way to her beloved country." " Y o u r beloved country, too, isn't i t ? " he asked. His voice was low. I t was charged with a curious, poignant force that made Octavia move restlessly and glance at the door as she answered: " Oh, yes, I love it with all my heart." " I should like to be with you out there." "Some day," she answered constrainedly, " I hope we shall all three meet out there. You will love Janet's home. It's the most superb and romantic situation in the world." Just then a nurse appeared to sav that Lady Rye was asking for M r s . r r a y n e , and Bullard took his leave and went away. . That night another link i n the chain of his destiny was forged. A message came late, just after midnight, to say that Janet Rye had taken a sudden turn for the worse at nine o'clock and had just passed away quite peacefully and during a period of unconsciousness. 1 hey had been searching for him everywhere, but bad been unable to find him. He had, as a matter of fact, been dining with a man whom he had met hy chance in the City, and his man had not known where lie was to be found. I t was Strang; how fate chose to smooth his path, he told himself. H e sincerely mourned his childhood's friend, the gentle, loving, generous soul who had sought alway% the welfare of others, and whose heart had been great enough to embrace a whole land. I n the absence o! near relatives, he was the chief mourner at her funeral, which took place in the peaceful little churchyard of her Devonshire home. Octavia was certain that she would have had her body taken out to Rhodesia, but as there were no specific instructions in her w i l l , this yvas not done. She left her husband's enormous wealth entirely in trust for the benefit of Rhodesia. There was a whole volume of instructions as to the disposal of it. Bullard was one of the trustees, Cctnvi* Frayne was...another; a certain brave

" T h e best skin Specialists (old. me that nothing would remove my freckles and that I would carry them to my grave," said a well-known societyLady, " b u t I fooled them all with a new drugj telmodouble strength, that can be obtained at Boot's, Taylor's, T i m o t h y ^.White's, Hodder's, Lewis and "Burrows, L t d . , and- leading chemists, which cleared my skin and gave me a fine complexion." The action of telmo is really remarkable, for when applied at night, many of the freckles disappear entirely by morning, and the rest have begun to fade. A n ounce is usually all that is needed, even for the worst case. Be sure" to ask your chemist for the double strength telmo, as this is sold under a guarantee of money back i f i t fails to lemove the freckles. (Advt.)

Any woman not satisfied with her complexion can remove it and have a new one. The thin vei! o f stifling, half-dead cuticle is an encumbrance, and should be removed To give the fresh, vigorous young skin underneath a chance to show itself and to breathe. . There is a simple old-fashioned home remedy wdiich w i l l always do the work. Get some pure mercolized wax from your chemist, and apply i t at night like cold cream, washing i t off i n the morning. The mercolide w i l l gently absorb a l j the lifeless skin, and leave a healthy and beautii ful complexion, as fresh as a child's. N a t u r a l l y , it takes with i t a l l such facia! blemishes as freckles, tan, moth patches, sallowness, liver spots, pimples, etc. I t is pleasant to use, effective and economical. The face so treated immc* diately looks years younger. Mereolized wax proves the truth o f the saying that " Beauty is only skin deep." Its action is so gradual and painless as to be almost imperceptible, and it does not disfigure or irritate the face whilst the transformation is taking place, and it can w e l l be regarded as one o f the greatest modern boons by womankind.-(Advt.) ,

I f you suffer from Nasal Obstruction, Catarrh, Sore Throat, Snoring, Adenoids, Polypi, etc., you should vvrite for the special book just publisiied which will tell you how to obtain immediate relict and cure. The book has been written by the Rev. A . Allen Barratt, M . A . , Vicar of Claygate, one of our leading authorities on. breathing. Tltis interesting publication, generously sent free by post i f applied for to-day, is written in a piain-spokeii manner, ar.d contains very useful information on correct Nose Breathing, and on the unhealthy and pernicious habit of Mouth Breathing. I t also describes the Rev. Barratt's remarkable invention, the Alb.ir, a clever little device which positively prevents Mouth Breathing, and enables anyone, old or young, to breathe properly through the nose, thus enabling the lungs to get their full supply ot pure, tresh air. The appliance need only be worn for a short time each day and its beneficial effects are felt immediately- The Nose, Throat, and Lungs experience a sense of freedom, the Chest is developed and the Nerves strengthened. Letters received from Medical Men, Athletes, Mothers of young children, and others indicate that the Albar gives immediate relief and will prevent and cure Adenoids, S t i o r n<5, Sore Throats, Stuffiness, Catarrh, Nasal Obstruction, Polypi, B r e a t h i n g D i f f i c u l t i e s , etc., etc. Many of the best-known runners, including Gardiner, Barrett, and Fox, now use the Albar. I t will be found invaluable in training to Runners, Cvclists, Wrestlers, nnd all Athletes.

3, Coi'THAI.t. BUILBIKGS, E . C . Following on die heels ol the deal between the New Zealand Shipping Company and Messrs. Houlder Brothers and Company comes the news of further important shipping developments. Messrs. Houlder Brothers, it is stated, arc considerably extending and developing -their shipping interests., particularly in the Argentine trade. Tlicy have just arranged, on behalf of the Houlder Line, for the purchase of two large twin-screw, refrigerated vessels, which will be engaged in a new weekly line of fast meat-carrying steamers from the River Plate to Liverpool, which has been formed by Messrs. Furness, Withy and Company and the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company. In addition to this the Houlder Line is also purchasing five new, large and well-equipped general cargo steamers for the development of their general cargo interests between this country and the Argentine. I t is further stated that the Empire Transport Company, which is also under the management of Messrs. "Houlder Brothers, have contracted for eight additional large and well-equipped general trading steamers. " A RILL OF TIN LODE MATTER." There is now issued the promised report of M r . A . W . H . Anderson upon the new discovery on the property of the Benue T i n Mines at Leri-nDuchi. M r . Anderson, who is the company's exmanager, has brought back samples of alluvial tin and several specimens of lode matter, samples of which are being at once submitted to the company's assayers for examination and report. The first and most important find, says M r . Anderson, is a hill embracing an area of about one square mile, having an elevation of about 500ft.; this h i l l is practically all t i n lode matter. There are many thousands of tons of t i n lode matter shed all over the hill, giving values of 3 per cent, or 4 per cent, tin oxide to the ton, and i n many cases the ore is half t i n . M r . Anderson describes the discovery as undoubtedly the most important yet made in Northern Nigeria, and adds that the conditions for working' this hill are most favourable in every way Overshadowed by the Titanic disaster, the latest Italo-Turkish developments, and the near approach of the settlement, stock markets on Saturday were extremely subdued. The process of weeding out weak bulls was continued apnce i n the Home Railway market, where the favourites suffered a further rapid reaction. I n face of their various troubles Consols managed to close unchanged,, but dealers in the Home Railway market seemed to have no hesitation in lettingprices down sharply. The Southern Railway stocks were particularly weak, Sotith-Eastern Deferred dropping as much as SJ,'while " M e t s . " were also sold with freedom and closed with a loss of 1 on the day. American Marconis were again a wildly active market, closing at 3J after being up to 3 | and down to 3. The shares of the parent company were again sold freely prior to the settlement, and finished with a loss of -?g on the day. The O i l share market-spent quite a busy morning, and quotations for the most part displayed a hardeninfif tone. Dealing i n the Mining markets was restricted by the imminence of the settlement, which begins tomorrow. CLOSING PRICES. HOME RAILS.

He could not control the ball, and. was generally, a gift to Utley. .Still, he managed to get in tho two best shots for his'side. Bartrop, the Barnsley outside-right, was nearly the best forward on the field. The others were about what I expeered them to befast, but poor players for the most part. One real good inside forward in the Barnsley team and they would be a great side. Mr. Schumacher refereed splendidly. He twice penalised what appeared to be fair charges from where we sat, a long way off in the Press-box, and made about one offside blunder. Except for offside. there was practically no whistle, and little need for it. With Pennington frequently playing the one-back game for long spells, we had a good deal of offside, and Mr. Schumacher's decisions were splendidly judged. Among those present were the Lady Mayoress of London, who was to have presented'the Cup and medals to the winners-Lord Portsmouth, Lord Dartmouth, Lord Lewisham I*>rd Lucas, Sir .Joseph Walton.

Hornet's

Beauty's

Stable Companion; at Derby.

SOME EXCITING FINISHES.

I n the concluding stage of the racing at Derby the most remarkable occurience i n its general i n terest was the runaway w i n of Sir William Cooke's Mahsud in the Chaddesden Plate. I t reminded us of the strange ilL-luck attaching- to that owner's Hornet's Beauty, to whom Mahsud is stones i n ferior. Mahsud, in this handclap at Derby, was carrying topweight, but only 21b, more than Prince San. Mahsud won in a canter, and th fact suggests again a question as to what manner of horse Hornet's Beauty must be. We hope to seo the question answered at a near date, when he comes out- perfectly restored from the effects of the; accident which spoiled him for the Lincoln Handicap, and caused his withdrawal from the City and Suburban Handicap. Mahsud is good looking enough to be a- regular flyer. The colt's form behind Highwayside, in last Tuesday's race at Newmarket, was ths reverse of encouraging, so while High wayside was. favourite in this Chaddesden Plate, at fractionally shorter odds than^Excehior. and Prince San had plenty of support, there did not seem to be a penny la the market for Mahsnd. Excelsior, it should be added, was the greatest disappointment of -the lot, as he ran swerving and most ungenerously. The most experienced of racegoers have not seen -a more puzzling race than that for the Derbyshire Plate. To call it a contest would- almost be an abuse of language, e* *strango were the tactics of some of the jockeys in their muddling conduct during a slowly ruu mils and a half. The rider who seemed most alive to. tho situation was Rabbins, who tootc command on Seaton Delaval (when Goliath ran out at the paddock turn shortly after the start), and, retaining the lead quite comfortably, won easily from Hair Trigger I I . and Assayer. Bottom weight in the handicap. Election, was an even money chance, but made no creditable show, even when his opponents were merely dawdling. There were some very -close finishes. Passing By apparently had the Derwent Plate in safe keeping till almost on the winning post, where Mountain Lassie filly got up to gain a head verdict. This was the first winner sent out by Mr. Herbert Randall, who has relinquished race-riding for training. Many of the youngsters in the Osmaston Plate destroyed their chancea at ~the offset, a prominent failure being Journeyman. There was, however, no excuse for the leading lot, of whom Loch Lochy showed most decisive superiority to her nearest attendants, Thistlcton and Barrier. Bl?("k Cap. pulled out at the wrong time in the new ownership, after giving several engagements a miss ran up -against a mnch smarter plater in tho High field Selling, which was won " anyhow " by Pietist. Very, keen and exhilarating was the concluding affair, the Chatsworth 8fc?.ke?, for which threo candidates werewell backed. Magical Maid, expected to continue the good luck of Fnnk Hartig?.n"j stable, had the best of the argument for the greater, part of the mile, but in a splendid finiph lost by a few inches to Cherry Kinsr.

The South African cricketers arrived at Southampton on Saturday in the Caps liner Balmoral Castle, Mr. Frank Mitchell, the well-known Yorkshire cricketer, who is to captain the side, said the present team was about as strong as that which visited England four years ago. They would, however, miss Sherwell and Vogler very much. They had no fast bowler with them, but in Hartigan. ono ot the new. men, they had a good leg-break bowler, likely to get a lot of wickets. The batting strength of the side was rery good. They expected much from Faulkner, though eight or nine ot the other men had made hundreds in first-class cricket. The players were a good set of sportsmen and he was perfectly certain they would maintain in that respect the traditions dI former South African teams.
