CHAPTER XIX
Before the week had ended the
Black Petrel filled her sails for Bar
ataria with Greloires parting words
of advice repeating themselves in La
fittes ears
Wind up your affairs in Louisiana
mon ami and do as the emperor de
sires return to France and assume
your own name and rank
So back to Louisiana he sailed with
his mind in a turmoil that gave un
wonted austerity to his manner and
awed his crew into much speculation
The fever of his first impulse hav
ing now abated he began to upbraid
himself for having left Pierre and
wondered if anything evil might have
befallen his foster brother Day by
clay as the Black Petrel drew nearer
to Barataria he kept himself busy by
querying as to what if any changes
would be found there and as to what
progress the war had made
Louisiana and especially New Or
leans must in his judgment be des
tined to bear a share in the conflict
even though this might not be until
the eleventh hour for the possession
of the Mississippi and its valley had
for many years been a dream of Great
Britains ambition
Night and day thinking matters
over he resolved that his next step
would be to gather what he might of
men and shipping and wealth and in
the hope of wiping all stigma from his
name offer these to the Governor of
Louisiana for use in warring against
the English And the possibility of
this opportunity being afforded him
with its reward a pardon for himself
and men covering all past offenses
the rehabilitation of himself before his
world made his blood tingle
This accomplished he would return
to France assume his fathers name
and rank and stand ready to serve the
emperor
And the Island Rose how had she
been faring all this time and what
amid the changed conditions he was
Missed thee Aye in every way as
I ever do when we are apart But
somehow it was a taste worse
this time perhaps because thou wert
away in France where as thou hast
said I am growing homesick to go
And as I have also said we will go
together and soon We will return to
Languedoc thou and I Pierre and see
the old gardens and roam in the park
and try to be boys once more The
words ended with a joyous laugh
And read of De Soto and Pizarro
and the tales of Louisiana added
Pierre interrogatively a curious sad
ness touching his voice
Nay indeed not replied Jean so
bering at once We have lived too
many practical chapters of a like sort
my Pierre to ever again enjoy the old
book
And the emperor said Pierre ir
relevantly to think of his keeping
the little box of papers for thee
Yet it was like him to do such -a
thing asserted Jean with vibrant
tone and glowing face Ah if but he
were back in France and free from
those cursed English
Aye Pierre affirmed a growl
sounding in his voice The English
there on Elba their power behind the
throne of France and their ships
sneaking in here to snatch at Louisi
ana and the Mississippi Cursed Eng
lish say I
From what Piefre told him that
night Jean Lafitte knew as clearly
as though he had remained at Bara
taria all that had transpired since his
departure
This had been shortly after Gen
Andrew Jackson defeated the Creek
Indians at the battle called Tohope
kah a disaster that broke their pow
er and compelled the English to cease
reckoning upon them as allies And
after this signal victory Gen Jackson
had been given command of the Sev
enth military district which included
the State of Louisiana
It was now very evident that New
You know my secret Pierre
mappirg out for himself would be her
place
The remembrance of the last time
he had seen her with her girlish face
and form manifesting such shrinking
terror of him had its sorrow now
lightened by the hope so strong in his
heart that he would be able to redeem
himself in her estimation
The Black Petrel keeping a sharp
lookout for English vessels stole into
the Gulf of Mexico and sped across it
Then turning to the east and north
Lafitte made for the western shore of
Grande Terre and the harbor of Bara
taria where jn due time the brigan
tine dropped anchor
It was the evening of Lahtte s ar
rival He and Pierre were alone to
gether and being unable to count up
on unlimited privacy they seated
themselves for a full talk and compar
ison of notes Jean to give Pierre the
particulars of his recent trip and to
hear from him an account of the hap
penings at Barataria and New Orleans
I wish I might have been with you
in Toulon Pierre said with what
sounded like a sigh I have a longing
to see France again before I die
Before you die repeated Jean
a slight touch of testiness in his tone
Why do you talk thus One would
think you were three score at least in
stead of a stalwart giant of half those
years and he laughel half playfully
half deridingly
There was no answering smile on
Pierres face which was again turned
to the fire But after a momentary
silence he said abstractedly as if
thinking aloud I cannot give a good
reason for it but there has of late
been something like a conviction grow
ing upon me that I have not much
longer to live Perhaps and he
raised his eyes to Jeans wondering
face it is nothing more than that I
am homesick
We will wind up our affairs here
and go to France declared Jean de
cisively Rouse thyself Pierre and
speak no more in such a fashion
What nonsense thou after all the
dangers we have met and overcome to
gether to have such a premonition I
think my brother and the tone
brought a gratified sparkle to the other
mans eyes that thou hast missed
for the present let it rest
I Orleans was to be attacked as soon as
the English could concentrate a
ncient torce lor that purpose and
Gov Claiborne had called a session of
the legislature besides taking all other
measures in his power toward raising
means for defense But the legislators
were slow to co operate with him and
the same malcontents whose scheming
had already wrought such harm to
Louisiana were using all possible
means to neutralize the governors ef
forts
As Lafitte listened to all this he
congratulated himself anew that the
Black Petrel lay anchored safely
before Grande Terre He felt also that
no time could have been more aus
picious for making the offer he pro
posed to lay before the governor an
offer of service by himself and his
followers in consideration of pardon
for all past misdeeds whether actual
or alleged
When he voiced these thoughts and
plans to Pierre the latter agreed un
reservedly and both men were con
fident of their ability to obtain the ac
quiescence of their followers
But think you Jean inquired the
more cautious Pierre there is not
reason to doubt if Gov Claiborne ac
cept our offer I do not wish to damp
en thy ardor but we must remember
the threats he has made against the
Baratarians
i
He surely will not make the mis
take of refusing our services in such
an emergency at a time when every
man able to bear a gun will be sorely
needed in New Orleans was Jeans
confident reply and Pierre raised no
more doubts that night
Among the other items of informa
tion he had given and which al-
though of slight interest to himself
were otherwise to his listener was
that Count de Cazeneau had at La
Roches invitation closed his house in
New Orleans and gone with his grand
daughter for a visit to the formers
plantation La Tete des Eaux near the
head of Bayou Bienvenu also that La
Roche had taken this occasion to per
suade his ward the Senorita Lazalie
to join his house party
He is now a general in the state
militia Pierre added and with a
laugh it is common talk in New Or-
M
leans that he is mad for love of tho
Spanish girl
And she inquired Jean carelessly
as he patted the head of a hound
crouched by his chair
Pierre shrugged his broad shoulders
She is a woman who therefore
may say what she thinks or will do
or not do
Jean laughed as he knocked the
ashes from his cigar
Thou hast a poor opinion of the
fair ones my Pierre
Plave I If so it was thyself
taught me the lesson
The laughing face sobered at once
and a troubled look came into the eyes
fixed upon Pierres half mocking ones
Say you Pierre that I taught you
any such lesson
Aye that you have with your scorn
of women and their ways Seeing
through your eyes I long ago learned
to look upon women as but snares to
love whom brings mischief and the
ruin of a mans heart
Pierre wondered at the gentleness of
the tone that answered If ever I
taught you such a thing I taught un
knowingly something I never believed
myself for I think a true woman is a
thing to reverence as the saints and
that love in a mans life is like He
stopped short and his dark face took
a dreaming look as he gazed into the
fire
After a short silence he continued
The lack of love in a mans life is
like a world without sunshine or a
I lamp without oil without light And
to live always in darkness would make
life little worth the living
Pierre had been staring at him and
as he stared his slumbering wits awak
ened
In a groping but certain way he be
gan to rightly suspect the possible
cause of a hitherto puzzling change he
had noticed in his foster brother and
satisfied as to this he now blurted out
Jean my brother tell me who is
she you love
Jean started and his brows con
tracted into a frown
Thou art not angry with me that I
asked
Angry The word was repeated
v ith a soft laugh as if the supposition
were too absurd to call for refutation
And she loves thee in return
Pierre ventured encouraged by the
laugh
Jean shook his head and a bitter
sadness touched the still smiling lips
Not love thee exclaimed Pierre
incredulously Then she must be
blind or a fool he added m sudden
wrath
Neither the one nor the other my
Pierre Jean answered as he rose
from his chair I had never thought
to ask her love nor knew that I loved
her when by accident she discovered
that I was the terrible pirate Lafitte
and shrank from me as if I had been
the plague or death itself That was
long ago and I have not since laid
eyes on her
There was a world of suppressed
passion sounding underneath the ring
of mockery in his voice and Pierre
saw his hand tremble as he laid his
arm against the stone support of the
chimney and looked down into the em
bers
Pierre now rose and tossed his cigar
into the fireplace appearing to think
there was nothing more to be said
But he turned quickly to Jean as the
latter laying a hand upon his foster
brothers shoulder added You know
my secret Pierre for the present let
it rest where it is and give no heed
as to who she is I may yet win her
and I may not If I do then you snail
know her and you will love her of
that I feel assured
Well you may my Jean if she is
dear to thee for that she must now be
to me
Aye and God bless thee for a true
other self said Jean grasping the
others hand That I could know
without the telling Still it is pleas
ant to hear thee say it I will clear
my name Pierre thine and mine
that must be first After that we
shall see
To be continued
DRESS OF THE JUNGLE LADY
Simple Costume Sufficient for
Her
Savage Life
The low caste Siamese of the jungle
have few wants and live like animals
eating chiefly wild fruits and rice
which they raise in small cleared
spots wherever they happen to tem
porarily settle Like the Karens the
jungle people of Burma they are al
ways on the move and in common
with all low caste Siamese are petty
thieves of an incurable propensity
Yet they are obedient servile to an
unpleasant degree for white blood
They manufacture nothing save crud
est domestic household necessities
and personal ornaments from bamboo
Clothes are of slight consequence On
the jungle edge they go uncovered
men and women above the waist the
panung reaching within four inches of
the knee but deep in the jungle they
are practically naked
Their single implement is a long
bladed butcherlike knife used as path
maker as weapon together with a
wood spear and industrially in fash
ioning out of the ubiquitous bamboo
their ornaments their buckets their
rope their string their houses and
the food receptacles which take the
place of pots and pans and plates
Nearly all of the jungle folk on both
sides of the Siam Burma line tattoo
the thigh sometimes from knee to
hip more often from the knee to only
six inches above The design may be
a turtle or the much dreaded tiger
done elaborately but the one most
frequently seen and the simplest is a
sort of lace or fringe pattern in the
middle of the thigh or just below the
knee like a garter The women do
not tattoo believing in beauty un
adorned heaven knows they need
