The Leach family goes back, In
England, to the time of King Edward
III., who ruled from 1327 to 1377. Dur
ing his reign there were three visi
tations in Eugland of the dreaded
plague then called the "Black Death."
and a good physician, or surgeon, as
he was then called, was worth his
weight in gold.
There was such a surgeon in the
King's household, and his name was
John Le Leche or Leach. Perhaps,
as the first form of the name suggests,
the family came from France, for
King Edward's mother was s French
woman. Anyway, the name Leach
was derived from the leech then so
much used In medicine, and consid
ered practically a cure-all, the symbol
ism of health, and, therefore, a good
name for a physician.
Later Edward granted a large land
ed estate to John Leach, and arms
as well, and as you may see In the

She pressed her hand over her eyes,

depths.

have you stolen this yacht? What
real purpose underlies this terrible
outrage?"
1 made no effort to disguise the
deep sympathy I felt for her, yet
there was nothing I could answer but
must hac sounded both harsh and
cruel.
"The motive animating the men in
control is similar to that which ren
ders possible most of the rtpsnoratn
do Is patiently to abide my efforts to
release you from such companionship.
I mean to do my best, even to the sac
rifice of my life. The very thought of
hearing you with us into the fogs and
dangers of that storm-lashed oceaa is
misery to me. God knows I would do
any thing possible to spare you such
a fate. Hut I wish you to understand,
realize fully, how difficult my own po
sition is. I do not hid you hope; only
pray, and, above all, retain your cour

dare venture no pledge. Rut I be
seech you not to break down, not lo
exhibit open fear. In any event our
tlst effort should be to awaken con
fidence in the minds of our captors,
and arrive at a frank understanding
between ourselves. Lady Darlington,
will you be guided in this by my
judgment?"
"Oh. I wish to believe." she sobbed,
only half aloud. "I need some one,
some one in whom I feel confidence,
in whom I may repose faith. I beg
of you not to consider me weak, a
nerveless creature, but this situation
is intolerable. I will endeavor lo do
what you ask. I will strive to be
brave, helpful, appreciative. I I think
you are what you say. See, I give you
my hand in promise."
I clasped it instantly within both
my own, bending low above the white
I deeds of the worid-the search after I fi"S?rS' ,n.,y ".V.8 S !n " rcaolye-
i reasure."
"Treasure!" she gasped, thoroughly
bewildered. "Where do you propose
going to search?"
"Far south., into the Antarctic"
The expression on her face was niti-
1 a.-ked. sizing him up in the J ful. yet I stood helpless to comfort.
"Merciful God! And you actually
mean to bear us with you into that
forsaken sea of ice? Oh. surely you
jest, you seek to frighten; you cannot
be earnest in such act of cruelty.
Whom can I believe? What caa I
hope? You have told me you wore
the captain of this crew of buccaneers,
and yet you say you can accomplish
nothing with them to forward our re
lease. Then take me to those who
can! Let me beg upon my knees for
metcy. Surely, surely we arc of no
value to you In your search after
treasure. We are only weak, helpless
women. Think of what this must
mean to me. and lie merciful."
There -vas no trace of tears in her
eyes, but it was the white, agonized
face, the unconsciously outspread
arms of appeal, that smote me. I felt
all my limbs tremble, my lips falter,
as 1 made swift response.
"I-ady Darlington, believe me, I
have no desire except honestly to
serve you. The actual truth is. I have con
sented to retain what is a purely nom
inal command of this vessel, with no
other purpose except that such out
ward authority yields me some op
portunity to assist and protect you.
Otherwise I would spurn the whole
affair and defy these outlaws to do
their worst. It was a deplorable ac
cident that brought me here and
placed me in this situation. Prac
tically I am as much a prisoner on
board as yourself. Later, If the op
portunity ever be given, I shall relate
you my story, and then, perhaps, you
will appreciate how perfectly helpless

single, helpless man? They are armed,

and our glances met.
"What is it you first desire of me?"
"Breakfast has been prepared, and
is now awaiting us in the cabin." I an
swered, knowing well that some form
of action must strengthen her more
quickly than any further talk, "and
I wish you lo join us at tin tabic ex

voyage."
"I know the food will choke me.
Does Celeste sit with us?"
"I believe you would prefer having

not feel quite so much alone."
"I should like it; it was most
thoughtful upon your part. Shall

"With the exception of the first offi

It was evident plainly enough that
she shrank from the ordeal, the deli-
CHAPTER XII.
In Which I Endeavor to Assert Au
thority. I was on deck again at noon, and
shot the sun, returning below to work
out our position. The Sea Queen still
held closely to her course, almost di
rectly west, and, realizing my helpless
ness, I forebore asking useless ques
tions. Indeed. I was secretly pleased
that Tuttle still held to that point of
the compass, for we were now In the
direct path of Australian commerce,
and hence much more likely to raise
a sail at any moment man u we
veered farther to the southward. If
any such vessel appeared I had de
termined to pit my strength against
the crew, even to the point of physical
danger.
At one o'clock Dade called the
women, and soon the four of us were
seated at table again. My lady's man
ner weighed upon my spirits, which
had been none of the lightest before
her appearance. I felt profoundly that
the faint influence my previous words
had inspired within her mind had al
ready evaporated; that she now held
me as at one with the remainder of
the yacht's crew. I arose as they re
tired from the table, but received no
reward of recognition from her averted
eyes. Feeling deserted, almost hu
miliated. I smoked my pipe alone on
deck under the lee of the cabin. Rut
it was perfectly useless loitering there,
with no duties to perform, and the sea
all about bare to the far horizon. De
sides, some sailor instinct told me a
storm was brewing yonder to the
northward which might keep me upon
the bridge all night, so, In preparation
for such a possibility, I went below
and lay down in my bunk. I was a
long time getting asleep, finally drop
ping off only to be aroused by the
rattling of dishes when Dade arranged
the table for the last meal of the day.
De Xova was pacing the bridge and
emerged from the companion. I could
not see the seaman who hailed, the
mist held so thick, and his words
seemed like a weak echo.
"Sail, almost directly ahead, sir."
"W'ereaway?" asked De Xova. peer
ing anxiously forward. "I can seo
nossiug. Fo'c's'l zare you see zo
ship?"
"Xothln' in sight from here, sir."
The male stared up into the vapor
overhead.
"Ware was it you see it, you fellow
on ze foreyard?"
The odd echo of a voice came back
out of the sky.
"I only caught her through a hole In
the fog, sir, one point off the weather
bow." i
With a swift bound I was up the
steps to the bridge ar-d beside the
second officer, recklessly determined
to assume command. Re.'ore he clearly
realized my presence I jangled the
bells in the engine room.
"Hold her steady as the is." I said
sternly to the fellow grasping the
wheel.
De Xova wheeled ami faced me, his
black eyes full of sudden anger. j
"W'at ze hell you mean?" he ex-1
claimed, so surprised he stuttered. "I
was officer of ze deck."
"And I am commanding the yacht.
Mr. De Xova." I retorted quickly,
pushing back his hand from the signal,
"I propose speaking that vessel yon
der, and trans-shipping our passengers.
Port a little, my man no. port, you
fool! now hold her so; steady."
De Xova grasped my arm. his fingers
like steel, but 1 broke away, pressing
in between him and the rail.

Some three hundred years later
Lawrence Leach, a direct lineal de
scendant of this surgeon to royalty,
decided to come with his wife Eliz
abeth, and his sons Robert and John,
to America. -
He went into farming and milling.
and became a planter on a large scale.
His mills were where Reverly at
present noted as President Taf t's sum
mer home now stands.
Lawrence left two sons in England
Richard and Clement. But Clement
came here ten years after his father,
and married Ann Fuller of Salem.
Robert, one of the sons who came
here with his father, was one "of the
founders of Manchester, Mass. Sev
eral of his descendants were seafar
ing men, and their roving lives led
them into adventure and excitement.
One of them, Richard, was at Carta
gena when the British took the town
In 1706; and his son Benjamin was
at Lisbon when the great earthquake
of 1745 killed about 40.000 persons.
Benjamin's son Ezra was In the army,
and then a lieutenant In the navy In
the revolutionary war.
Lawrence had another son, Giles,
born after his parents reached this
country. It is estimated that he has
descendants to the number of 10,000
and over.
Giles was born at Salem. He mar
ried Ann Xokes of Weymouth, and in
1664 settled at Bridgewater. There
he purchased one of the 46 shares of
the 1,000 acres bought some ten years
earlies from Massasoit father of the
great King Philip by Miles Standlsh.
There is a big branch of the family
In New Jersey, and of it Joslah Gran
ville Leach, lawyer and genealogist,
who first suggested that June 14 be
set aside as "Flag Day," is the most
noted member to-day.
There were a few other early
Leaches in this country, but most of
the great family here is sprung from
the single forefather, Lawrence. The
favorite Christian names among the
Leaches have been Hanna, Susanna.
Xokes, Joseph, Giles, Ann, Sarah and
David. The only Leach registered as
an officer of the Continental army in
the revolution is Simon, of Massachu
setts, who was a first lieutenant, but
other Leaches served as privates.
One of the most noted Leaches on
this continent In recent years was
the late William Turnbull Leach, of
Canada. He was born at Berwick-on-Tweed,
Scotland, in 1805. He was or
dained a Presbyterian minister, and
later joined the Church of England,
and was sent to Montreal, where he
became archdeacon. Not only was he
an eminent churchman, but he was al
so a noted educator in McGill univer
sity. The arms already referred to are

Mr. Brown's Remarks Quickly Brought
Wi'e Back from Borderland.
"William, dear," feebly called the in
valid wife, who was supposed to be
near'.ng the end of her earthly career.
"Yes, darling." answered the sorrow
ing husband. "What is it?"
"When I am gone," said she, "I feel
that for the sake of the motherless lit
tle ones you should marry again."
"Do you really think it would be
best, darling?" asked the faithful Wil
liam. "Yes, William. I really do," replied
the invalid. "After a reasonable
length of time you should seek the
companionship of some good woman."
"Do you know, my dear?" said the
husband, "that you have lifted a great
burden from my mind? Now, there is
that charming Widow Jones across the
way. she has acted rather friendly
toward me ever since you were taken
would do her best to lessen my grief."
"William Henry Brown!' exclaimed
the female whose days were supposed
to be numbered, as she partly raised
herself upon the pillow, "if you ever
dare Install that redheaded, freckled
faced, squint-eyed hussy In my shoes.
I'll I'll " And then she fainted.
But the next day Mrs. Brown was
able to sit up, and two days later she
was downstairs.
The Jenks family in America came
from England; but the name came
from Wales, so probably the first
Jenkses in England came also from
that country. Jenks is one of the
score or more names that are derived
from John and is the welsh form for
the phase. John's son.
John has been a favorite name with
English speaking peoples, as well as
with all the rest of the world and
from time immemorial there have
! been so many Johns that it has been
necessary to qualify them in some
way to distinguish them from each
, other. The many kings who bore the
name of John were surnamed the
Fearless, "the Bold." "the Constant."
and so forth, according to their char
acteristics or appearance. And so It
became necessary to give the Johns
among the ordinary run of humanity
their names. Tho little ones called
Little Johns, those who owned big
apples were called Applejohns and so
on through the whole list Upjohn.
Michlcjohn. Jennings, Janes. Jones.
Joanes. Jenkyn. Jinkins. Jenkinson
and half a dozen others. And the va
rious sons of these various Johns,
called Johnson. Jenson, Janson and in
Wales Jenks.
Just when the Jcnckcs or Jenks
family was established in England no
body knows. Joseph Jenckes. who
was born In 1H02. established the
family on this continent; but not very
much is known of him before he came
to America. He lived at Hammer
smith, not very far from London and
when he was 41 years old he took a
ship to Massachusetts. This was In
1G43; two years later he is first heard
of at Lynn, working as a blacksmith
in the iron works there.
Joseph was married before he left
England and had several children.
The descendants of these children re
tained the spelling of the name which
Joseph himself preferred Jenckes.
They settled In Rhode Island, where
they are still flourishing. So really
the Jenckes family and the Jenks
family in the United States are de
scended from the same ancestor and
are only two branches of the same
family.
Joseph was married a second time
and when he and his wife. Elizabeth,
died they left five children: Deborah,
William. Samuel. John and Daniel.
These children spelled their name
Jenks. They all married and had
children and all became valued and
respected citizens in the regions
where they settled down.
Daniel, the youngest son, was the
best known of the Jenks of his generation.
John of the third generation held a '
captain's commission in the militia.
He was the son of Joseph's son John ; ,
he was thrice married and was
blessed with 19 children. One of
these many children was named Sam
uel and was born In 1732. Samuel
lived at different times at Lynn. New
ton. Boston. Medford and Cambridge.
Samuel's son William, who was born
at Newton. Mass., and educated at
Harvard college, became a minister.

Specialty of Blind Physician.
There is at least one physician In
New York who manages to do excel
lent work and maintain himself well
without the use of his eyes. He is
totally blind.
He has chosen for his specialty dis
eases of the chest, into which of course
the best eyes in tbe world couldn't
see. One of the compensations of na
ture has given him unusually acute
hearing, which is especially valuable
In his practice. His ears can find out
more about the lungs of his patients
than those of most seeing men.
Youthful Efforts.
Writing in what he supposed was
the English language, a Bombay boy
described his school as it appeared by
moonlight. "And we bewholed the
hole phenomcron of heavens and stars
and the School sticking reflected up
side down in the pond erected by our
worthy Collector.' At the close of a
description of the schoolmaster an
other lad wrote: "He was a stern
laccd pedd legos" Some amusing ex
amides of schcolLoy language are
lound in essays. For instance: "The
sight of the garden transposes all mis
eries of soles:" "The sit of thunder
strikes the amazing '. "f thr at
looker;" "The weather of l'.elgaunt Is
congenially felicitous to Europe
Peons," and "This museum ;s full of
dead corpses and such other beauti
ful things." Another gem is: "Our
collector checks the population." and
a student with a taste for epigram re
marks: "Taxation is vexation."
