He was too big to follow them in that narrow channel behind the island.

ieeimg. Never before in all their lives had they been where there wasn't plenty of deep water all around them so that they could swim in any direction. Now they felt, I suspect. very much as YOU and I would feel in a narrow pu- sage between high walls, not know- ing if we could get out at the other end. i

on one side was a long island. on the other side were marshes of the mainland. Behind them was the harbcr into which they had been driven by their deadly enemy. a K11- ler whale whom they called the Terrible One. He was too big to follow them in that narrow char.- nei behind the island. The water in the channel wasn't deep enough for him, so he was waiting in the deep water of the harbor for them to come back. as he was sure they would have to.

would they.'or wouldn't they? That was the question. Barker the Seal, who was excitedly watching from the shore of the island won- dering. Graywing the Gull and his fellow Gulls. following overhead and screaming as it trying tc scream their heads off. wondered. Truth to tell. Pilot himself, so bold- ly. so daringly le lng them, won- dered. There had been a passage around that island opening into the open ocean at the other end He knew because once when he was young and much smaller he had been through it. But that was a long time ago and now that pas- sage might not be deep enough for them to get through. Almost as soon as they were in the channel one of those behind. rushing ahead wildly in his fright. had left the deep water Ind gene aground. Such an exciting scene as followed! Never had Barker or the Gulls seen anything like it. He thrashed and floundered and sent. the water flying in sheets in all directions. Fortunately for him he was not badly aground. and suc- ceeded in getting back into deeper water after a brief struggle. But it frightened his already badly fright- ened companion still more. with the result that aocn another was in trouble on a mud flat. This one. too, got, off after a -while. for the mud was soft and the flat was narrow. Two got jammed in a narrow part of the channel. Such a time as there was then! No wonder the Gulls screamed and Barker the seal barked. Only Pilot and the older ones kept their heads, and by keeping in the middle of the channel. swim- ming slowly and watchfu-lly. kept out of serious trouble. Not. that they were not frightened and worried. They were, They were in suspense. rather dreadful suspense. hoping but nct sure that they twould be able to get back to the ocean. If they could not get through that other outlet they were trapped in- deed. It was a dreadful thought.
