THE GAVE OF AVARICE

By CLINTON ROSS

“Here the writing stops,”” Fentoz gaid. ‘‘But there is one line more in another hand:

“The devil has the soul of him who w known to the world as Miguel Santos.’

‘*What a fool that old chap was, any-

way!’’ said Dorden. ‘‘With all that money he might have had a time fit for a king without botherin himself about the hereafter.’’

‘‘With all that money,’’ I said. ‘*Do you suppose it’ now ?”’ ‘*‘Do you spose it is? It fairly makes my mouth water,’’ Dorden obs ‘If it were there!’’ said the pale faced Fenton. ‘‘I’ve given up so much—to get money.”’ ‘‘No more than I,’”’ **No more than I,”’ But I

parchment which Dorden was holding,

it, then? Should we get the gold with

;

‘‘The paper’s back, Fenton!’’ I cried. Fénton turned the paper, scared,

while Dorden sent the greasy pack scat tering.

‘*Read it—for God’s sake, read it! Can you?’’

Fenton read in a low voice:

“It’s gospel truth, then,’’ said Dor- den.

“That he was cursed!”’ starting.

‘Blank the curse!’’ Dorden replied ‘‘That treasure is there!’’

‘*Yes, it may bé there,’’ said Fenton rising.

‘‘But the old road the fellow = of,’’ Dorden said. ‘‘Haven’t you read of it in ‘em papers?’’

“It is the path to the lIeftof th monastery,’’ said Fenton.

‘‘We'll go there at said Dorden, rising. ‘‘We'll divide.’

“Tf it’s true,’’ said L.

‘‘It’s got to be true,’’ Dorden retort- ed. ‘‘My luck has got to change son time. ’”’

Fenton sat there, the from his pale face.

We started out after breakfast stealthily, as if we were on some thiev- ish errand. The manner of thieves seemed to fall to us easily.

At first the search promised well. for the old road by the monastery was a marvelous piece of engineering for its day and time. Nature, so forceful in Mexico after all the years, had not de- stroyed man’s work. So anxiously we followed that splendid and forzotter

in Sonora, ran out before him, yet D

den persisted, and again we were favor ed, for we came directly, with scarcely an error, on the opening. Dorden ! brought a machete and now ] ed LO bushes away, and then we

heard a low, distant dued thunder.

‘The river!’’ Fenton cried at this re- peated evidence. But what we saw was wraging, for the cave stop- ped at about 20 feet. It was walled by lichen covered. A hundred

vriggling creatures were on the surface. But here was indeed what Miguel Santos, dead a full century and a half, had promised, and there was the iron door. rusted and discolored, so that we wondered if indeed it would answer to the pressure on the upper left hand cor- ner, wondered if in all the years the treasure had not been taken. Again it was Dorden making the trial, while we stood waiting. The road to riches—to the cave of Santos’ avarice—seemed easy indeed.

The air that swept our faces was sin- gularly fresh and sweet, due to the wn- ters that we heard now in a deafening roar. Then the rush of air seemed to stop. Dorden had no difficulty in light- ing the candle, which gave a feeble glare in the vast place.

‘‘Careful,’’ he said as he advanced, and we saw we Were on the edge of a vast precipice, with the undistinguish- able mass of the roaring river far, far below. We all three turned about, our faces blanching, and then a strange thing occurred. A pale white light be- gan to be diffused. I could not account for it then, though now I understand that the shifting sun had reached some opening along the course of that under- ground river. It was a vast stream in- deed, a sheer fallof many hundred feet, as we now were able tosee. The farther shore we could not tell in that half light. Now it had become almost like early twilight. But it seemed to me ius broad as the Hudson. Whence did it and whither were those waters carried in their mad whirl? But I was interrupted by Dorden’s cry. He was pointing toward a projecting cliff, which hung out far over the water. It Was approached by a narrow neck, so that it formed a peninsula jutting into the air above the roaring waters. The space might have had a diameter of 50 feet. But what we saw astounded us even in our expectations, now raised by the success of every step of the search. On this space were above ascore of iron chests, their lids all opened, revealing in the increasing light the sheen of dia- monds, the blue and green of sapphires and the glow of rubies. They lay there beckoning, as Miguel Santos had left them. From many of the chests was | the absorbing yellow glare of golden coins, so many that in the moment we could not calculate their number. Yet we knew that here was wealth stich as

Sroesus’ incalculable riches of gold and precious stones. But why had they been

I don’t believe the others even ques- tioned. Now that we could see quixe plainly Dorden cast the candle down into the depths and almost ran toward the treasure. I saw him dizzily rushing along the narrow passage and kneeling before one of the chests and crying out like a maniac. Fenton was close behind him, gloating over the jewels. As I fol- lowed he picked from one of the chests a piece of manuscript. oe

“What is this?’ he said, holding it up, for the light now was strong enough for us to read by it.

“More of Santos’ words!"’ he added.

“Look at the gold, not papers!’’ Dor den cried. But the instinct of the scholar mastered Fenton even in that moment.

‘‘Miguel Santos’ writing.’’ he said, and slowly he rendered “Gold thou comest by dishonestly shalt

curse thee always, for sin must be penance Fool, thou shalt perish with thy gold and thy precious stones. The punishment of God on the miser is that he shall not keep what he gioats on.”’

‘Fool!’ came Dorden’s voice, hissing over our shoulders. I looked at him al- most fearfully, for there was a maddish glare inhis eyes. Suddenly, like a fiend. a threw himself on us beth. “‘It shall be mine,”’ he cried, ‘‘only mine!’ The onslaught earried us all three near the edge, Fenton andl struggling to hold him back. Im some way—G knows how—I disentangled myself and turned just at theedge. My companions were not there, but from afar was & lit- tle splash, while @ voice cried out in horrid despair. It indeed may have been my strained imagination. and yet in- deed it may have been Dorden’s.

As for the riches of the cave of avarice, I would not touch them even for the comfort of restitu- tion to those I robbed.
