This statement is illustrated by a special map showing the position of this height of land across Eastern. Canada. It is stated that Whatever on-g `minus may be held as to the existence` of a definite relation between the oc-i curence of precious metals mineraliza-` tion andthis height of land it appears that the most important discoveries` have been made at `points close to its: existing position. It is considered that! as favorable prospecting conditions are; found along the exposures on the; height of land, prospectors are likely' to explore thoroughly these areas a- cross the eastern part of Canada. v _ . .

Somewhere betvwen Man- hasset Bay and Hempstead Harbor; Connemara Moore in deceptive fancy dress, planted in a brokendown--not to say up--<:ar in the company of two strangers obviously of nefarious call- ing, bent on criminal endeavor. For there could be no doubt about it: Mr. Pooch, of course,--with his fifty thou- sand dollars which Connemara could hear crackling in one of the more in- timate recesses of her costume-,-but alzo Mr. Whatever-his-name-was. A nice young man too. A little slow on the uptake, perhaps, although he had picked her up fast enough, Connemara . was forced to admit. Yes. a nice young man--a little less than Salt and more than Bing. which was probably just about the right combination--but a crook. a crook, Connemara reminded herself.

Power yachts in "fact, all forms `of marine endeavor--were a mystery to` Conne- mara, and this boat in particular seemed 'more mysterious than most. surely. At least Connemara did not suppose it customary for strangers to come aboard private yachts in the middle of the night and be greeted by `intoxicated little red-headed men with offers of non-existent. coffee, onions. and marmalade. But Connemara was tired. desperately tired, and so she sat, staring vacantly at some sort of do- cument under the cabin lamp setting` forth that one David Lacywas owner of the` power` boat Bloody Nuisance of New .York. Soon there was a sound of machinery at its deadly work--a clank- ing upforward seemed to be an anchor coming up.
