Grace sank to her knees.
"Thank God!" she murmured. "Rescued at last!"
A boatswain and five sailors came up, looking with interest at Armitage and Grace.
"Who are you?" cried out the boatswain, as they approached.
Armitage went forward.
"We were wrecked on the Blue Star Steamship Atlanta, which went down in a hurricane on those reefs about six weeks ago."
"Passengers?" asked the boatswain.
Armitage hesitated. Then, pointing to Grace, he said:
"This lady was a cabin passenger."
"And you?" demanded the man.
