“Sometimes it does,” admitted John. “I’m principally worried for fear some boat will come along and take us away before we find it.”
“Let’s all go back to the cave and make another try at that code,” exclaimed Grant, springing to his feet.
“I’ve got to go in that water again before I do anything else,” said John. “It certainly is wonderful to-day.”
“All right,” agreed Fred. “One more dive.”
Three bodies flashed through the air and disappeared beneath the water with a resounding splash. A moment later and three heads came to the surface.
“Coming out?” demanded Grant, blowing the water from his nostrils and shaking the hair out of his eyes.
“I think I’ll take a little swim,” said John. “I’ll be out in a minute.”
“We’ll wait for you,” said Fred. “Don’t be long.”
“I’ll be right out,” exclaimed John as he struck out with long powerful overhead strokes in the direction of the open sea.
Grant and Fred clambered out upon the little ledge and began to put on the few pieces of clothing that they possessed.
