 As Tarzan and his guide had disappeared into the shadows upon the dark wharf1 the figure of a heavily veiled woman had hurried down the narrow alley2 to the entrance of the drinking-place the two men had just quitted.
 
Here she paused and looked about, and then as though satisfied that she had at last reached the place she sought, she pushed bravely into the interior of the vile3 den4.
 
A score of half-drunken sailors and wharf-rats looked up at the unaccustomed sight of a richly gowned woman in their midst. Rapidly she approached the slovenly5 barmaid who stared half in envy, half in hate, at her more fortunate sister.
 
"Have you seen a tall, well-dressed man here, but a minute since," she asked, "who met another and went away with him?"
 
The girl answered in the affirmative, but could not tell which way the two had gone. A sailor who had approached to listen to the conversation vouchsafed6 the information that a moment before as he had been about to enter the "pub" he had seen two men leaving it who walked toward the wharf.
 
"Show me the direction they went," cried the woman, slipping a coin into the man's hand.
 
The fellow led her from the place, and together they walked quickly toward the wharf and along it until across the water they saw a small boat just pulling into the shadows of a near-by steamer.
 
"There they be," whispered the man.
 
"Ten pounds if you will find a boat and row me to that steamer," cried the woman.
 
"Quick, then," he replied, "for we gotta go it if we're goin' to catch the Kincaid afore she sails. She's had steam up for three hours an' jest been a-waitin' fer that one passenger. I was a-talkin' to one of her crew 'arf an hour ago."
