Astounding Stories of Super-Science, August 1930

He
was
so
absorbed
in
his
rage
that
his
talk
with
the
lighthouse
keeper
seemed
vague
in
his
memory,
afterward.
The
keeper
was
a
wizened
little
Welshman
from
the
Chibut
who
spoke
English
with
an
extraordinary
mixture
of
a
Spanish
intonation
and
a
Cimbrian
accent.
Bell
listened
heavily
and
spoke
more
heavily
still.
At
the
end
he
went
back
to
the
plane
with
a
spindle-shanked
boy
with
a
lantern
accompanying
him.
"All
settled,"
he
said
grimly,
when
Jamison
came
out
into
the
darkness
with
a
ready
revolver
to
investigate
the
approaching
light.
"We
get
a
boat
from
the
lighthouse
keeper
to
go
to
Punta
Arenas
in.
He's
a
devout
member
of
some
peculiar
sect,
and
he's
seen
enough
of
the
hell
Punta
Arenas
amounts
to,
to
believe
what
I
told
him
of
its
cause.
His
wife
will
look
after
Paula,
and
this
boy
will
hitch
a
team
to
the
plane
and
haul
it
out
of
sight
early
in
the
morning.
With
the
help
of
God,
we'll
kill
Ribiera
and
The
Master
before
sunset
to-morrow."
