Maurice peered out from behind a tree. "Well, I'll be jiggered!" he exclaimed. "It's our old sow. She's been lost fer nigh onto two weeks, an' Dad's been huntin' fer her everywhere."

The preliminary hail having been bawled—the two vessels lay close together, and those aboard one might hear the wash of the waters alongside the other, in the falls of silence—the person referred to by Captain Acton shouted: "I shall have much pleasure in complying with your request." "So far nothing's hove into sight, sir," said Mr Eagle. "On a golden, Indian summer day like this," she finished and closed her eyes as his arms went about her. Mr. Johnston smiled. "Very well.
