Billy had heard and understood. When his dad sent him one of those "up and away" signals he never questioned its significance.

It was about half an hour after daybreak: the sun had risen, and the flood of brilliance lay broad upon the sea in the east. Captain Acton was dressing in his cabin, when his door was rapped upon, and Captain Weaver, whose manner was full of excitement, reported a sail in sight, right in the centre of the horizon betwixt the two ships.

The horizon was a clear line, a sweep of crystal against the blue crystalline heaven it brimmed to. "A small convoy, sir, I think," said Captain Weaver. You better be up and away! The girl clapped her hands in joy at the story. "And you let him think he had the delirium tremens! Oh, Billy, is there anything you wouldn't do, I wonder?".
