"She carried nothing but fore-and-aft sails on her mizzen-mast," said he. "And thank him," twittered Miss Acton, "for the beautiful sermon he gave us last Sunday, and tell him I am looking forward to such another next Sunday." CHAPTER II A SHOWER OF FISH Billy drew in his breath hard. He fully intended that none of those straining ears should miss his answer.
