"I have met with several. To which did he refer?" "Ay," answered Pledge, "and I wondered what there was between ye to keep ye so busy in talk." "You are a sailor, sir, and so am I, and 'tis natural that we should both light upon the same scheme. But there is not the slightest occasion for you to sacrifice a farthing of your property, nor to post to London to-morrow to find a ship, some little schooner or other swift enough to enable you to be at Rio when the Minorca arrives.
