"You will find him fully qualified in that, and in all else. A smarter seaman never trod shipboard." "He thinks you're guyin' him," said the other man. "How's he to know what you mean by 'fishin'-outfit?' He likely thinks you mean a rod and reel. Better push along and mind your own business. Next thing you're goin' to say is somethin' about 'shootin' a well,' and if Jacobs gets to hear of that kinder talk—" "Ay, that must be," exclaimed the Admiral, "even though Heaven should rain French men-of-war.".
