The man swore and said something to his companion. "Hey, hold up! Want to sell part of them ducks?" he asked. Billy advanced in a crouching attitude.

After further endearments between this devoted father and his daughter, Captain Acton closed her cabin door and went on deck. Billy turned and came back slowly to where he sat. "Anse," he said. "I ain't wantin' to see you witch-chased, so I'll jest give you the tie an' collar an' say not a word to Croaker er Ringdo; an' if you'll tell me somethin' I want'a know I'll let you sleep with my rabbit-foot charm underneath your piller.".
