"A story of foolhardiness, madam, largely due to my difficulty in foreseeing issues." "Go an' tell Croaker an' Ringdo the whole business, an' let that crow an' swamp-coon 'tend to you." "Go in presently and see if she's done, and ask if she'll have some fruit pie or cake, and report if the tray is still on the deck.".

"No, I'm willin' to shake." Scroggie extended his hand. "I shall not be able to pay you anything this side my first command of the Minorca. If I hand you the sum of twenty-five guineas after my return, that is, when I am paid off[Pg 135] by Captain Acton, I believe you will not have much reason to complain, sir." It was during that prayer that Maurice, chancing to glance at the window, saw Billy Wilson's pet crow, Croaker, peering in at him with black eyes. Now, as Croaker often acted as carrier between the boys, his presence meant only one thing—Billy had sent him some message. Cautiously Maurice got down on all fours and crept toward the door. The emotion of an impassioned heart, the melody of a rich and manly voice were in his words, and no man, though he should hate the fellow for his wrong-doing, could have doubted his sincerity whilst listening to his speech. Add to this his superb figure, his handsome face glowing with feeling, the hereditary dignity of his demeanour; but these were expressions of his meaning which she would not raise her eyes to witness..
