Whatever may have been the thoughts in the Admiral's mind at that time it is certain that among the mortifications and regrets his son's conduct caused him, must be ranked the consideration that Mr Lawrence, had he governed his conduct with prudence, would have stood a very good chance of winning the hand of Lucy Acton.

"Ann's my girl, an' she said I could cut my 'nitials under hers if I wanted to take the chance." He was silent for a time. "Just as you like," he said at length. "If his comin' annoys you, dear, you tell him so." He paused. "See here, Pa," he cried, "I happen to know one er two things about Hinter that I don't like. He's the boss of at least two bad men, an' I guess maybe there's more in the gang, too." Captain Acton's eyes opened wide; the Admiral gurgled a nervous laugh..
