His legs were arched and at the same time crooked at the knees, so that he appeared to be stooping whether he walked or stood, and to complete the suggestion of his origin he had a trick of scratching himself like a monkey.

"Hallo!" was the answer from Captain Weaver. Apparently the boy did not hear the first question. "Mr. Ringold," he whispered, "I waited here to see you. The Sandtown fishermen are comin' to rob your orchard tonight." "Why, sir, of course I accept without hesitation, and feel most deeply obliged." "Why, sure we was, but we were stuck tight.
