"No, teacher, you best stay right here; you can't help me any an' I may have to bring them two shooters ashore in the punt." "It's good to see you too, Maurice. You got my code message, didn't you?" "But the sleeping berths are very little, and I am certain that the motion of the ship——" She shook her head and smiled, and then saying, "Good morning, Mr Eagle.
