Both the old retired officers instantly stopped. "I agree with you, Acton: a fleet of men-of-war," said the Admiral.

Was she the Minorca? She was undoubtedly square-rigged, but the lenses of the comparatively feeble telescopes of those days could not determine before it fell dusk, whether she was rigged aft with square yards or merely with the mizzen and gaff topsail which made the Minorca a barque.
