"But you didn't see her, did ye?" Cobin asked eagerly. He went to sea again and did not return for two years, and when he arrived he came broken, to the grief and shame of his father. He had been court-martialled and dismissed his ship. His offence was singular and characteristic: he was in a foreign port, and at night-fall he walked to the quay to return to his ship.

"With your permission I shall tell him so, Daddy.".
