"But the song in his mouth has not the moving sweetness papa gave it.",The ship in sight carried in those days a very unfamiliar rig. She was what is well known now as a barque. She was under all plain sail and showed many wings, and she lifted sails which Lord St Vincent when Captain Jervis was the first to introduce into the Navy, and Merchantmen, always quicker than Navy ships to adopt improvements or changes for the good, were using them when ships of the State, at least a good many of them, were still satisfied with the truck above the topgallant yard.,"Certainly, Sir William," said Captain Acton. "I shall rejoice to have you with me.","Did you say more tea, teacher?" Mrs. Keeler was at his elbow, steaming tea-pot in hand.,"Not yet," was the reply.，"She carried nothing but fore-and-aft sails on her mizzen-mast," said he.，"We got——" commenced Maurice, but Billy pinched his leg for silence.，Billy spit out the fox-tail. "Where's this feller Scroggie now?" he asked, in a business-like tone."I saw her come over the side, sir, but didn't know she had stopped," said the mate, with an expression which might have passed for incredulity in the sour, congenital curl of his lips.

They gently rolled the dead, or dying, man on to his back, and the nature of his injury appeared. He was clothed in white trousers, a light blue coat, and a shirt the front of which was ornamented by some light tracing like flowers. He was without a cravat, and his head was uncovered. The left side of his shirt was soaked in blood, and the singed hole through which the bullet had passed from the weapon whose muzzle he had pressed to his breast, was visible in the thick of the dark crimson dye. His face was marble-white. It wore an expression of torture. His lips were parted and grey. The eyelids were half-closed, and the whites of the eye only were visible.,"When the Stanhopes built their home on the farm, which was then mostly woods, old Scroggie behaved somethin' awful. He threatened to shoot Stanhope. But Stanhope only laughed an' went on with his cuttin' an' stump-pullin'. Scroggie used to swear he'd murder both of 'em, an' he was always sayin' that if he died his ghost would come back an' ha'nt the Stanhopes. Yes, he said that once in my own hearin'.,Captain Acton's face changed with the astonishment wrought in him by his daughter's words and manner of speaking, and instantly to his memory recurred the remark of his sister that, if Mr Lawrence was in love with Lucy, she was equally in love with him, though she made no sign save to the scrutinising eye of an old maid.,"I saw him.",Captain Acton smiled, and looked fondly[Pg 106] at his daughter, and said pleasantly: "And pray, my dear, what are Mr Lawrence's temptations to a voyage to the West Indies?","And what do dogs and children think of you?" he asked, abruptly.,"She has made no meal, then?","Gosh," cried Elgin Scraff, "there goes the bell! Come on everybody; let's get our medicine.","I have no piano in this cabin, sir," she answered, without raising her eyes. "And I have no heart to sing without music.",He led the way to the house, Maurice following meekly with the market-basket, eyes running tears and throat burning.,"Have you seen a letter," cried Mr Lawrence, "a broad piece of paper folded into four lying in the road?",Captain Acton listened to her with profound interest. He was greatly impressed and moved by his daughter's exhibition of traditionary genius. She recalled his wife, of whom he was passionately proud and fond. He had never imagined that Lucy had the[Pg 372] talent of an actress, but the dramatic character of her narrative and every point in her extraordinary relation convinced him that she was a born artist, and that accident had compelled her to reveal to herself gifts of power, perception, and imagination of whose existence she had been as ignorant as her father..
