"That's Elgin Scraff and Tom Holt comin' to look fer us," cried Maurice. "Hello!" exclaimed the startled deacon. "Why, bless us, it's a boy! Who are you, and what do you want?" On his face stretched along the cabin floor, his arms extended, his right hand grasping the butt-end of a pistol, was the body of Mr Lawrence.

"Still begging of your honours' pardon," said Captain Weaver, "suppose the Minorca do back her topsail and we launch our boat; Mr Lawrence makes out his father and Captain Acton in the starn sheets. Will he stay to receive ye? Won't he fill on his topsail and be off?".
