"I was trying this moment to tempt her to take a voyage to the West Indies by a poor description of some of the wonders which are to be met in the trip."，This was deliberately delivered and clearly heard, and, with a flourish of his hand, Lord Garlies stepped back.，"She looks to me, sir, a worn-out bit of a brig about a hundred tons.
