His hand clasped her hand more tightly.,"Oh, he'll soon get over it," laughed Billy. "We'll find him waitin' fer us farther on.","He proposes that you should take the vessel out to the West Indies and bring her home. He pays twelve pounds a month, and gives a commission on the earnings of the ship. What do you say?"，"No," said Hinter, startled at the directness of look and question. "I don't know."，"In other words, sir," continued Mr Greyquill, still addressing Captain Acton, "I beg to state that if I should be so fortunate as to help you in your trouble I desire no money reward, nor should dream of taking any."，"Eight o'clock will suit me very well.""And what do dogs and children think of you?" he asked, abruptly.

"I guess it would puzzle old Johnston to know our horse now, eh, Bill?","As I am quite convinced," said Captain Acton, "that Mr Lawrence has nothing to do with this business, and as I feel persuaded that the call made upon her is by some man or woman—for how are we to know the sex of the person who wrote that letter?—in whom her charity is interested, and whom she has been helping according to her wont in ways unknown to us, I shall devote the[Pg 193] afternoon as Sir William intends, to making enquiries in Old Harbour Town and about the wharves——","Are the terms pretty satisfactory?".
