"How touchingly he sang 'Tom Bowling'!",Mr Eagle, whose views were undoubtedly in accord with Mr Pledge's, viewed his companion in acid silence.,"We hope to effect our end without bloodshed, my lord," said Captain Acton.,"By what, my dear?","Good night," he echoed.，"It don't seem right to wake boys up just to give 'em a whalin', Mary," he protested. "My Ma used to wake me up sometimes, but never to whale me. I'd rather remember—"，Billy threw back his head and laughed, the first hearty laugh he had known for days.

In a minute they grew more than intent: astonishment dilated them, and they were not without the sparkle of alarm. He rubbed his eyes, and removing his pipe from his lips strained his gaze once more at the shipping in the Harbour.

"Madam," said he softly, "after so lively a conversation with your Royal but unrevealed visitor, have you no word for me—no look——","The Aurora!" cried Captain Acton. "How nobly she sits! How her sharp bows eat into it! Does not she come along handsomely? What a slaver she would make! Nothing flying the British flag could catch her. I did not conceive her due before next Wednesday.
