"Yes, ever so much. He's almost his old self again. He has quit smoking, you see, and he has promised me not to smoke until he is quite well again." Billy moved towards the door. "I'd best be gettin' home," he said, "I'm awful wet." Frank Stanhope turned slowly and held out his hands. "One might notice a man's ill-temper," said the Admiral, "if he were over you; but when he is under you—there used to be a saying in my day—it's in the power of an officer to ride down any man under him.".
