“Gee whiz, no!” the other cried. “I reckon Dad would set the dogs on the Chief Engineer from the dam. He hates him worse than poison.” It was some Englishmen from the big coal steamer, and they were rowing straight toward the buoy, talking fast. Pshaw! how stupid it is when people talk English. Without waiting to say, “By your leave,” they took Johnny Blossom from the buoy, put him into their boat, and rowed directly to the steamship.

Later, when the working people had gone, there was a tremendous amount of solemn talk between Father and the Admiral and the other uncles. Johnny Blossom did not understand a bit of it, but stood beside his mother, who was still crying a little, though Johnny could not see that what they talked of now was anything to cry over. “Jeremias the wood-cutter is ill in bed, too,” he said suddenly. “If you only haven’t broken his wind, boy. Pretty risky—to ride him the way you have these last days.” Suddenly Nils, with a slyer look than usual on his sly face, went down into the cabin. A minute after he came stamping up again..
