At the point where the shore curved abruptly he lifted his hat and waved to the man and girl watching him from the pier. "The whole job of the ship sailing before her time is a mystery to me, sir," said Captain Weaver. Jim shook his head. "Promised Billy Wilson I'd sit with him," he said.

Billy puckered up his lips, but his effort was a failure. "You try, Maurice," he said, "I can't jest keep the hole in my mouth steady long enough t' whistle."
