People wanted to go from New York to San Francisco, and I don't know that they do want to go to Vera Cruz. But I will look at it, and you shall hear from me. The interview was over, and Mr Fisker was contented with it. Had Mr Melmotte not intended at least to think of it, he would not have given ten minutes to the subject.

He turned back. "Wait a minute, father, I'm going in. If Bear has a party upstairs in those boxes it'll make good copy." "It'll make a scandal, you mean," returned Francisco rather crisply. "You can't print the women's names." "Bosh!" the younger man retorted pertly. "Everyone's doing this sort of thing now. Come along, dad. See the fun."

This individual was Captain Aaron Porter, one of the San Francisco bar pilots, and he greeted Cappy with a respectful query after the old gentleman's health. "I don't feel very well," Cappy replied wearily. "I'm getting old, captain getting old."

I am very sorry, but much more so for him than for myself, for I, my dear friend, have cabled on to a man in San Francisco, who is one of the directors of the Y.C.C., to sell all my stock, which he has done at one hundred and two, and he is keeping the money until I come.
