"I cert'nly intend to," she responded with dignity. "I may have a slight supprise for you." "Oh, Florence, say not so! Say not so, Florence! Say not so!"

Cap'n Abe said. "Cap'n Am'zon taught me. Most old whalers knit. That, an' doin' scrimshaw work, was 'bout all that kep' 'em from losing their minds on them long v'y'ges into the Pacific.

Reaching a sequestered dell in a few minutes, Ravonino suddenly stopped and turned round with a calm air of satisfaction.
