"I presume you know best." "You can bet I do. And now I'd like to meet old Graham." "I'll take you right up no, I can't. Here comes a customer. But you just go through that door and upstairs; he'll be in the laboratory the front room and he knows all about you. I'll join you just as soon as Tracey gets back."
Tracey met him as soon as he stepped on the deck, which was covered with loose sticks of tobacco, ship biscuit, bags of rice, etc. the present intended for the relatives of the dead men which were being passed over the side into the other boat, where the eager, excited Tebuan people received every article with shouts of approval.
