Thomas and a lady, presumably his wife, were ashore. On the Ashlade's raised cabin cover was a baby. Two patriarchal-looking boys were respectively at the Ashlade's and Lechton's tillers. The lady was attending to the horse. The water in the lock rose gradually to a higher level. "Hold them tillers straight!" yelled Thomas. At which point I saluted him.
The water pouring in from the northern sluice was forcing the tillers violently against the southern sluice gates. "If them boys," said Tom Blake in an overwrought voice, "lets them tillers go round, it's all up with my pair o' boats. Lemme do it, you " The rest of the sentence was mercifully lost in the thump with which Thomas's feet bounded on the Ashlade's cabin-top.
