"I hope the old pistol won't miss fire," whispered Redhand, as he observed that the wolf paused, evidently for the purpose of examining the priming. "I hope," added Bounce, "that the Injun won't miss his aim. He be'n't used to pistols." "Never fear," said March with a quiet grin.

"They're a-gittin' out the boats, sir," remarked John Buzzby, who, unable to restrain himself any longer, had crept upon deck at the risk of another reprimand; "and, if my eyes be'n't deceiving me, there's a sail on the horizon to wind'ard leastways, the direction which wos wind'ard afore it fell calm."
