Before I had gone far I heard a murmur of voices, and then saw a sliver of light from the jamb of a door. There was a conversation going on in the captain's room, but I could not distinguish the voices. I went on to the forward end of the superstructure and discovered a port-hole in the captain's cabin partly open, and by going up three steps of the bridge-ladder I had a partial view of the room.

"Hold I would not have that fellow drown himself for anything now!" Jasper ceased struggling.
"I'll keep a sharp look- out, and I'll hail you, sir, sharp enough, as soon as she heaves in sight on the horizon." "There!" exclaimed the skipper in an exultant tone, taking hold of the colonel's reluctant arm and placing it within his own, so as to lead him away and to give him the benefit of his support down the bridge-ladder.
