Constantine acquiesced calmly, and a few minutes later accompanied his mistress up the beach. As she passed Marsh's cannery, Cherry saw a tender moored to the dock, and noticed strangers among the buildings.
The cannery men had dwelt in peace and amity with one another. They had their own loosely knit organization, held together by the ties of financial interest.
