Croix." "I am happy to meet you, Mr. Cartright." "I have often heard of you, Captain Passford, and I am glad to see you in command of so fine and fast a steamer as the St. Regis, though I never heard of her before," added the executive officer of the St. Croix. "Of course you are aware that there is a steamer in sight to the westward of us."
Andy Malden seemed to hear Peter Cartright, as he had heard him in his father's cabin when a boy, and remembered for the first time in years the night he had promised the eccentric old preacher he would be a Christian a promise that had been drowned by the drum-beat of the old war days and the disappointment of a lifetime.
But with the morning light New York took on quite a different aspect. It proved to be not such a bad place after all.
