You had better have your back sheathed, and your head coppered, and your feet shod, and make out your log for California for life!" or else something of this kind "Before you get to Boston the hides will wear the hair off your head, and you'll take up all your wages in clothes, and won't have enough left to buy a wig with!" The flogging was seldom if ever alluded to by us, in the forecastle.
