The boats were now lowered, each with a gun in the bows, well stored with provisions and tents for living in on shore, while the crews were well-armed, and were at once despatched to their several destinations.
Our fleet would then seem to threaten New York, and we should find, on our arrival, pilots for different destinations, and the necessary signals and counter signs.~ If Rhode Island should be the proper point of attack, of which I have no doubt, we would steer southward towards evening, and, putting about during the night, land at Block Island, and lay siege to Newport.
Thus, in a very few minutes, the ship was cleared; all the passengers were bowling along towards their several destinations; and in a few minutes I found myself safely deposited in "The Brooklyn," a fine large hotel in Bush Street, situated in the business part of the town, with dwellings interspersed amongst the business houses. It is not necessary to describe San Francisco.
But with the new system...the new system...there would not be even these abominable little civil wars...for that was what we had right here in our own country...no need to use up your gray matter bothering about European states.... He was so convincing that Alexina and Aileen thanked him warmly and went to their respective destinations lulled and comforted.
The tender Tuscaloosa, having been detained by a strong south-easter, got under way for the purpose of going to sea on the 14th instant, but anchored again a little distance from the Roman Rock lighthouse in consequence of thick fog prevailing. Their destinations are unknown. On the 16th instant, the Confederate States steamer Georgia, Commander Maury, anchored in this bay.
Pass along through that archway and greet the others." But we could not pass along. The medical watchdogs and mesdemoiselles the ambulance-drivers saw to that.

It was felt to be absolutely necessary that not only passengers, but carriages and goods, must be passed over as many lines as possible, at straight "through" to their destinations, with no needless delays, and without "breaking bulk." But how was this to be accomplished? There were difficulties in the way of through-booking which do not appear at first sight.
Now let us go ahead and get aboard the Cotopaxi." It was well on toward noon of that day before all the arrangements made were completed, and the several ships proceeded towards their respective destinations.
But Doctor Holiday cut short his nephew's somewhat ungracious speech by a quiet reminder that the car was here primarily for Tony's use, and the boy subsided, having no more to say until, having deposited the occupants of the car at their various destinations, he announced to his uncle with elaborate carelessness that he would take the car around to the garage.
There he read, so people said, until eleven sharp, when his lamp was extinguished. During or at the beginning of the vacation periods he usually departed for some unknown destination, destinations which, apparently, varied. He had been seen, hopelessly intoxicated, in Bayport, in Ostable, in Boston, once in Providence. When he returned he never seemed to remember exactly where he had been.
