One or two pariah dogs, hailing from nowhere, have been attracted to the camp, Salam has given them the waste food, and they have installed themselves as our protectors, whether out of a feeling of gratitude or in hope of favours to come I cannot tell, but probably from a mixture of wise motives.
Two of the three wounded bluejackets were injured seriously. We could see them stretched out under the gun. We were steaming around the Luckenbach at twenty knots while we were hailing: this in case the sub took it in her head to pop up again and catch us slowed down.
Burleigh had been shown into the major's hut, where a lot of mail was awaiting him. A bronzed subaltern had taken charge of Mr. Aide-de-camp Stone, and another of Loring.
