The captain was on his bridge, and Miss Hoggs heard him give orders to stop the engines and to man the lifeboats. Engineers and stokers came rushing up the grimy ladder leading from the engine room, shouting that the water had already reached the fires.
When Percy visited here he found them, he reports, "in good case and well lykeinge haveinge concealed their plenty from us above att James Towne beinge so well stored thatt the crabb fishes where with they fede their hoggs wold have bene a greate relefe unto us and saved many of our lykes."
Three years of weary sickness wasted her, without extinguishing a life apparently so fee- ble. Two years had these maidens watched and cared for her, and they began to weary, and finally to request the authorities to remove her. Mrs. Hoggs was a lover of gold and silver, and she asked the favor of filling her coffers by caring for the sick. The removal caused severe sick- ness.
The lifeboats near to hers were .lowered, but for some unaccountable reason no one had touched the one in which she was seated. "Thank God they are leaving my boat alone till the worst is over," she thought. And Miss Hoggs heard and saw dreadful things. It seemed to her that she was suspended over a hell.
"I tell you he is growing stiff and cold," said the poor wretch "the dead is no bed-fellow for the living For God's sake help to rid me of the corpse." "Ay, and get the credit of having done him as may be the case with, yourself, friend for he had some two or three hoggs about him"

He named this locality "Hope in faith, Coxen-dale" and proceeded to secure it with a series of forts which he named Charity, Elizabeth, Patience and Mount Malado. There was "a retreat or guest house" for sick people which was declared to be on "a high seat" with "wholesome air."
"Among those who were about her" was one witness well equipped to silence all tongues, abolish all doubts, set our minds at rest; one witness, not called, and not callable, whose evidence, if we could but get it, would outweigh the oaths of whole battalions of hostile Hoggs and nameless surgeons the baby.
Since then he mostly motored about by himself; but he was coming to Torwood, too, for the week-end; and I don't see why he should deliberately break his neck almost at the very door. I believe Hoggs I mean my cousin Howard was coming down specially to meet him." "Torwood Park doesn't belong to your cousin?" inquired March.
