This soon reduced the intercourse to a few wavings of handkerchiefs, and kissings of the hand, in which all the Drewetts came in for a share. As for Lucy, she walked aside, and I seized the occasion to get a word in private. "What am I to do with the sloop?" I asked. "It will soon be necessary to come to some decision."
