"Thank goodness, Reardon," I heard the captain say; and directly after, as I was passing, Tom Jecks' voice was heard in the midst of a group of the Jacks. "Say, messmate," he said, "fancy, stripped and fists only, how many Chinese could you polish off?" "Dunno," said a voice, which I knew to be that of Billy Wakes, a big manly-looking young Plymouth fellow.
All the furniture was of a massive and old-fashioned pattern. A few minutes later, with face and hands washed clean collars, clothes neatly brushed, the two clear-eyed, manly-looking young fellows returned to the first floor. "I suppose this hotel is full of young men like ourselves, wondering what tomorrow will bring them, when they get before the sawbones," muttered Dan.
Five minutes later a tall manly-looking soldier came down the rugged track, with his face and hands torn and bleeding, and dropped upon his knees before his astonished wife and a group of half a dozen men who hurried up. "Oh, Joe," cried the woman, "what have you got there?" "Young shaver," panted the man. "Found big house yonder, half burnt. Five dead folk, and this here."
"Good-morning!" he said. "How's the wound? Kept you awake all night?" Pen explained that he had only just woke up. "Well, that means you are getting better," said the smuggler; and the boys scanned the speaker's handsome, manly-looking face.
There was small fear of the captain doing any further mischief; he was stunned into helplessness, and stood mute, trying to force himself to believe that the huddled heap of squalid misery was his very own son smart, manly-looking Alick Carnegy. Though the captain was thus helpless, Philip Price seemed to know exactly what to do, and how to do it.
Almost directly after, as Dick was arranging a fresh sheet of music on his desk, but watching the fair-haired, graceful girl at the same time, his heart suddenly gave a bound, for he saw the major approaching, with a handsome, manly-looking young officer, who, with a half-contemptuous smile, was listening to his companion's remarks.
Meyer's oily smile had indicated to the flustered captain that he had said too much, the door opened and admitted Rowland, pale, and weak, with empty left sleeve, leaning on the arm of a bronze-bearded and manly-looking giant who carried little Myra on the other shoulder, and who said, in the breezy tone of the quarter-deck: "Well, I've brought him, half dead; but why couldn't you give me time to dock my ship?
'But I was not a private, replied Sir Ferdinand. 'Well, anyhow there's a something about him. Nobody can deny he looks like a gentleman; my word, he'll put some of these Weddin Mountain chaps thro' their facin's, you'll see, says one miner. 'Not he, says another; 'not if he was ten baronites in one; all the same, he's a manly-looking chap and shows blood.
"Any more bosses here?" The second mate did not respond; but 'Pache's pistol sought him out, and under its influence, and his guttural, "I know you; get up," he followed his superiors. "Any more?" A manly-looking fellow stepped out of the group, and said: "You've got the captain and two mates. I'm bo's'n here, and yonder's my mate.
I helped make a hero once no, I didn't either; I helped make the golden setting after the rough diamond had shown its value. Miles Diston pulled freight on our road a few years ago. He was of medium stature, dark complexion, but no beauty. He was a manly-looking fellow, well-educated enough, sober, and a steady-going, reliable engineer; you would never pick him out for a hero.
