His Highness apologized for his opposition, stating his objections of the season and the insecurity of the routes, but gave the order for the passports.
Such was my reasoning. One day at the conclusion of my lesson, my tutor said he had very, unpleasant news to break to me. It was this: That an examination would be held for civilians only, and that an order had been received stating that no seaman should be allowed to change his rating.

"That will be just the thing. We shall get a reply to-morrow."
She made some of the men furious by stating that they spoke so low they could not be heard.
