Tuttle serene and pampered on the deck, and Hetty Cronney desolate on the wharf! She pronounced verdict. "It's terrible that's what it is!" Mr. Tinneray with great sagacity said he'd like to show Mabel Tuttle her place then he nudged his wife and chuckled admiringly, "But yet for all, Hetty's got her tongue in her head yet say, ain't she the little stinger?"
