Time you learned, then,” returned Eph Somers, “if you’re to stay aboard a submarine craft.” “Take this other man up with you,” again urged Truax. Eph Somers turned around to face him with a good deal of a glare. “What ails you, Truax? You heard the captain’s order. You’ll go with me.” “Don’t be too sure of that,” uttered Sam Truax, defiantly.

The Judge-Advocate announced that "the case was closed, and the court would be cleared for deliberation. "Before you open, Judge-Advocate," said Maj. Truax significantly, "I want to say something, not as a member of this court, but something between gentlemen, and I want to say it before we begin our deliberations, in order that it shall not be considered as part of them, or influencing them.

"I don't want to make it felt too much that I am boss here," Jack retorted, mildly. "At the same time, though, I'm held responsible, and so I suppose I'll have to have things done the way that seems best to me." Sam Truax turned to get his satchel.
