Presently, far away forward it seemed on board some other craft, so faint was the sound there came a bang, bang, bang! on the scuttle of the forecastle, and a hollow shout of "All hands reef tops'ls ahoy!" Up tumbled the "starbowlines," or starboard watch, and joined the "larbowlines" in the struggle with the elements. No more sleep that night for man, boy, mate, or master.
"Better take in them tops'ls, hadn't ye, skipper?" "Take in nothing!" snapped Code across the cabin table. "Any canvas that comes off this vessel between here and Freekirk Head blows off, unless we have passed all those schooners ahead of us. Haven't raised any of 'em, have you?" "Not yet, skipper; but we ought to by night," said Ellinwood as though he felt he was personally to blame.
