They presented an entirely different appearance from what they did in their drabbled garments; for those who had supplied them with clothing had brought out their best clothes, and the three gentlemen seemed to be in condition to go to church. Lord Tremlyn hastened to the captain with extended hand as he stepped down upon the floor of the cabin.

In one of them they were invited into a small rear saloon, magnificently furnished, where they were presented by Lord Tremlyn to a Parsee gentleman. He was dignity and grace united. He was dressed in white throughout, except his cap, or turban, which was of darker material. He wore trousers, with white socks and slippers.

"Kindly pull up to her, and let me be sure of it." "That is easier said than done, sir. The first cutter has just picked up another man, and now she is pulling for all she is worth for the next one.

At her ordinary speed, the Guardian-Mother would arrive at Colombo at one o'clock the next day.
