illustration of quoted scene
เว็บไซต์เดิมพันฟุตบอลออนไลน์ Again the steamer darted ahead at a speed which would soon carry her beyond the reach of the musket ball of the soldiers. Christy still remained upon the bridge, observing the fort and all that was done on the deck of the Bronx. He directed his glass frequently at the barbette of the fort; but the prudent commander of the garrison had evidently concluded to confine his efforts to the casemates. At least one-fourth of his men had been disabled. In less than half an hour the two vessels were under way, and just at dark they were within hail of the flag-ship. "Very well; perhaps you had better answer the question;" and the captain pointed at Corny. "Who was your first lieutenant?" Christy crawled to the front of the berth, and thrust his head out into the stateroom in as natural a position as he could place it. When he had completed his toilet Christy looked at his watch, and was rather surprised to find that it was a full hour later than usual when the call bell had been rung. He went down-stairs, and found his mother and Florry very busy in the dining-room, setting the table. This was the man's work, and the young officer was astonished to see his mother and sister doing it. "If I did, you did not pick them up." "He said he believed you were bony fido commander of the Bronx, and he is ready to obey your orders. Mr. Flint had a talk with him while the first lieutenant was below; he talked to Boxie, and three more of the men, and he did it mighty sly, too, for the third lieutenant was on the deck all the time. There's eight bells, Massa Christy, and the second lieutenant will have the deck."
