"But what became of Corny?" asked Colonel Passford, with no little anxiety on his face.

เว็บ แจก เครดิต ฟรี Corny politely saluted Mr. Flint, the acting commander of the gunboat. Mr. Galvinne was introduced, and there was plenty of bowing and formal politeness. Corny presented his commission and orders for the inspection of the officer in command, and for the present the formalities were completed. Corny was evidently in command of the Bronx; but Christy could not determine the position of Mr. Flint, and he watched his movements with intense interest for some time. "I do not, Paul; I think it wears upon me, though I am willing to do my duty wherever I am ordered." "Dave is a wise man," said the commander, after he had given a few moments to the consideration of the situation. "Did you learn his name?" asked Christy, greatly interested in what the officer was about to say. As soon as the steward had taken him to the steerage, Mr. Pennant made his report in full, even to the number and calibre of the guns at the fort, and including the cure he had wrought upon the Confederate soldier. Christy was amused at this last part of the narrative; but he had no time to waste in conversation. "If you will excuse me for making an indirect reply, captain, I did not come on board of the Vernon last evening," answered Christy, his smile becoming still more decided; and if he had not been on the quarter-deck of a vessel in service, he might have suspected that he was himself the victim of a practical joke.
