He went to the bridge at once, and directed the officer of the deck to make the course south-west by south. Everything was going well on deck, and Mr. Pennant had proved that he was a competent officer. "I was sick, and I wished to be as near the Vernon as possible.

"I have not the slightest objection to the presence of as many officers as you may choose to call in," added the invalid. 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.
