"Sea-sick! No, sir; I believe I never was sea-sick in my life."

āđ€āļāļĄ āļĒāļīāļ‡ āļ›āļĨāļē āđ„āļ”āđ‰ āđ€āļ‡āļīāļ™ āļˆāļĢāļīāļ‡ āļ–āļ­āļ™āđ€āļ‡āļīāļ™ Christy felt that the time for action had come. Taking his valise in his hand he joined the file of men, and cleverly inserting himself between a couple of them, he went on the deck of the Bronx without being challenged as to his right to do so. Doubtless Captain Battleton had reported that he had a prisoner on board, though he had not had time to tell the whole story of the investigation, which had probably been postponed to a more convenient time. Mr. Flint went forward to receive the seamen as they came on deck, and he ordered them to pipe below and leave their bags there. The oaths and epithets he used need not soil our page; but the prisoner seemed to be suffering more from his wrath than from his wound. "Yes; but I have no time to spare, and you must not stop to talk," replied Christy rather sharply. The lieutenant went to the ward room where the surgeon was waiting for him. Christy called out the skipper of the sloop, and walked into the waist with him. The octoroon was a large man, of about the size of the third lieutenant, and he could have made a good deal of mischief if he had been so disposed. "You are on board of the United States steamer Bronx, and I am the commander of her," replied Christy, desiring to encourage Michael Bornhoff to tell all he knew about the expedition in the Magnolia. "The Bronx is taking in provisions, stores, and ammunition. They say the captain has his orders, but I don't know about that."
