I remember him as if it were yesterday, as he came, plodding to the indoor. His sea chest following behind him in a hand barrow, a tall, strong, heavy man, his terry pigtail falling over the shoulder of his soiled blue coat, his hands ragged and scarred with black broken nails And a saber cut across one cheek, a dirty, livid white. I remember him looking around the cover and whistling to himself as he did so then breaking out in that old sea song that he sang so often afterwards. 15 men on a dead man's chest, yo ho ho! And a bottle of from in the high old, tottering voice that seemed to have been tuned and broken at the capstan boss. Then he rapped on the door with a bit of a stick like a hand spike that he carried, and when my father appeared, called roughly for a glass of rum, this, when it was brought to him he drinks slowly, like a connoisseur, lingering on the taste, and still looking about at the cliffs and about our signboard. It's just a handy cove, says he, at length, and a pleasant Slattery at a grog shop. Much company, mate. My father told him no very little company. The more was the pity
