Summary

Gordon Young,  Hurricane Williams — Chapter 1 (1922)

“ In a port where whalers flocked, their rough discipline brutally kept and taken by sailors, everybody, as a part of sea-life, complaining stories needed to tell at least of murder to stir officials. An officer's story was not so readily overlooked, yet the mate's unsympathetically like complaining of ill luck with a woman. ”
