Pete jumped in beside him, and smothered his cries with a pillow. Ed and I pushed off, and climbed in over the bows. In a minute we were alongside the yacht. Mr. Daddles and Sprague jumped on board, and Pete handed Gregory the Gauger up to them. He had to drop the pillow to do this, and as soon as the little man’s mouth was uncovered he began his protests right where he had left off.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
