CHAPTER VI: THE FIRST STEP
13/33

So you can't do it nohow ?" The old man shook his head, and the sailor was just turning off when Frank went up to him: "Will you please wait a moment?
Can I speak to you, sir, a minute ?" he asked the old man.
The naturalist went into his shop, and Frank followed him.
"I can stuff birds and animals, sir," he said.

"I think I really stuff them well, for some which I did for amusement were sold at ten shillings a case, and the man who bought them of me told me they would be worth four times as much in London.

You will find me hard working and honest.

Do give me a chance.
