The taller man I had seen once before, the shorter, very many times--in Washington! "Yess," commented my old scientist calmly; "so strange! They go together." "Ah, you know them!" I almost fell upon him.
"Yess--last night.

The tall one iss Mr.Peel, a young Englishman; the other is Mexican, they said--Senor Yturrio, of Mexico.

He spoke much.
Me, I wass sleepy then.

But also that other tall one we saw go back--that wass Captain Parke, also of the British Navy.

His ship iss the war boat _Modeste_--a fine one.
