[Outward Bound by Oliver Optic]@TWC D-Link bookOutward Bound CHAPTER VIII 11/16
As these gentlemen have not been formally introduced, the "faculty" of the ship is here presented:-- Robert Lowington, _Principal_. Rev.Thomas Agneau, _Chaplain_. Dr.Edward B.Winstock, _Surgeon_. INSTRUCTORS. John Paradyme, A.M., _Greek and Latin_. Richard Modelle, _Reading and Grammar_. Charles C.Mapps, A.M., _Geography and History_. James E.Fluxion, _Mathematics_. Abraham Carboy, M.D., _Chemistry and Nat.
Phil._ Adolph Badois, _French and German_. These gentlemen were all highly accomplished teachers in their several departments, as the progress of the students during the preceding year fully proved.
They were interested in their work, and in sympathy with the boys, as well as with the principal. It was a very quiet time on board, and the crew were collected in little groups, generally talking of the sights they were to see.
In the waist were Shuffles, Monroe, and Wilton, all feuds among them having been healed.
They appeared to be the best of friends, and it looked ominous for the discipline of the ship to see them reunited.
