There's nothing I'd like better than a trip back with a pilot!" "That's so," said Harry; "I never thought of the pilot." "But are you sure he'll take you back ?" asked Rectus, while Tom Myers and his brother George looked very pale and anxious.
"Take us?
Of course he will," said Scott.

"That's one of the things a pilot's for,--to take back passengers,--I mean people who are only going part way.

Do you suppose the captain will want to take us all the way to Savannah for nothing ?" Rectus didn't suppose that, and neither did any of the rest of us, but I thought we ought to look up the captain and tell him.
"But, you see," said Scott, "it's just possible he _might_ put back." "Well, don't you want to go back ?" I asked.
"Yes, of course, but I would like a sail back in a pilot-boat," said Scott, and Harry Alden agreed with him.
