They'll be on the watch, and if they see a boat's crew land, they'll do nothing to-night." "Then what do you propose ?" "Don't laugh at me, sir, and call me stupid; but I've been thinking that if I could be set ashore, dressed as one of the boys, I might go about unnoticed.

And if they were moving the cargo, I could see where they took it, and then you could land the men." "Oh, you'll be an admiral before I shall, boy.

That's it; but will you do it ?" "If you'll let me, sir." "Let you?
Here, Mr Gurr, help Mr Raystoke, and--stop though; I don't think I can let you go alone, my lad." "If I don't go alone, sir, it's of no use." "You are right.

Then we'll risk it; but if the smugglers kill you, don't come and blame me.

Have the boat ready, Mr Gurr.
