Dad did it for yer health.

Say, though, I can't have dealin's with a man that thinks me or dad or any one on the _We're Here's_ a thief.

We ain't any common wharf-end crowd by any manner o' means.

We're fishermen, an' we've shipped together for six years an' more.

Don't you make any mistake on that! I told ye dad don't let me swear.
