g the money — and was resolved never to risk it again.”
“Not a spectator,” said the captain. “My country wouldn’t have suited him. Yes?”
“My mother has never touched the money till now. And now it was to have been laid out, this very next week, in Vans Damskie buying me a handsome share in our neighbouring fishery here, to settle me in life with Barn Kitty.”
The captain’s face fell, and he passed and repassed his sun-browned right hand over his thin hair, Women Puffer Jackets in a discomfited manner.
“Kitty’s father has no more than enough to live on, even in the sparing way in which we live about here. He is a kind of Vans Boots Men bailiff or steward of manor rights here, and they are not much, and it is but a poor little office. He was better off once, and Kitty must never marry to mere drudgery and hard living.”
The captain still sat Adidas Superstar stroking his thin hair, and looking at the young fisherman.
“I am as certain that my father Adidas ZX750 had no knowledge that any one was wronged as Vans Slippers to this money, or that any restitution ought to be made, as I am certain that the sun now shines. But, after this solemn warning from my brother’s grave in the sea, that the money is Stolen Money,” said Young Raybrock, forcing himself to the utterance of the words, “can I doubt it? Can I touch it?”
“About not doubting, I ain’t so sure,” observed the captain; “but about not touching — no — I don’t think you can.”
“See then,” said Unisex Young Raybrock, “why I am so grieved. Think of Kitty. Think what I have got to tell her!”
His heart quite failed him again when he had come round to that, and he once more beat his sea-boot softly on the floor. But not for long; he soon began again, in a quietly resolute tone.
“However! Enough of that! You spoke some brave words to me just now, Captain Jorgan, and they shall not be spoken in vain. I have got to do something. What I have got to do, before all other things, is to trace out the meaning of this paper, for the sake of the Good Name that has no one else to put it right. And still for the sake of the Good Name, Women Oversized Coats and my father’s memory, not a word of this writing must be breathed to my mother, or to Kitty, or to any Dame Adidas Sweatshirts human creature. You agree in this?”
“I don’t know what they’ll think of us below,” said the captain, “but for certain I can’t oppose it. Now, as to tracing. How will you do?”
They both, as by consent, bent over the paper again, and again carefully puzzled out the whole Męskie Vans Sk8-Hi of the Vans Low sneakers Men writing.
“I make out that this would stand, if all the writing was here, ‘Inquire among the old men living there, for’— some one. Most like, you’ll go to this village named here?” said the captain, musing, with his finger on the name.
“Yes! And Mr. Tregarthen is a Cornishman, and — to be sure! — comes from Lanrean.”
“Does he?” said the captain quietly. “As I ain’t acquainted with him, who may he be?”
“Mr. Tregarthen is Kitty’s father.”
“Ay, ay!” cried the captain. “Now you speak! Tregarthen knows this village of Lanrean, then?”
