Описание: This is in the long-ago, or, to be exact, in July, 1759. The new brig Friendship, not a fortnight off the stocks, is lying in her home harbor of Whitehaven, being fitted to her first suit of sails. Captain Bennison is restlessly about her decks, overseeing those sea-tailors, the sail-makers, as they go forward with their task, when Mr. Younger, the owner, comes aboard. The latter gentleman is lowland Scotch, stout, middle-aged, and his severe expanse of smooth-shaven upper-lip tells of prudence, perseverance and Presbyterianism in even parts, as traits dominant of his character. Dick, says Mr. Younger, addressing Captain Bennison, yell have a gude brig; and mon ye suld have a gude crew. Therell be none of the last in Whitehaven, for what ones the agents showed me were the mere riff-raff of the sea. Ill even go to Arbigland, and pick ye a crew among the fisher people. Arbigland repeats Captain Bennison, with a glow of approval. The Arbigland men are the best sailor-folk that ever saw the Solway. Give me an Arbigland crew, James, and Ill find ye the Rappahannock with the Friendship, within the month after she tears her anchor out o Whitehaven mud. And so Mr. Younger goes over to Arbigland.
