were desperate characters and fully that there was not power enough on board to overcome them As I half the crew and we knew that the other half could not be depended upon to resist them with Finally the captain told them he would go and see the Commodore and the men ut forward swearing that they would per return to duty let come what would When the captains boat was ready ho asked me to accompany him as the first demonstration of mutiny had been made We found the Commodore just sitting down to dinner and ho invited us join him and while the meal was in the Captain told his story listened very attentively and at its lie said with a smile right Captain I guess thero be much trouble I will come on board during the afternoon and see if I nt straighten things out for you After this the Commodore turned upon other subjects and when a and smoked our pipes we returned to the vessel And Commodore Porter was not far be- bind us At two oclock bo came board accompanied by a lieutenant and twenty being drawn up on the starboard side of the quarterdeck in two ranks mustering upon the opposite side all was quiet the Commodore gunboat lay in the ilia and I was Our captain was a volunteer

to a poor fellow who stood by that there was an opportunity to his gallantry Another peal of laughter in which several joined Rose felt herself lifted to her feet with sudden disgust by crazy Tom she
