 On board the Rampatina liner, eleven days and a half out from Liverpool, the usual terrific sensation created by the appearance of the pilot-yacht prevailed. Necks were craned and toes were trodden on as the steamer slackened speed, and a line dexterously1 thrown by a blue-jerseyed deck-hand was caught by somebody aboard the yacht. The pilot, not insensible to the fact of his being a personage of note, carefully divested2 his bearded countenance3 of all expression as he saluted4 the Captain, and taking from the deck-steward’s obsequiously7 proffered8 salver a glass containing four-fingers of neat Bourbon whisky, concealed9 its contents about his person without perceptible emotion, and went up with the First Officer upon the upper bridge as the relieved skipper plunged10 below. The telegraphs clicked their message—the leviathan hulk of the liner quivered and began to forge slowly ahead, and an intelligent-looking, thin-lipped, badly-shaved young man in a bowler11, tweeds, and striped necktie, introduced himself to the Second Officer as an emissary of the Press.
“Mr. Cyrus K. Pillson, New York Yeller.... Pleased to know you, sir,” said the Second Officer; “step into the smoke-room, this way. Bar-steward, a brandy cocktail12 for me, and you, sir, order whatever you are most in the habit of hoisting13. Whisky straight! Now, sir, happy to afford you what information I can!”
