High on the upper deck, in a little nook among the everywhere predominant cotton-bales, at last we may find him.
While we waited we devoted the time to the con-struction of an upper deck, since the one immediately above the ballast was some seven feet from the gunwale.
I saw him, with my mind's eye, on the schooner on which he worked, wearing nothing but a pair of dungarees; and at night, when the boat sailed along easily before a light breeze, and the sailors were gathered on the upper deck, while the captain and the supercargo lolled in deck-chairs, smoking their pipes, I saw him dance with another lad, dance wildly, to the wheezy music of the concertina.
