"Then," said Billy sorrowfully, turning toward the door, "I guess there's only one thing fer me to do." "I agree with you, Acton: a fleet of men-of-war," said the Admiral. Anson almost sobbed his relief. "I'll do it," he agreed. "What is it you want'a know, Bill?" "I can't conceive of anything," said Captain Weaver, smiling with something of pride at the Admiral and Captain Acton, "born—I don't care in what shipwright's yard, whether British or French or Roosian or Spaniard—as is going to have more than a look at the Aurora when it's her pleasure to show nothing but her heels.".
