The captain returned in the after
noon and entered his cabin by a door
which the Inspector had failed to
notice, and consequently which was
unsealed. The officer soon after broke
the seal of the usual entrance, and
going into the cabin without warning,
found the captain with his secret scut-
tleway open and in the act of taking
oil from the hold. He had just
broken a bottle by accident, and this,
too, served to draw attention to his
proceedings. The smuggling captain
at once saw that he was caught, and
supplemented a remark to that effect
by the expression that he must s'make
the best of it," Soon after General
Wass, accompanied by Captain j.
Snow, coast inspector and detective,
arrived on the scene in a cutter to see
that a proper watch vas being kept.
They found the captain had been
caught, and that he had confessed
partly. To them he subsequently
