The hardshlps endured by sailors
even now are sufficient, were they more
generally known, to deter adventurous
boys from running away to sea. The
isolation of vessel at sea, and the re-

necessary that passengers and crew

where authority Is so absolute it is nat.

hardships and cruelties to which the
