rail or by steamer
Captain Goodwin is q firm believer in
the Hawaiian as a sailor. and he has
selected a crew of natives that is bound
to make a name in the voyage around
the Horn. The men were picked by the
captain himself. despite the attempted
interference OF shipping agents. and he
is satisfied that his crew will give good
service. The Hawaiians aboard are
also congratulating themselves on the
fact that Wilder Wight will go along
as their third officer. which accounts
i'm a measure for their willingness to
ship with Captain Goodwin.
