the thing for recruits, and she was
right on the spot. Then he realized
that for such a craft to sell at auction

chance for saving her.
But how did it happen?" he asked.
weren't they rather quick in selling
the Martha?"
"Had to. You know the reef at

up, and it's ripe for a nor'wester any

where they cut of the Scottish Chiefs

Martha missed stays going in. and in

classed as "steam battery" was the
first United States warship that was

OF no little speculation on the part

she was looked upon by other nations

rank of commander, was put in COM
