It seemed as if those weary weeks would never end as l lay there thinking and wishing the days away.
 "One evening, some little time after the bell had summoned all to supper, was lying, trying to read. Suddenly I thought I saw streak of light from under the door of the cabin belonging to the second mate across the alley way For few moments I watched, wondering what the light could be. As I watched 1t got brighter.
