"I spect we had better stop" the little Captain said as he turned the magic switch to "stop." Presently the large boat came up beside the little boat and the Pirates loaded a row boat and started to climb aboard the magical boat, but just as they started to climb the ladder, the little magical boat began wiggling sideways ever so hard and tumbled all the Pirates into the sea. Then as there were no more Pirates aboard the large boat to shoot the cannon, Raggedy Andy ran to the magic switch and turned it to "real fast" and before the Pirates could swim to the row boat and get aboard their large boat, the little magical white boat was just a tiny speck in the dis tance and of course cannon ball would not go that far.
 Now we can finish eating our lunchw Raggedy Andy laughed as he brought more ice cream cones and cream puffs from the cabin.

 The friend writes as follows:

They are both very stubborn and neither will give in to the other. l know it is a very delicate and dangerous thing to do but standing between them I have consented to act as their ambassador. I hope to be able to promote peace between them and have, without the other knowing it, sug- gested that they each write you. This they have agreed to do.

"We will just let the little white magic boat sail in any direction it wishes!" the little Captain laughed, "Then we will be sur prised when we sail into an adventure I spect!"
 So, Raggedy Andy went into the lit. tie cabin and brought out a lot of cream puffs and ice cream cones so that they could sit upon the front deck and enjoy the ride while they enjoyed the goodies, and, just as they had fin- ished eating the last cream puffs and ice cream cone and Raggedy Andy had just started into the cabin for more, they all heard loud boom" and a cannon ball went skipping over the water in front of the little white boat. boat
