  THE LADY OF THE BARGE 
  
  AND OTHER STORIES 
  
  By W. W. Jacobs 
  
  BILL'S PAPER CHASE 
  
  Sailormen 'ave their faults, said the night watchman, frankly.  I'm not denying of it.  I used to 'ave myself when I was at sea, but being close with their money is a fault as can seldom be brought ag'in 'em. 
  I saved some money once--two golden sovereigns, owing to a 'ole in my pocket.  Before I got another ship I slept two nights on a doorstep and 'ad nothing to eat, and I found them two sovereigns in the lining o' my coat when I was over two thousand miles away from the nearest pub. 
  I on'y knew one miser all the years I was at sea.  Thomas Geary 'is name was, and we was shipmates aboard the barque _Grenada,_ homeward bound from Sydney to London.
