The Story of a Wreck Continues with a Pirate Mutiny
In CHAPTER XXIV and XXV of The Story of a Wreck the crew battles a rising flood of water as pumps strain to keep the ship afloat. Boyle must decide whether to abandon ship if eight inches of water persist, while Miss Robertson confesses growing affection and hints at offering command of a Robertson ship. The deck crew endures, pumps grog, and a tense, hopeful plan forms to reach safety or another vessel.
