Miltiades Bargains Over Tow With Tudor Ship
Bennet, captain of the Tudor, debates a tow with the Miltiades owner over oranges cargo worth about £1800. After a tense standoff and shifting offers, Bennet agrees to £400 to connect the Miltiades tow. The exchange ends with Bennet securing the deal as weather worsens and multiple steamers pass.
