With a deftness which had made the Wolverine famous in the navy for the niceties of seamanship, the great cruiser let down her tackle as she drew skilfully alongside, and made fast, preparatory to lifting the dory gently to her broad deck.

Adelaide next noted Dory, and grew cold from head to foot.

He sought out the harbor-master, who was engaged in painting a dory behind his shop.
