it reminds me of the firehouse and of
Albert's steam ships I've often thought
fanciest sailor sweating all day down
below without even sight of the sea
shoveling coal into a
furnace that's your s a fancy me yes
it's wicked my brother a ship owner and
his wife living in a basement every
penny James earns is for buying more
shares in the
company let me help you oh you'll suly
your FR look you'll do yourself an
injury you can't even LIF Oh indeed I
can an are you not
well she go
[Music]
won't be worth much without the
cargo cargo's worth nothing at all more
salt than sugar in those bags
now C in a right Squall by the
L didn't even have time to wreath the
sails the Gin to try no one Abandon Ship
unless they have to
Sir come on put your backs into it heave
to Caro our own to get home won't stand
the keeping too long neither point today
at Sea won't harm even our cargo
pineapples should be some good Salvage
money in this
eh it's that Smoky old range in there oh
James will have something to answer for
when he gets back it's just a queasiness
that passes soon
enough how's young William wanting his
dinner I should think I must go the maid
has no way with a child at all you know
James could afford a maid to help you
servants you'll be wishing a carriage on
us next well at least he could afford a
decent house there's a very passable
property you know in Trinity Road it'll
all come soon enough once James has
control of the old need in line again
and when will that be it's like Albert's
seip men heads in the clouds so long as
we've got our feet on the ground there's
no arm in that well at least mine aren't
stuck in a basement look go and give
young William's dinner you'll be all
right I am all right it's just a touch
of sickness that comes over me at
times sickness well haven't you
ever oh
no no it couldn't be
[Music]
that this she's coming up nicely Mr
Baines right shift the rest over to
starbard nicely all right now come on
shift the rest of it over to
starburn I'll take it there's a set of
SP aboard I've never known a ship put to
Sea so ill equipped as this
one well we'll use what we can from our
own cell
Locker we'll take her in
to oh
Elizabeth could it really be well you've
waited long
enough James would be so pleased well as
long as he shows he is but this is no
place to have a baby he'll have to put
his hand in his pocket for you now
an yeah will he really be pleased of
course he
will an heir to the only in
[Music]
line and this rap will not make liable
by the end of the month
sir you'd like us to cut
it wouldn't you Mr BS the crew didn't
think it worth saving sir
I think she's a fine ship and in my
opinion a fast one Salvage Awards should
be worth a tidy S I can't AG Greaser he
not worth the risk we're taking on our
cargo of pineapple it could be rotting
below within the
week Ireland delayed Ross carber is
sailing tomorrow James was ever a man of
few
words especially when words cost money
to put him to Ireland it must must have
been serious for James to delay and risk
his pineapple cargo the must have
been very badly battered well it's
seaworthy now he'd not be sailing
tomorrow yes but in what condition the
Charlotte road is not the ship that she
was and the Irish sea can be fearsome oh
I can't bear it when they sail without
me the worst they can endure see is
nothing beside the fancies that haunt me
at home an I was expecting you m
today whatever's the matter with
you I'm sorry Robert I just keep
bursting into tears for no reason at all
you're surprised it happened to me often
enough what
happened thank you for bringing the
telegram Robert I'm sure you've business
to attend
to listen what are you doing here I'm
just calling in an apron I'm giving an a
hand in the kitchen you giving someone a
hand I've never known you put yourself
out for anybody give my love to Sarah
listen if there's anything wrong with
her in there we ought to get a doctor we
don't need doctor yet
yet you
mean
she's an an no an why ever didn't you
tell me well I wanted James to be the
first to know Robert but I think it's
wonderful news after all all this time
you just wait till I tell Sarah Oh Robin
don't worry she won't bring the word to
anyone I promise you
it'll be all over Liverpool by Nightfall
does it really matter not if James were
here you'll have to get used to being on
your own from now on you know there'll
be no more voyages with James when the
baby's born why ever not babies just
give them an excuse for what to go off
Fancy free oh just because Albert's away
well as long as James gets you out of
this place that's something but you'll
have to insist I think not James himself
will
insist James a
father what' you say about that
then I was beginning to wonder wonder
what oh you know our James all that
energy and not even a child to show for
it I mean the rest of us have managed it
haven't we oh Rob
really it'll be the making of James you
mark my words having a
family H there's nothing like fatherhood
to give a man a proper sense of
responsibility you don't seem best
pleased with the news should I be
another James and Eden on the way but
like that it is a sober thought and a
worrying one worrying
I I don't know what you mean oh you
never can see beyond the end of your own
nose can you if James has a son the uned
line will go to him and not to our
little
Samuel well I do have 1,500 shares of my
own in the company well you need a sight
more than that if there's to be anything
worth having for our little
Samuel
Robert you must buy more an needen line
share is get these hatch covers off read
for
[Music]
[Music]
discharge James
[Music]
where are them donies we' got a cargo AB
that won't stay a moment
longer Mr
B what kept you we took a derel in toone
cost us a week old toll kep even thought
it was worth it I can't understand it
normally I value his judgment get on
with it there well this der what's her
name was a deoa the Maria de Gloria a
Portuguese or Brazilian anyway we put
what sale we could on her and took her
in tour but the wind changed to the east
so we could make no Headway so we
dropped her off at Ross carp a good
prize is she well Baines doesn't think
so but he's wrong that schoon is worth a
lot of her owner so the Salvage of War
should be a good one hey James and the
money you'll go towards buying more
shares in the steamship company yes
bring us that much nearer to getting
control of the uned line again Jam of
course I do regret the Del I'm having a
baby rotted then on the other hand
what did you
say I'm with
child why didn't you say so what been
trying to you but you didn't give me
room to get a word in
edgeways you sure wasn't at first I
couldn't believe it but I'm sure
now
James is it good news
good
news that's wonderful
news most wonderful news I've ever heard
in all my life what's that then here
Robert I'm going to be a father oh yes
that and told me it is certainly most
wonderful
news you want it to be January or
February maybe
yes yeah there calls for a toast
Sarah I'm going to be a father I know
Robert told me oh I am pleased be you
one yeah Robert go and get Baines I want
everybody to drink to the area of the
anaden line oh Mr paines is chasing up
the Dockers to unload your cargo
pineapple oh well better not interrupt
that Den he can drink his later then
you'll need a decent home now you're
starting a family oh my son will lack
for nothing I believe it's a girl oh no
it'll be a boy
well here's to James
II and to the company that'll one day be
is there's a very nice house in Trinity
Road for sale of course it will have to
be furnished and with a baby to bring up
and will need servants I'm well aware of
an's needs one would hardly think so
from a glance around this place
Elizabeth I'll trouble you to leave me
to mind me own Affairs will you if Anne
has to have her baby here James has
already put aside money for a house
Elizabeth the cargo of pineapple made a
handsome profit I thought a lot of it
went bad only 50 worth you made 500
profit on the rest and with what we'll
get from salving the Maria de Gloria and
will lack for none of the Comforts that
you so kindly wish on her oh dear no no
an Elizabeth will attend to it she is
just leaving James there brother Robert
what on Earth does he want now goodbye
an goodbye Elizabeth you my regards to
Albert when I see him your father will
be here next you'll be happy to toast
our son's elf from now until Christmas
James that ship you salvaged she's up
for
auction what the Maria de Gloria it's in
the shipping Gazette
look to be sold at public auction at the
Wexford arms Ross carbury where you left
it l time no barely time for anyone to
go and have a look at it much less
decide if there's a use for it well
shall not fetch more than 3 or 400
owners must have lost his wits the owner
abandoned interest in it when it was
lost four months ago it belongs to the
insurers now and they seem to want it
off their hands just as soon as they can
don't they know a th ship in the same
one oh don't fret James it's their loss
and those indeed it is the Salvage Court
will allow only onethird of the value so
whatever it fetches at public auction
even in Ireland will be deemed the value
but it's it's really worth so much more
well oh well yes only James thinks
that Maria de Gloria you know so far
I've not met anybody who's ever heard of
her nor have I it seems she's never been
seen in English Waters and according to
the Shippy movement lists well there's
no mention of her there anywhere
something odd about that
ship I'm going to get to the bottom of
it Robert we'll go over tonight on a
stink packet eh to Island we could be in
Ros calary day after tomorrow oh cut
your losses James and you'll be all
right here if Robert himself himself go
over to Ireland oh indeed I will I'm
coming with you and a woman in your
condition doesn't travel over the Irish
sea in a steam packet the Irish sea is a
sight less dangerous and climbing those
stairs every time I want to go out or
looking close from the cell for that
abominable stove you never made
complaint before I've never been with
child before
[Music]
Where's Robert got no stomach for the
sea at all Paul Robert you and I are
used to it just heard who's handling the
sale of the Schooner Mr sank a Shar
customer
[Music]
here how much longer must we endure this
bouncing 10 cattle long enough for you
to acquire your sea
legs man I just lost my
balance you're
there I'm not feeling too
well you'll never CE
it it's a
baby you should have stayed at home told
you I'm all right really I
[Music]
am she's a lovely lying on the water lot
of damage day's work for a competent
ship's Carpenter no more come on let's
have a word with Mr
[Music]
sanki uh Mr shanki who you
oh my name's
Onan it was I that salvaged the Maria
the Gloria I'm aware of that though I
fear there won't be much in this fi mran
oh indeed well now then this is my wife
an and we brother Robert your
service looks a good ship to me eh she
has a bad record we haven't seen any
records at all what's she been used for
well I'm just see insurers agent my
instructions are to arrange a quick sale
and dispose of her why did the owners
abandon her eh she couldn't even ride
out a gale bad seamanship perhaps some
crew from Brazil eh well I know
nothing of the crew except that they
were all picked up and taken home to Rio
Mr zanki what do you think she'll fetch
sir my principles be very happy to
receive
£500 he I did warn you there was little
for you in it as
Sala I reckon she's worth four times
that amount but how can you be so sure
James she does doesn't look worth 500 to
me face the fats man you were wrong to
price her so highly I think not Robert
look it's a matter of simple shopkeeping
I'm sure it is to you look if I price a
candle at a one penny then a penny is
what it's worth otherwise I'd charge
more Mr sanki doesn't even want to get
more than £500 for her no one will bid
more anyway right he got some interest
in this I swear I mean to sell a ship
like that
here this crowd
James yes £50 wor a pineapple rotted on
the Charlotte roads because of the delay
can you honestly say you're not just
trying to justify that you saw at
Timbers not more than two years old
lovely lines you said but James you've
said yourself you've no way of telling
how fast a ship is until you take it to
Sea a well this time is different I just
know she's a fast chip oh it's late come
to bed
I mean why would they want to get rid of
us so quickly for such a measly s
there's more to life than ships I wanted
you to stay at home but know you would
come over here making yourself iller now
that you are here oh I'm sorry I was
foolish it's
Elizabeth she thinks Albert neglects her
neglects
her fine house cares servants everything
she needs so he's no need to feel guilty
about not being there himself she thinks
you'd be be the
same for a moment when you wanted me to
stay
behind oh I admit I was foolish
James Jam where are you going
[Music]
James for
[Music]
[Music]
for
[Music]
[Music]
for
who's there
Mr an MR shank I'm just looking around
you know at this time of night well
couldn't sleep you know what can you see
in the
dark all that I want I think well um
good enough Mr zanki I could bring you
before a magistrate for this this is not
your property Mr onidan and of no wish
it to be
either so you went to border last night
I and found out what wanted to know oh
and what was that Maria de glor is a
slaver a
slaver I found the fittings for the
manles and Sher a twe deck at one time
or other too the slave trade's illegal
now well still goes on how I thought the
French and English navies had ships on
the African Coast to stop it so you need
a fast ship to evade them a ship
especially built for the purpose the
Brazilians have got too much in slavery
to give up the trade allog together so
that Schooner was a designed to put a
long wait between her and any ship
pursuing her no wonder you couldn't find
out out about her Robert I doubt she's
ever been registered but what's she
doing in Northern
latitudes maybe there was after a
Brazilian owners and he wants to get rid
of her eh so he TT on a cargo of sugar
and with the same crew he sends it on a
commercial Voyage Through Seas they
they've never sailed before and at the
first sign of trouble they take to the
boat so that explains why the insurers
want a quick sale the less attention
drawn to the B suits my purpose fine but
you want the ship to get the real value
so that you get a just Salvage award and
the Salvage award I'd drive at the ship
what for £500 she'd be an absolute
bargain on the fruit run from the aor
she'd beat everybody home now I'll tell
you something when we get back to
Liverpool we display no more interest in
the Maria de Gloria we tell nobody but I
thought the 500 was for a house oh and
we can always get a house but we'll
never have a chance of a scer like that
not for
£500 it's a poor lookout for a man of my
years if we to be denied the occasion to
drink a health to his own grandson it'll
be 6 months at least before he's even
born the way you're drinking his health
you'll not be able to Christen again I
understand at least he's to be born in a
more salubrious surrounding than this
yes James is to buy a house for us the
property I'm told you have in mind seems
sounding up in her Timbers a b short an
accommodation if it's the house in
Trinity Road that you're referring to
I've been to look at it that's all I'm
not sure I'm completely taken with it in
any case at the moment James needs the
money for other
purposes but it only takes one other
bidder to find out about that ship and
the price will soon sort to its proper
value well I just have to chance that
won't I £500 is as far as I can go huh
so an must do without the house in
Trinity Road oh if anybody talks to me
about that again look we're only trying
to help James help well yes I that is I
I mean James we do have something saved
and with that little nest for my aunt
more are you offering me Al
loone
well not exactly no we thought if we
could buy say say 500 of your in Eden
line shares well then they'd still be in
family now if you want to buy some more
shares you buy them from the public that
way we'll have all the more in the
family won't we of course you want to
reduce my
holding Robert I might have to sell some
shares but if I do I'll sell them to
people I know I can buy them back
from James Onan found out she was a
slaver I can't say but I strongly
suspect that he has well if he has he'll
bid for
her oh good morning
Emma Miss em may I present Mr sanki
agent for weather Biz who insured the
Maria de Gloria I'll take my leave oh
there's no need you can speak freely in
front of Miss Callen she owns the
business indeed she also has a head for
it very pretty one too if I may say
so now
uh Mr sanki thinks that James or may
have stumbled on the truth about the
Maria de Gloria and that she's a slaver
well a fast ship anyway a ship he might
be inclined to purchase if he could get
it cheap enough well Wilbraham at least
will beat against him so will I because
if James on needing at that auction I'll
be there too and if that's the case
there's no question of this private sale
we've been discussing a private sale
well Mr sank remembers our interest in
the Maria de Gloria when her owners
wanted to dispose of her quickly 6
months ago and now she's turned up again
brought in by of all people James all
need in Mr sank is offering her to us
for a straight £2,500 well then why go
to the trouble of putting her up for
auction to save Mr San's principles from
paying James on need in the Salvage
money he expects how
well if we don't let anyone know what a
fast chip she is ma'am no one will
bother to go all the way to Ireland to
bid for
her is about £400 and uh Mr sankis Man
what's his name Wilbraham I wilam has
instructions to top that you get it for
£450 at the most of which James Onin
gets 1/3 of Salva for mere
£50 and then you Mr wilham acting for
you sells a schooner to us on the quiet
for £2,500
what would she be worth if you auctioned
her fairly well at the least 3,000 she's
as good as that she's remarkable ma'am
uh which is why my Mr sank no will be
glad to have her well you can bid at the
auction if you prefer Mr FY but remember
my way you gain a considerable bargain
we save ourselves a great sum by
preventing unidan from getting the full
Salvage de from what I hear that in
itself could be quite a consideration
with you Mr ftin yes but if James needan
is going to bid for the ship himself
well in that case our transaction can't
stand so it's imperative that we find
out James says she'd beat everything on
the sea from the aor a fine time to buy
a ship oh the right time if it's a
bargain Elizabeth quite the stay at home
these days aren't you James that's nice
to be with your wife at a time like this
dinner ready yet it will be soon if the
fire's not gone out
an says you're not going to buy that
house in Trinity Road after all
Elizabeth I've told you before keep out
of our Affairs you mean to leave her
here don't you your profits and your
Ships Come First even before your own
child and is as anxious as I am that our
child shall make no difference to our
way of life she readily understands that
if I need to put the Affairs of the anen
line before a bow fronted window or a
lace covered C that have every right to
do
so well am I not right of course James
I must go I left the servant spring
cleaning and with Albert away they're
inclined to grow LAX in their
duties how lucky you are an not to be
troubled with these
problems next time my sister comes to
call I advise you to be a bit more
reticent with your confidences
eh could you put some more coal on the
fire for me I've managed to fill the
bucket but it's a lifting I find hard
an if it should be necessary to find
more than
£500 would you begrudge me the
expenditure well how could you raise the
money sell some of the shares in that
case couldn't you sell a few more and we
could have a house as well a year before
the Maria de Gloria made enough profit
to buy back the shares and a house
couldn't make any profit to buy them
back so yeah you would be grudging me
eh I can manage this stairs without
undue exertion at the moment but not the
Cal
I hope I'm not incommoding you oh an
unexpected honor Miss Callen well I'd
heard your wife was with child and
knowing there'll be times when you're
away at Sea I wanted her to know if
there was ever anything I could do my
wife has everything she needs I came out
of kindness not charity oh won't you sit
down Miss cvin afraid you find us ill
prepared for visiting PR make no
ceremony for me Mrs aned you'll take a
glass of something we have some mad no I
can see you're just about to die I'll
call another day oh you think nobody had
ever had a baby before well your wife
has never had one before it's not
expected for another 6 months yet at
least well let's hope you're home for
the happy event and that by then your
fortunes will have turned sufficiently
to provide for it Miss Gan why have you
called
eh I admit that whilst here I did intend
to make inquiries about something else
but my concern for your wife is no less
genuine for
that this ship you salvaged well Mr fogy
and I were wondering whether it was
worth going over to Ireland to bid for
her well would I tell you if it were
well you would I think if you knew in
fact it were
not what if I were to tell you that the
Maria de gler is so unstable that she'd
found her after hitting the first Gale
that she's so unseaworthy that I should
have let her to sink what would you
infer from that eh that I wanted you out
of the way so I could get a cheap myself
very possibly or my uncle may have
underrated you but I do
not well whoever buys the Maria de
Gloria buys a pig in a poke for £500 she
could be worth it or she could
not for the Cen company it's not much of
a
risk but um for my wife and myself
expecting our first uh well we've got
better things to spend our money
on well I appreciate apprciate your
cander good day Mrs
anen I'll see myself
out good day now G yeah not should kill
any interest in her there they now
unless anybody else has heard of that
ship she's as good as ours oh James stop
it stop what it all seem so petty and
that ship could be the way back for us
another ship another Gamble
oh I'm sorry I just feel so
weary I'll get you dinner I fear it'll
be
overdone I see you sailing today Mr
Baines hi Mr B onan's in
command his wife's with him now saying
goodbye we sail on the tide oh so he
won't be on hand to see what he might
get for salvaging that Schooner the
auctions tomorrow he's not expecting
much from that got his fingers burned
there didn't he why don't you buy us her
you could afford a few thousand few
thousand well she's not worth more than
3 or 400 from what I'm told Captain o'
never wants to hear of the Maria the
Gloria again I'm not surprised Mr
Baines why are you sailing
today ship C money will load it sooner
than I counted on so why wait so that
you can go to Ireland to buy that
Schooner oh you say that
yes James you've hardly spoken a word to
me these last two days can't you see I'm
trying to make amends I want you to buy
her another venture another gamble
oh I was just feeling so weary that day
frightened I was even a bit envious too
H Callen in a fine clothes and
Elizabeth look I don't care a job for a
house if buying the Maria de Gloria is
what we need well that auction's
tomorrow you must be there whatever it
costs come
in excuse me sir oh yeah I just thought
you'd like to know I fool Mr fogy all
the way he thinks I'm saying I neglected
to tell him I got my Master's
certificate man oh I'm glad to hear that
Mr B
thank you ma'am I told him You' no wish
to hear of the maret Gloria again so if
you go now you just have time to catch
the packet yeah only your pocket it
doesn't sell as well you only bother
with that if he thought you were too
you'll have it all to yourself let's
hope it's worth what you pay for it I'll
be back in a couple of days eh with the
scoon so he was going anyway I should
have guessed
well you know kept no need man
yes but for a while I forgot but what
about her finer points Mr sanki how do I
recommend her to the Boyers just say
she's a 300 ton Schooner in need of
repairs a powerful fine Schooner in good
state of repair that is not what I said
Mr Delany a broad beam sits well on the
water good strong hind quarters of solid
she is a ship not a prize bull maybe but
I'm a deal with more skilled at selling
cattle than ships and there so little to
attract their imagination as it were ah
the Dublin coach let's hope it brings
some customers nobody from these parts
has money to spare I should have thought
you was just what was needed for the
local potato trade there's a small bunch
of farmers who form themselves into a
sort of a Syndicate and if they haven't
drunk the money away before the auction
tomorrow they maybe bid a few hundred
but if you want her to fetch a a fair
price we just want her disposed of Mr
Delany
ah here's someone with a right smell of
affluence about him his name's Wilbraham
you'll find tomorrow he could well be
your man and with the gentleman upstairs
as well I was forgetting him what
gentleman
upstairs this was hardly necessary just
here to observe Mr sanki to keep an eye
on my interest in the
matter good evening f
good evening Mr
onen James has taken all the money he
could raise to Ireland with him I don't
know why you put up with it an why I
have questioned it I want to
know I married him for security and I
love him for the lack of
it dear Elizabeth you wouldn't
understand at all £300 I am bid do I
hear for 400 for this fine
Schooner now gentlemen this auction is

sake Elizabeth I will not tolerate this
even at an's reception you and foggy
flirting and smiling billing and cooing
you think no one sees these things I
think the servants will hear you if you
do not moderate your tone well they can
only gossip too does it give you
pleasure that people smirk and talk
about us in public people will talk with
or without cause they have cause not
from me cause enough if they say you're
no wife to me they're right I don't know
what you
mean I am tired of being reasonable and
patient with you I've waited and I've
hoped hoped that by being kind and
considerate you would at least come to
respect me out of simple Justice we
can't pretend we've had a loving
marriage but how can it improve when you
treat me like a guest in your house that
faintly bores you you can't forget
William or forgive
me William is my son who was father was
became immaterial a long time
since but you have cheated me of so very
much you are cold and unfair not I who
am cold am I perhaps you are just not as
warm-blooded as some warm blooded yes
married to you not as manly
Albert
[Music]
[Music]
whoa get up
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
go on in go on with
you oh Albert you don't know how pleased
I'm to see you you know I was afraid
that you no
well truth to tell I was
ashamed I just didn't know else to turn
to was kind of you paying those bills oh
that's all right only the show closed
well it's not a busy time in the theater
just now I've not worked
since it's very OD for a woman
alone uh Carrie you're you're all right

rent oh I'll manage no no no no no no
well take it if you need it
please oh you darling
[Music]
man oh I uh I'll tell
[Music]
Mom an I must tell
you that will do thank you
Maggie and may I stay here with you for
a few
days at least until I find myself some
other lodgings what has happened I've
left Albert
is it not late for a respectable matron
to be abroad
well it's late for me anyway come on
Sarah it's time we we're going just a
moment Sarah just a moment Robert I want
to know what brings Elizabeth here do
you
know but with all our talk we quite
forgot the main purpose of your visit so
we did those papers upon which James
requires our signatures on which I
require your signatures ah yes you see
we have a legitimate reason for our
gallivanting but what brings Elizabeth
here oh a big pardon mom now it's Mr
Fraser
I see Albert I'd expected better of you
at least it is not the way you think but
you'll Aid in a better in a latest
foolishness we are not alone Albert no I
can quite see that look I don't pretend
to understand what's going on but this
is no time for a family se but you and
needing know of family your harb me wife
can I have a meeting with this man your
turn a manner to be so offensive do you
deny you were sitting here discussing it
laughing and talking with a spoiled girl
with no better sense of loyalty than to
Desert me out of Fe I do deny it yes I
followed you tonight you were ever a
trollop and now you're a spy I've
advised your wife before this to stay
with you oh I owe me marriage to your
whim do I your marriage is none of my
business oh yes it is it's very much
your business if my wife deserts me I'll
not maintain her she'll get not one
penny from me you need your money do you
to support Mistresses you'll need money
so get it from the man you left me for
listen
stop it all of you I will not have such
behavior in my house Robert Sarah and Mr
fogy will hear by purest chance and any
other suggestions a direct front to me I
can't believe that very well Robert
please see that he leaves this house if
James if if if if but he isn't oh all
right an know Albert I think you should
leave oh I shall go and Elizabeth it's
my opinion that you should go with your
husband go I shall not I'd rather walk
the streets you may yet be doing that
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
love it sir this isn't your first trip
is it no sir done two trips to sherberg
sir you that trimmed the lamps this
morning thanks sir what about this one
eh thoughts of New York taking your
minds off your work mean smoking what if
it should start a
fire well reach a it yes sir hi sir
sorry
[Music]
sir Mrs Fraser has left her
husband hi oh you knew
that I feared it may end in the Law
Courts Law Courts a divorce you mean or
separation oh it's Unthinkable it would
ruin the anidan and Captain aniden would
never permit it to come to that well
he's a SE isn't he I'm also told that
Robert and Sarah were party to her
walking out and aided and abetted it and
even that she made have left him
for go on for
you I see so there is no substance to it
none well I'm glad of that for I cannot
afford Scandal of any kind in my
situation nor even less could you
may Scandal would prevent us being wed
[Music]
truth to tell I cannot feel a great deal
of Sympathy For You Elizabeth you've
behaved shaby in my
opinion you foed upon Albert a child who
was not his own yet he's come to love
young William he's had to suffer
selfishness and willfulness from you and
yet he still has some regard for you
well if you feel like that perhaps I
better not stay here no where will you
go if I have been shabby to deceive
Albert though it was before my marriage
the man with whom it happened must yet
do his duty by me he wanted to do his
duty as you call it at the time and you
rejected him now if you cut any girlish
dream that Mr fogy can somehow rescue
you you're sadly mistaken anything he
did would ruin both of you I don't see
why people do get divorced nowadays as a
last resort to rid themselves an
impossibly Wicked or immoral
partner I think I should tell you as
soon as you came here I wrote straight
away to James the news should reach in
New York you had no right this is my
life James won't stand by and see you
ruin it James is very far away
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
oh and I'm not to be
disturbed I am so sorry to have been so
long with a gentleman of course Mr
fellow but uh you would not have enjoyed
meeting him
I am afraid they are not gentlemen in
his kind of work what did he discover
not happy news I'm afraid it any goes to
show how wise you were to take legal
advice as early as you did in this but
what news ah your husband is not being
Wise It's Beginning to build into a
solid case for judicial separation well
you understand that's not truly what I
want I only want my husband to maintain
me no I said not one penny till she
comes home and I stand by it but you're
not living at Home Albert you live in
here SS have left and I'm not going to
live in an empty house so Albert I came
to you quite reasonably let Elizabeth
come she deserted me with provocation
Albert with provocation with less
provocation than I've had in years of
marriage I'm not prepared to discuss me
affairs with you
Affairs then you must discuss them with
someone must oh I think not here we are
then I thought you might care for a
glass of wine we just got a bottle in
thank you I'll put it
there nothing
else well just call
Albert you seem uh quite comfortable
here well looked after by uh Miss Harris
I don't recall making
introductions this won't do
Halbert it's affecting the business you
know and there's foggy daily growing
more impatient for plans for your
steamship contracts are going elsewhere
trades falling off Scandal never was
good for business Albert it must be
stopped you stop it then
I'm look Albert you and Elizabeth must I
don't know make up come back together I
don't anything but regularize this
situation Elizabeth sent you to say this
no no no no Sarah and I thought
that
well yes Elizabeth knew that I was
coming here yes and the remed is in her
own hands is it look I don't pretend
that Elizabeth is an easy person to live
with but there's fault on your side too
you
know well For Heaven's Sake maam here
you are living in what can only be
called sin with a with a musical singer
out get out
[Music]
what is it
sir it's from a wife sent all the way
across the Atlantic at Great expense
well how goes the loading then eh we're
a deck and short we we nearly done sir
the molasses and weed to loaded we have
just those creats of medical
supplies right sell on the first tide
get up there with the baying pin if you
have to but we must be finished sell a
man shot if we have to bad news was it
sir bad and worse unless we get back to
England
soon on the contrary lady L it's very
gracious of you to call well I thought
it was time that someone returned your
call I'm sorry uh your sister no how is
she in excellent Health thank you good
the air must be doing her some good the
air well she has been leaving cards so I
understand over half the city oh
Elizabeth was always fond of company and
visiting yes indeed so she must miss
them or am might being too direct a
cake no thank you I am a believer in the
large effects of small matters small
virtues small
vices that is in
moderation
SMY thank you I also believe that an
accumulation of Virtues can become a
happy life and make for a well a safe
society in which each individual may be
um
fulfilled according to his St
vices on the other hand can also become
a pattern of life but a pattern that is
totally unacceptable unacceptable to
whom why to
society there must be order right or
wrong we're not monkeys Mrs Onan I have
read that a Mr Charles Darwin would have
us believe otherwise really then I
should say that such reading was not
fitting for a gentle woman oh dear me
know oh no well would such an idea
leaders Mrs on I have the warmest regard
for you personally so now I must presume
upon your forbearance yes well you will
know that you're not being received in
society and I must tell you it may
seriously affect your husband's business
interests I see the pressure is so great
that even my own husband may be forced
to sell his shareholdings in the unidan
steamships and I take it that uh your
husband does not have the sum required
to buy them back himself not yet and he
wants to buy them back he will never
earn the money in the present climate
there is too much
gossip and this is just the
beginning do tell me is it true that Mr
Fraser contemplates nothing less than
a a
divorce it is
true Mrs Fraser has been served with
papers and she will cross petition for a
separation your family could not survive
it Spite and gossip will finish you oh
Scandal May sometimes be lived down but
this this will be the end of the unidan
family what can I do no one can help you
Mrs unidan and nobody can save you
except that there must be no divorce
[Music]
[Music]
what is it l Mr Bean's compliment sir
and have we yet laid down the new course
for
England we

north as New Foundland then by great
circle uh uh North by isand

ice at this time of the year Well we
very little chge at the moment wind's
still
southeasterly we may be blown still
further north and we run the risk of
meeting icebergs and may I I weigh the
risks Mr it's imperative that we make a
fast passage to
Liverpool all sir
[Music]
stop it no no now you stop it
you look so pretty Emma you quite
Wicked you should be ashamed of yourself
Daniel FY but I'm not
Don't Run
Away you frighten me I
do I'm a lamb and you told me a
falsehood now take me home what
falsehood papers you said the papers you
simply must collect it was just an
excuse to trick me into being alone with
you a little white lie otherwise I would
have had to take you home
so you
must imagine my
reputation bad enough that I should die
in public with you as do all the best
people made me feel so wicked Emma you

darling you're so
beautiful
Daniel I love you him Daniel I love you

[Music]
I'm sorry I'm sorry it's all right I'm
just so frightened there's nothing to be
frighten of I can't
I you're too fine for me so kind and a
gentle and
understanding you might swayed me even
forced me to and you
didn't I'm so upw me no Emma you're
beautiful it it terrifies me
F of children oh is that all how can I
be married it's very easy Lord all you
have to say is I
do I love you
Emma and I love you so very very
much to be so understanding and so
patient with
me well I learned patience in a hard
School of course
did she hurt you very much who
Elizabeth Mrs Fraser you were to have
married her weren't
you
well that was a long time ago and then
one learned
something then I thought I was in love
too now you can understand how one may
be carried away in a moment of passion
oh yes I was we both were and then
I did not call her
hold was
she and all this time you've been
wrestling with your conscience trying a
thousand times to tell me oh now you
have and I shall show you that I can be
understanding
too and now we'll never talk about it
again will
we well
oh no
Emma so you are to be involved they will
name you in this terrible divorce it's
possible but why and what you just told
me happened before she married Albert
Fraser how can it possibly have
any what is it Daniel there's something
else something you've not told me
Elizabeth what is it you're keeping from
me Daniel I demand to know very
well William their
son I'm Miss father your child now you
said you could be understanding too and
all this is going to come out before the
court you had to tell me didn't you
before I found out and you tried to
seduce me you wanted to seduce me just
that you could tell me this no Emma no
your child
oh I hate
you I hate
you TCH the Bon Mr L why
sir
sir very far nor and if we don't bring
in some more sale we'll be blown clear
to the Artic with this freak wind not
let for
days you thinking to relieve me of
command oh sorry
[Applause]
s well nothing sir only that snow when
it's blowing up right now
[Music]
[Music]
ice ice ice off the St
ball the wind's backing sir all and now
I need to be in Liverpool
well with no choice Mr BS we have to R
for Iceland in
[Music]
armor I'm far from sure a Judicial
separation is our wisest cause you mean
he's agreed to maintain me no no no I
mean he intends to sue even though he
has no certain case well then what do
you suggest Mr fellow as your lawyer I
would advise we cross petition Mr Fraser
for
divorce council's opinion is that any
action on your part for divorce would be
ill considered that's impertinent no no
no in the legal sense she deserted me
I'm afraid that your wife's desertion
does not constitute sufficient ground
for divorce her lawyer advises I wonder
if she went to a lawyer at subpoena fogy
and make public her unchastity with him
I shall sue for a divorce they cannot
yet Sue on the grounds of your your
desertion however your husband's
adultery adultery a few men are wholly
blameless now her relationship with Mr
fog her adultery with fogy no you were
not married and that doesn't count you
may be held to have condoned they will
want to get you into court perhaps an
attempt to have you declared an unfit
mother but she has always been a kind
and a loving mother it is what these
things may be shown to be in law it's a
nightmare more efficacious still might
be an action to have the child declared
illegitimate my son but he is not your
son oh dear Heaven the advantages of
such an action would be to present their
case our version of the facts before a
court of law Suba Daniel F and if they
will we could find that it will
strengthen our hand in the event of any
subsequent divorce action no I only want
my husband to maintain me I don't hate
her so much that I could do those things
against her immature this is the law but
will he ignore your advice no it must be
divorce or nothing well then you have
set the law in motion and we have
already served you with papers for
divorce however we shall lose I don't
care and we should
win Mr
bains Mr bains all hands on deck all

doing aboard your ship she was a
passenger passenger indeed now let me
tell you Daniel F no Miss Emma Kalen I
will not permit you to tell me not here
not in public you wish to raise your
voice like a fish wife then do so in the
privacy of my
office there nothing more than an
unfortunate coincidence you would not
trust her an inch on the way back from
Paris she took passage aboard the first
ship Bound for Liverpool she is a
faithless creature and has proved so in
the past as you well know may God
preserve me from spiteful and jealous
women I had reason for jealousy once or
do you choose to forget that she was
once carrying your child I would forget
the sooner we are not so bent on
constantly reminding me one reminder sir
has romantical Notions and a hoby Hoy
skirt that disgraces the name of
Womanhood we were aboard the ship for a
day and a night in the company of 20
seen and and other passengers and I can
assure you that at all times both Mrs
Fraser and myself behav with the utmost
circumspection you're sure it was not
but a coincidence of course it was
a although I wouldn't put it past James
on needing what well he Al but Fraser
would like nothing better than the cause
a rift between you and I Mr anan's away
and Mr Fraser is too honorable a
gentleman to risk his wife's reputation
then it was a coincidence are we agreed
sorry Daniel I know I'm greeneyed with
jealousy but I can't help
it poor Emma well there's only one way
you can save me from the Wilds of
Designing Women you must you must name
the
day I do wish you had consulted me
earlier Mrs oin it was nothing doctor

cramps would you imagine to be one of
the disorders to which your sex is
subject H yes I will not hide it me Mrs
Onin this disorder is of a more serious
nature and is directly connected with
your re's carriage and you know your
medical history over the past four years

Peril you have a fine house servants to

refreshment I regret my religion forbids

privilege of meeting Mr James oen oh
well I'm afraid you've uh you've made a
fruitless Journey sir my brother is away
yes I understand uh that's why I came to
see you oh well if I can be of any
assistance yes I a shareholder of the
onidan steamship
line well Sir Mr Mitchell I am very
pleased to make your
acquaintance sorry yes during my
brother's absence I am responsible for
the business Affairs of the company a
responsibility you share with a Mr
Fraser and uh your chairman Mr fogy
that's right right yes thank oh
George do Onan line directors normally
conduct their business in the street Mr
Onan I do ask your pardon sir would you
come this way please this is my wife Mr
Mitchell oh I do apologize for the
disorder Mr Mitch oh on the contrary
it's I should apologize for calling at
such an inconvenient moment I do
understand Mrs onen that business does
not stand upon ceremony
oh oh yes would you care for a glass of
wine sir well that's very kind of
you oh excuse me thank you it is so
inconvenient you simply have nowhere to
turn excuse me oh
Rachel so you're a shareholder you said
then Mr Mitchell well you've uh you've
invested wisely sir I think not sir the
company has as yet paid not one penny in
dividends oh well it will sir it will
but not until the ship is launched and
um if you'll forgive me saying so Mr
anadian that seems to be taking an
unconscionably long
time your health
sir yes well of course um Mr Fraser is
our designer and I can assure you that I
have the utmost confidence in him yes I
have taken the liberty of calling upon
Mr Fraser anded upon Mr fogot here but
uh neither gentleman was at home the
matter therefore rests with you Mr onen
oh
oh what
matter how unforgivably remiss of me no
I wish to dispose of my
shares oh well then if that is your wish
sir far be it from me to
uh how many shares do you have on offer
5,000 5,000 but that's the 5% that James
needs in order to regain control of the
company thank you Sarah it's all right
Robert I can Mar
it so you have shares on offer
sir and what price are you asking they
an offer to the highest bid
[Music]
oh good morning good morning Mr and Mrs
Fraser yes I've just come from uh Mr
Robert onan's
premises my name is Mitchell the highest
bidder it's outrageous well who can
blame the man he knows well enough that
whoever gains control of those shares
gains control of the company we can't
possibly afford to buy oh it's out of
the question I mean all these extensive
repairs and Al erations will take every
penny of our Capital oh where is James
why isn't he here that fogy will seize
this opportunity with both hands you
mark my words and James has nobody to
blame but himself excuse me you find a
way of forting the blame onto me you
mark my words well what can you do the
price that Mr Mitchell is asking is
quite beyond our reach and even if we
had the money I mean I mean fogy without
bits
well Sarah there's there's only one
thing for
it what are you thinking of
now well I'll have to send a cable to
James tell him to come home straight
away and whatever happens Mr Mitchell
must not find out that we don't have the
money but he'll call again of course he
will but we won't be here
what we're taking a holiday and we're
taking it now
I approached the other shareholders and
uh persuaded them to sell to me and now
you're offering them for £10,000 when
you paid only £2,500 for them whoever
controls those shares Madam controls the
company in your husband's position I
would have thought the sum of 10,000 a
remarkably small amount to pay in the
furtherance of a lifetime's ambition I
don't know what my partner's reaction to
your offer would be but in my opinion
the shares are not worth half that sum
how much do you suppose they might be
worth to um Mr foggery
have you already approached him oh not
yet but you intend to obviously I must
warn you sir that Mr foget is a man with
a hasty temper should you have the
temerity to approach him the way you've
approached me he may very well pit you
through the nearest window I shall
simply have to take that risk a bit good
day you
sir just a moment Mr Mitchell
it would appear sir that you're not
particularly well informed the struggle
for control of the onidan line is
between James onidan and Daniel fogy
will those two gentlemen hold the pur
drings so you've nothing to lose and
perhaps much to gain by awaiting James
onan's return thank you Mrs Fraser
perhaps I might take your
advice good day to
you I cannot see what you hope to gain
Beyond setting jail and foggy at one
another's throats James has yet to be
bested in a bargain he will rest those
shares from Mr Mitchell by fair means or
fell I don't know how anyone can
possibly work in that Pandemonium ifes
the imagination and that heat it must
ruin the
listen what is it the steam
Hammer I started on the
qu why Mr
property you overstep your Authority
Fraser ah the great pan Janam himself
hot fooot from the yards in a d I
understand that you've given
instructions on behalf of the company
delay the he of me steamship The Works
in progress on Whose authorization M
contract stipulates that I'm to design
and build a steamship the designs are
completed but the specifications have
yet to be agreed upon they have been
agreed upon between myself and Mr Robert
and need it Robert we're merely carrying
out James's
instructions do you have these
instructions in writing Robert has I'd
take it up with him if I will you
come not so fast Fraser
you're disturbing the cut of me suit if
You' oblige Me by removing your hand
I'll overlook your borish behavior for
once if you pair of Ls must brawl kindly
do it in
private I'll putt your arm if you
[Music]
please it is a pleasure to transact
business with one of such delicate
understanding come well I require cobal
hides Ivory it shall all be
arranged and in return you shall perform
for me one small service oh a party of
my countrymen wish to make the holy
pilgrimage to Mecca pilgrims Bard a
British
ship is not the harbor of Zanzibar full
of dows only to eager for such traffic a
DA will carry but a dozen and the
journey North to the port of jida is
long and
arduous well I had hope to go south bya
the cape you know and then on home why
not to return by way of sewi a sailing
ship through the SE Canal out of the
question it is not unknown a steam tug
could tow your ship through the dog
that'll blow pretty all in my profits it
would considerably shorten your
journey it's a telegraph address to you
it has come by way of your
it by you
ad buy at once whatever the
cost your Excellency I must return to
Liverpool at once then you must go by
way of
sew it seems Allah the wise has resolved
our
problem very well Al I'll take your
pilgrims £4
ahead agreed cash in
advance what ails you
child what really heils you I've told
you so you have but at times you can be
as close mouthed as that husband of
yours where the devil is he on his way
home Robert sent him a telegraph I have
little regard for the Rogue but i' give
a gida at this moment to see him
standing in that
doorway you pass me my
purse
yeah good luck money I lost all teeth
for charity oh it's not charity you know
perfectly well that James and I were
first married he struck a bargain that
you would not want in your old age well
he's kept to that bargain I'll Grant him
that I have everything I need and
nothing I want I'll become a
well-dressed beggar with his Anderly
outstretched would you prefer a
settlement say two ginies each and every
week well you'd never agree to that
it'll be arranged in writing this time
you're W it why and write it for your
own Peace of Mind of course why else for
yours perhaps you're assembling child oh
take your guinea and go father I know it
must be burning a hole in your pocket
that son-in-law mine has kept to the
letter of his bargain simply because
you've always been here to see that he
does is that your fear I don't know what
you mean
oh oh my medicine can you pass my
medicine it's that little brown
bottle blood them is the pain as bad as
that then oh oh There child there there
there the time for prayer approaches
would you be kind enough to indicate the
direction of Mecca captain
thank you Captain Allah will reward you
you might use your influence and ask for
some wind the wind blows where and when
Allah Wills these pilgrims of yours all
Negroes all True Believers are equal in
the eyes of
Allah your True Believers are going to
have some difficulty directing their
prayers aren't they
directing being enclosed as they are how
can they tell North from south or east

West they are
instructive s if you've turned me into a
slaver your all had better be forgiving
and
merciful I

Captain Baines so I will thank you to
see that our luggage is safely stowed
aboard the Charlotte roads thank you

profit and thank Allah for his
beneficent Mercy for once I'm not

the
Pandora she's quite beautiful I've had a
completely refitted and rigged she'll
show a clean P of eels to any ship out

name more like a rich man's yacht than a
working ship such
luxury and who is to command this Jewel
of the Seas me you she's to set sail for
the
Mediterranean how would you like to
spend your honeymoon a
border oh
Daniel well that would be the most
perfect
beginning and I accused you of being

just sign this Vehicles clearance won't
take
long and the other form if you will sir
uh just sign there please
sir now what's all this about dizzy
spell and fainting fits have nothing
more than a gout of the stomach is that
what the doctor said so many words what
were his words female
complaint well what treatment did you
recommend time did you have a successful
Voyage James time if that's the best he
can do we'll get a second opinion I have
a patent medicine which I'm taking
regularly and he advised AR rest I can
be
arranged yeah how would you like to go
to haran take the waters eh take the
James think of the cost I am to pay a
man for professional advice and then not
take it that's poor business I can rest
just as easily at home and I have a poor
enough opinion of medicinal Waters
without wanting to sample them you know
tell me about the seiz
canal they say it's one of the eight
Wonders of the World what's it really
like no just a ditch nothing
more now you tell me
what's all this about a need and shares
being on offer eh it's true James a man
named Mitchell holds the balance of
5,000 shars he's only waiting for your
return so you and fogy can bid against
each other well then the sooner the
better I'll arrange for the three of us
to meet this afternoon I doubt Mr fogy
will'll be available oh why not I've
just come from his
wedding
see so uh foty now is Kalen and Company
with the wealth of that company in his
hands so how can you possibly hope to
outbid
him Hammer be reasonable it won't take
long you intend to take yourself off to
a business meeting on my wedding day and
you asked me to be reasonable Emma Mr
Mitchell's waited this long surely can
wait a little longer not now James on
needing here look if I'm not there he'll
persuade Mr Mitchell to sell him those
shares I thought you said you could
outbid him well I can't outbid him if
I'm not there but it is my wedding day
Emma my love I must be there don't you
see whoever gains control of those
shares gains control of the only need in
line the hour no longer my love I
promise Mr Mitchell how did you acquire
5,000 shares peace meal I approached the
other shareholders and bought them out a
few a few there took quite a risk didn't
you well it was a sporting risk course
gentlemen shall we commence the
bidding you paid uh £2,500 for those
shares I would say a reasonable offer
would be
£4,000 I had in mind a figure nearer
10,000 you're a rogue sir no wouldn't
agree Mr Mitchell strikes me every inch
a
sportsman he puts his money at risk and
now he expects to reap the reward eh
thank you Mr Onan you're a gentleman
after my own heart in return let me make
you a sporting gesture I'm prepared to
accept an opening bid of
£5,000
56 SP
need oh oh no it I'm sir this won't do
at all let me hear seven
Sir Mr Stan you disappoint me you do
indeed oh come I make a match of
it I'll make you a sporting gesture Mr
fog here imagines that he's a better
ship's Captain than myself without sail
you any day the week or needing no would
you care to put that to the test at the
moment this business is concluded with
pleasure you're in the tea business I
understand Mr Mitchell yes I am but I
don't see tea Clippers sail very soon to
collect the first of The Season's new
crop of tea now if Mr foggy here would
like to substantiate his boast I suggest
that we sail with them and each bring
back uh 500 tons of tea each for you
free of freight charges in return for my
shareholdings good Heavens know sir such
a venture would yield me less than the
amount I already been offered by Mr F
just a minute I haven't finished now
that cargo would bring you a profit of
say £5,000 now in addition and here's
your sportsmanship you sell your holding
at the original price of £5,000 to
whichever one of us gets back to
Liverpool first that'll give him a
profit of 10,000
bounds
well not the Sportsman that I took you
for
eh I shall leave you with Mr fog's first
offer of
6,000 uh just one moment
sir a
race one that you couldn't
lose I like the notion Mr f do you
accept the
challenge those Shares are as good as
mine what are your chances fog's got
nothing to touch the osbor fog's got the
Pandora ready to sail at a moment's
notice he's had completely rried I
should say that she is the fastest ship
out of Liverpool then I'd better start
packing right away packing yes
James you're not recovered well enough
yet totake a long Voyage Dr collister
recommended a complete rest I intend to
take his
advice she's recovered
[Music]
[Applause]

Baines right bring around Ste West our
West we'll head the Packer hi iser
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]

usan much more at stake this time hey
[Music]
I reckon we will out St po bar now

we'll be first in food chair never
fear only half the race ship that first
puts a line a short at Liverpool the win
huh you leave the sailing to me sir I
give you my word we'll be first home
with the tea you better be right Mr Beng
the winner controls the aned and L
steamship
company you comfortable yes thank you
James how long will it be now you've
asked me that same question every day
for the past
month I promise you our son will be born
in
Liverpool I have two reasons now for the
fast passage
eh and are you sure you're eaten enough
James I never stop eating well those
bouts of sickness you had before we left
home I told you at the time it was
nothing more than a woman's
a oh don't look so worried moment we
reach Fu chow you shall have the best
doctor available when will that be I'll
show you yeah no you sit where you are
here we are now I reckon foget is about
two days of stern of us we should be in
F CH within about 48 hours then we'll be
loaded no would bound before he get his
Mor in lands out well don't be
overconfident James the teac crop may
not be ready oh yes it will our cable
from Liverpool requesting our agent to
all 10,000 cases against our coming
whatever the cost we should win this
race then and then Albert should build
not one but a fleet of
steamships for our sun iner
[Music]
I reckon on Eden's got the legs of us I
but we'll show him a trick or two yet Mr
Bunny I keep every stitch on her
in uh four or five days we shall be in
fow the mate says James onen might be
there in
two he's outsmarted and out sailed you
and I can't imagine what you find so
amusing in this
situation it is my money you're gambling
with remember our money
dear sometimes I think that's the only
reason you married
me
Emma stop being childish
all right what is it this
time so gross Little Miss Precious
mustn't be touched have you forgotten
we're
married I'm sorry Daniel a sorry for
yourself why shouldn't I be what sort of
a honeymoon is this cooked up together
in a Ship's
Cabin what do you expect on your
honeymoon to to bring all your friends
along with us you
[Music]
[Applause]
[Music]
one pound a ton I'm sure my principle
will raise no objection and uh your
principal is Mr Mitchell uh Mr
Mitchell's reputation is quite well
known with us but he does seem in an
extraordinary hurry to have his shipment
this year I know there is always a
demand for the first of the new crops
but
uh what how do yourself Captain cable is
from Liverpool price apparently no
object and we also have instructions
from Kalen and Company of Liverpool to
load one of the crack tea Clippers
seemingly rerooted from Yokohama and
keep her standing
by C shifted youself the Viper she's wor
just aern of you her Captain has
instructions that he's to change over
with a captain foggot of the Pandora the
moment she
arrives Dev four months at Sea and now
you expect me simply to transfer from
one ship to another without time to set
foot on
land really it's monstrous so James
onan's outsmarted me as he well we shall
be sailing for Liverpool before he's
even begun
loading I might have known foger it have
some trick up his
sleeve a Viper huh new clipp was rightly
named and she's a flyer fogy will be out
with the tide in the morning that'll
give him at least two days lead I know
that well you're the old China land what
do we do two things sir the barometers
dropping and I heard the Rumble of
Thunder in the nor West this morning and
some flashes of lightning in their
mountains so I looked over the side
there was quite a quantity of yellow mud
swelling around the river now I think
we're do for the first of the
monsoon can't be good
jamaer it uh keeps the fever off get up
with it
B if Mr foged saes before us in the
monsoon he'll need to navigate very
cautiously cuz this river is full of
spits and sandars and he can't use his
speed until he's clear and that'll take
him 12 hours at least that applies to
both of us so where's the advantage well
in the old days sir we learned a trick
there used to be fleets of Chinese War
junks lying and wait for us down river
when the monsoon breaks the head waters
come roaring down in full space
and when that river runs it takes
everything before it including them
treasur sandbag so what we used to do we
used to set our storm cameras only and
hang on to our moing lines and when the
wind came Cho through it and away we
go could work before fogy knows it we'll
be snapping at his heels there Bel here
sir this his only eeden and the younger
to
be now you suggested two things B what
was the other one eh well I had a close
look at Mr fog's Viper and I think he's
made a mistake in choosing her for this
race you do do you she carries a pair of
canvas but she's broaden the beam she's
the heavy weather ship and raar en for
she snore along and leave us standing
but on this passage we're in for our
Shad of fitful winds so we change our
four and Main yards round you see
that'll give us NE to two WIS of canas
on the four now that's perfect for light
winds once in the Indian Ocean we change
them back again
all right then I'll take your advice
around out in the morning and put the
work to hand but we won't change back
we'll rig an extra main yard an extra
six fet either side but a sudden Squall
and take the sticks right out of his
what's a chance we'll have to take I
intend to win this race K I water my son
will be born in
Liverpool I can't find anything
seriously wrong a light fever perhaps
but uh I recommend butley sedative with
a little opium as a sovereign remedy
three times a day oh my fee will be $5
for the consultation and uh half a
dollar for the
specific oh thank you
kindly I'll call every day until you
sail that won't be necessary we sail
with the tide good day to you Doctor oh
good
day sail with the tide now no more
Tantrums if you please i' much work to
do and no time to deal with fit of the
vapors you couldn't be so
cruel I require rest and comfort and I
must go
ashore I will not stay another minute
aboard this ship yes you will Emma I'm
going ashore that won't stop
me you mean you'd Sail Without Me have
no intentions of losing this race on the
whims of a spoiled child I forbid you to
sail you forbid nothing
I am Ken of company from now on I make
the
decisions weale with the
tie you still suffer from the pain Mrs
anen a little more than a little a
fancy child will it be all right oh
you'll have a bunny be no doubt about
that but it's not the Baba we're
concerned about now is it well that is
my soul concern then it shouldn't have
been all life is precious including your
own is the risk then that great what can
I say that your own medical man didn't
tell you back in
Liverpool your husband's a heartless
fool he doesn't know you did not tell
him he Longs for a son did you think to
give him a
choice but you have a strong spirit and
you have a fair chance once you're back
in Liverpool you have the benefit of the
best medical attention I hear they've
got chlorop for and
antiseptics medicine's made great
strides since my young days
out here on the coast a man loses touch
in the meantime here's a a Chinese
concoction I highly recommend it
whenever you feel the pain oh it no no
it won't harm the baby one little quit
take it as
required well good day to you Mrs anen
thank you doctor and remember from this
day forward it's your health that
matters your health nothing else tell
your husband that

to
burst the No Name indeed
when did you Char her a few months ago
she was chared for the frasers with our
money didn't cost you or your brother a
penny piece it must have cost you a
pretty penny though I mean chugging up
and down the Mery without so much as a
ha of the cargo I didn't intend to use
her for to carry cargo she's used solely
for experimental purposes what for for
the Golden Nugget you mean well what
else there's a question of a a suitable
steering engine for example higher
boiler pressures but how do you intend
to recover your costs a ship that goes
with without cargo eat money it's my
loss no one else's I'm not accountable
to the nans for my personal expenditure
and more fool you take my advice Albert
get rid of the No Name get rid of it
immediately transfer her to the anian
steamship company don't you see let the
company make a pay away yes we'll we'll
ship out Slate from from North Wales
call across to irand yes and you can
carry out your experiments at the same
time you seem uncommonly considerate in
interest from we'll carry a few
passengers and all Liverpool hollyhead
cork there's a growing trade in
passengers you know oh I see with food
and stores supplied by Robert and Eden
Chandler why not shipping is our
business I'll get the necessary

you have what you remember Jessup indeed
I do the leader of that confounded
Seaman strike and you have the temerity
to bring such a man into my house our
house Albert and I have him hidden in
our Stables are you aware of the
penalties for Aiden and aein an escaped
convict he should never have gone to
prison in the first place even James saw
some justice in their Seaman strike
James saw profit for himself jessup's
wife died in penury and his children
were in the poor house you should have
thought of wife and family first that's
not an argument likely to appeal to a
desperate man it's impossible for him to
stay
here I know you'll think of
something he's a sailing Shipman but the
docks will be
watched and he'll have no papers he'll
require a new identity and a new
profession
it is possible for your sake not his I
knew you'd think of
something well you will ring for tea
while I'll arrange to ship the fell
across to Ireland thank you Albert but
he will work Mark you
Joseph and you have the Arron to sit
there and tell me to my face that you're
harboring a criminal I trust you and
Robert can keep still tongues in your
heads for once my husband is far too
much the gentleman ever to voice his
opinion of his sister's criminal
escapades good I suggest you follow his
example then Sarah and why should I if
you do not consider it to be your wely
duty to conform to your husband's wishes
then I suggest you give heed to the old
adedge mud sticks it will not brush off
on us if any information be laid you may
be sure that it will
Sarah Elizabeth you would embroil us

well gentlemen you both have copies of
our agreement yes Mr Mitchell I'm sure
the terms are more than familiar in
essence the winner to receive from me
the balance of a need in line steamship
shares at the agreed price of
£5,000 I claim the race but I understood
Mr onen ship was the first to
dock well only by the exercise of his
usual sharp practice uh didn't stop to
pick up the pilot thus infringing Harbor
regulations I claim the race by default
I see is this true M Dron in did you
dock without a pirate had no choice my
wife was in labor so their Shares are
mine we prepared to abandon a race
already W sir it was not already won if
I hadn't stopped to pick up the pilot I
could have out sailed him right the Mery
you couldn't out sell him boat it
the first ship to put a line as Shore
well there's nothing in this document
concerning pilot
well there is nothing in this document
concerning wives being in labor if Mr
Anin wishes to incur the wroth of the
harbor authorities that's entirely his
own Affair I'm a sporting man myself and
uh I admire a man prepared to Hazard all
whatever the reason
what it's implicit that we must comply
with har regulations I'm sorry I judge
Mr oin to be the winner
