two o'clock
My idea is , that we had better put all the wounded men into the launch , man the two cutters and jolly-boat , and tow her off . And , Mr Simple , instead of keeping on this side , as they will expect in the batteries , let us keep close inshore , upon the near side , and their shot will pass over us . '' This advice was too good not to be followed . It was now two o'clock , and we had a long pull before us , and no time to lose . We lifted the dead bodies and the wounded men out of the two cutters and jolly-boat into the launch . I had no time for examination , but I perceived that O'Farrel was quite dead , and also a youngster of the name of Pepper , who must have smuggled himself into the boats . I did , however , look for Osbaldistone , and found him in the stern sheets of the launch .
