Now the natives of Maria Theresa may have heard of this proceeding . '' `` Keep her off a point , '' called out John to the man at the helm . `` To-morrow at sunrise we shall know what we 're about .

In the forepart of the yacht the man on watch was pacing the deck , while aft , there was no one but the man at the wheel . At this moment Mary Grant and Robert came on the poop . The two children of the captain , leaning over the rail , gazed sadly at the phosphorescent waves and the luminous wake of the DUNCAN .
