nine o'clock
At eight o'clock the first watch went on duty , in charge of Washburn , who was as competent to handle the vessel as I was . He had the chart , with the courses and distances marked on it . When I left the pilot-house , Cape Canaveral , or rather the light on it , was in sight . At nine o'clock we were just abreast of it , which proved that our dead reckoning was correct . From this point the course was south by east , one hundred and five miles . As soon as the Sylvania was on her new course , I left the pilot-house , where I had gone at nine , and turned in . I had slept all the night before , and the laughter of the younger of the passengers on the hurricane-deck above me did not permit me to sleep .
