  1. Within thirty years Kingston wrote upwards of one hundred and thirty such books. He had a practical knowledge of seamanship, and his stories of the sea, full of thrilling adventures and hairbreadth escapes, exactly hit the taste of his boy readers. Characteristic specimens of his work are The Three Midshipmen; The Three Lieutenants; The Three Commanders; and The Three Admirals. He also wrote popular accounts of famous travelers by land and sea, and translated some of the stories of Jules Verne. This story begins: Hugh, my lad!

I, having a similar load, did the same-mine was lighter than his-and, Hugh not appearing, I went to the door and again called. No answer came.
