As soon as he had appeared, two large sailboats put out to meet him; one contained Mr. O'Brien and the other a representative of the Dey, and it was a race to see which one would arrive first. O'Brien's sailboat; how- ever, caught a bad current by keeping too close to the shore, and the regent's boat was the first alongside. Bain- bridge received the court officer without much ceremony, and was rather amused to notice that the effect of seeing the returned embassy depressed the very consequenti...al individual.

It surely must be inconvenient, his High Mighti- ness fears, for the officers to have communication with the shore." As the messenger was still speaking O'Brien came on board.
