What's this noise, here, sentry? who's that alongside?' ' I don't know, sir; it's some old girl says she wants her Jack. ' The lieutenant looked over into the boat ; but no sooner had* he cotched sight of the little punchy dame, than the man-ropes slid through his hand, and down he jumped into the cockle-shell ' What, my mother, is it you ?' cried he : ' I can hardly believe my eyes; they told me you were all dead; this is indeed a welcome surprise ; but come along, old lady, mount-a-reeveo' an...d he helped her up the side with the utmost care and attention. As soon as they had reached the deck, she threw her arms round the lieutenant's neck, and sobbed with joy. Then she gazed at him with a mother's pride, and again folded him to her heart ' Oh ! my Jack, my Jack ; now you glad my ould heart, and 1 shall follow your poor father to the grave in peace. ' The captain, officers, and men, stared with astonishment to see the round little personage, in her striped cotton jacket, short thick petticoats, and high-heeled shoes, hugging their first lieutenant (dressed in full uniform) round the neck ; and many began to laugh : but the working of nature cannot be suppressed ; the lieutenant felt it no disgrace to be born of honest, though poor parents ; and the rich feeling of filial love flowed without restraint.
