Barstow ? " '* Ye-ah. " " Ye-ah, I know him. What about 'im ? " " Wa-al, jest before we left, he was tellin' us a yarn about one o' these whales. " " Uh-huh, I know. He wa'n't slow, s'pose yeh tell it. " " Wa-al, Mart said that one time they got on to one of 'em, jest as we did jest now, but, instead of sendin' their lances into him, as we did, they chucked an iron into 'im from one boat. " Wal, suh, Mart said that whale jest lit out like a streak, and in less than ten minutes they was out of s...ight o' the ship and still a-goin'. He said they actually did n't see a thing o' that whale after they struck 'im ; and the spray from the boat was that Hammerheads and Finbacks 251 dummed fine it looked like steam, and in fifteen minutes the nails was drawin' out of the bottom o' the blamed boat. The water ketched under the nail-heads and yanked 'em square out, the whale went so, and, by gum, they had to cut and let the critter go, to save the boat. Them nails was jest bein' pulled clean out of the bottom of the boat and they had to let go or go to the dogs.
