Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Peter Simple, And, the Three Cutters, Vol. 2
We were all anxious to know what sort of a person our new captain was, whose name was Kearney; but we had no time to ask the midshipmen, except when they came in charge of the boats which brought his luggage; they replied generally, that he was a very good sort of fellow, and there was no harm in him. But when I had the night watch with Swinburne, he came up to me, and said, Well, Mr Simple, so we have a new captain. I sailed with him for two years in a brig.
