Excerpt from Under Rocking Skies

Suddenly he leaned forward with quick ened interest as the door Of his neighbor's house opened, and there stepped forth a short, stout man of sixty, who stood a mo ment for a last word and then hurried down the boxwood-lined path. He, too, was clearly a sailor: he walked with his feet far apart, like a man SO habituated to the rolling deck that it seemed a waste of time and energy to alter his gait on the rare occasions when he trod the firm ground. Medbury perceived that his face wore a look Of placid satisfac tion, and with the tightening Of the lines Of his own to an unspoken resolution, he hurried through the house and across the yard, and, vaulting the low dividing fence, approached his neighbor's back door.
