Présentation de l'éditeur

Nothing disturbed this awful silence, excepting now and then the bark of some profligate, night-walking dog, or the serenade of some romantic cat. They found the old fisherman waiting for them, smoking his pipe in the stern of his skiff, which was moored just in front of his little cabin. A pickaxeand spade were lying in the bottom of the boat, with a dark lantern, and a stone bottle of good Dutch courage, in which honest Sam, no doubt, put even more faith than the doctor inhis drugs. Thus, then, did these three worthies embark in their cockleshell of a skiff upon this nocturnal expedition. The tide was rising and running rapidly up theS ound. The current bore them along almost without the aid of an oar. They now landed, and lighting the lantern, gathered their various implements and proceeded slowly through the bushes.
