Présentation de l'éditeur

Cap n Jonadab and me went to the post-office that night; we wan texpecting any mail, thats sartin. I guess likely we done it for the reason the feller that tumbled overboard went to the bottom twas the handiest place to go. Anyway we was there, and I was propping up the stove with my feet and holding down a chair with the rest of me, when Jonadab heaves along side flying distress signals. He had an envelope in his starboard mitten, and, coming to anchor with a flop in the next chair, sets shifting the thing from one hand to the other as if it twas red hot.
