CHAPTER XVI The night came on a hurricane, the sea was mountains rolling, Barnes Buntline turned his quid, and said to Billy Bowline, A strong souwesters blowing, Billy; cant you hear it roar now Lord help em, how I pities all unhappy folks on shore now. Old Song. The wind has for several days been petulant and uncertain, blowing first from this direction, then from that, and seeming to gather strength at each change. Three days back there was a choppy swell from the south, with a south by east wind blowing, and lightning flashing from the north. At midday the royals had, alas! to be furled, and then the top-gallants and outer jib.
