This glimpse I had caught of his other side must have emboldened me, for I resolved to speak to him about the money I had lost. ¡¡¡¡'I have been robbed,' I said to him a little later, when I found him pacing up and down the poop alone. ¡¡¡¡'Sir,' he corrected, not harshly, but sternly. ¡¡¡¡'I have been robbed, sir,' I amended. ¡¡¡¡'How did it happen?' he asked. ¡¡¡¡Then I told him the whole circumstance: how my clothes had been left to dry in the galley, and how, later, I was nearly beaten by the cook when I mentioned the matter. ¡¡¡¡He smiled at my recital. ¡¡¡¡'Pickings,' he concluded; 'Cooky's pickings. And don't you think your miserable life worth the price? Besides, consider it a lesson. You'll learn in time how to take care of your money for yourself. I suppose, up to now, your lawyer has done it for you, or your business agent.'
