“To the Porpoise,” says Catty. “It said we were headed for here, and to keep track of us.”
“Um....” says Mr. Browning, and he called to Mr. Topper. “Hey, listen to this news,” says he, and then told him.

“There,” says he, “didn’t I tell you? When Jonas P. Dunn goes after a thing, he goes after it.”
“But he doesn’t always get it,” says Mr. Browning.
“Say,” says Catty, “is it fair to ask a question?”
“Maybe,” says Mr. Browning.
“Where are we heading?”
“Nantucket.”
