"Calking. He has so many drogers, there's work enough for him and others all the time."
"Does he treat him well?"
"Yes; feeds him well, and hires him holidays; does all he can to make him contented, for fear he will get away, but locks him up every night. Haven't you obtained information enough?"
"A few more questions. Does he often come to St. Pierre in his droger?"
"Once a fortnight."
"Does he have any particular one for his own use?"
"Yes."
"Is she any different from the rest?"
"She has a white streak, a red bead, and H. L. in her mainsail; the others are all black."
"Here is your money."
