Dan was now quick to see the point of Dave’s original suggestion, for he signalled:
“Do you remember Dalzell?”
“Danny Grin!” came the prompt response from the destroyer.
“Yes; he commands this tub,” Dan signalled back.
“Oh!” came the comprehending signal from the destroyer.
Then, after a brief interval:
“Danny Grin could always laugh his way into luck. Good-bye, and success!”
“Thank you,” Dan did not omit to signal back. “More of the same to you.”
The destroyer increased her speed and forged ahead, disappearing in the distance.
“He knew that Dan Dalzell could take care of himself,” Dave declared.
