“Describe the man.”
Frank did so.
When he finished the mate said:
“We did have such a man aboard.”
“Boarded you without baggage just as you left port?”
“Yes, that’s the man, but he has gone, of course.”
“Do you know where?”
“To Jerusalem, in a boat for Jaffa.”
“Are you sure?”
“Positive, for our captain went with him.”
