This was deposited upon the cabin floor and opened.
From it Frank took a diving suit, helmet and all.
He proceeded at once to don it.
“You are going to leave the boat, Frank?” asked Stanhope.
“Yes.”
“May I ask the privilege of accompanying you?”
“If you wish,” replied Frank; “but my purpose is to saw away the timbers which hold the Dolphin’s nose.”
“I can help you.”
“Yes.”
At once Stanhope proceeded to don another suit. Soon both were attired, ready to leave the boat.
