Excerpt from Palm Land: Or Dick Travers in the Chagos Islands "All hands! up anchor, a-ho-oy!" was the boatswain's hoarse call, and leaning over the railing on the deck of the "Andromeda, " Dick waved his hat to Daisy and grandfather Milly on shore, as that neat little vessel glided smoothly out of Boston harbor. When the flutterings of the white handkerchiefs on shore could no longer be distinguished, our hero turned his attention to what was going on about him on deck. Sailors were hurrying hither and thither, executing rapidly-given orders that were to him unintelligible, but the sailors themselves received the greatest share of his attention.
