Quotation from: Tales of the Fish Patrol

Written by: Jack London


The Centipede was the first to be pulled aboard, and he came
willingly, though he objected when the constable put the handcuffs
on him. Barchi was next hauled in, quite meek and resigned from
his soaking. When we had ten in, our boat we drew back, and the
second Whitehall was loaded. The third Whitehall received nine
prisoners only--a catch of twenty-nine in all.


"You didn't get the Porpoise," the Centipede said exultantly, as
though his escape materially diminished our success.
