Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


I know that this morning he spent hours in the lazarette with the
steward and the cook, overhauling and checking off from the lists of
the Baltimore agents. And I know that they came up out of the
lazarette, the three of them, dripping with perspiration and baffled.
The steward has raised the hypothesis that, first of all, there were
extra stores left over from the previous voyage, or from previous
voyages, and, next, that the stealing of these stores must have taken
place during the night-watches when it was Mr. Pike's turn below.
