Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


And I might have known it would happen. At four yesterday morning I
relieved Mr. Pike. When in the darkness I came up to him at the
break of the poop, I had to speak to him twice to make him aware of
my presence. And then he merely grunted acknowledgment in an absent
sort of way.


The next moment he brightened up, and was himself save that he was
too bright. He was making an effort. I felt this, but was quite
unprepared for what followed.
