Quotation from: Elsinore

Written by: Jack London


Of course each morning before daylight we shall lower all this
apparatus to the deck, so that the men for'ard will not guess what we
have up our sleeve, or, rather, what we have up on the trysail-stays.
Even to-day the little of our gear that has to be left standing
aroused their curiosity. Head after head showed over the edge of the
for'ard-house as they peeped and peered and tried to make out what we
were up to. Why, I find myself almost looking forward to an attack
in order to see the device work.
