Excerpt from Roy of Roy's Court, Vol. 2
I liked my ship and I liked my crew. I was so delighted with my promotion and prospects that I should not have quarrelled with them though the Kangaroo had been old and leaky and the hands mutinous and incompetent. But the brig was well found and a good sailer, and by the time we made the Egyptian coast my ship's company was as smart and well disciplined as any in His Majesty's service.
