Larry, as usual, made himself at home with his fiddle, and soon set the seamen and French prisoners Jigging away, as he had done on board other ships.

I thought it very good fun, so I ran down and began to dance, and who should I see but the admiral and captain and old Rough-and-Ready, each with a black partner, and there we were Jigging away right merrily, till I awoke, to find myself in the stern-sheet of the boat, and to see Nettleship steering, while the notes of Larry's fiddle sounded in my ears.

If Dan Hoolan hasn't hove it overboard, I'll be after setting the men a-Jigging this very evening, supposing we haven't to fight the French, or do any other trifle of that sort!"
