It had been foolish, perhaps, for him to go up to the store at such a time as this, but the mischief had been done.

And the result of his mental observations was that he went over to Captain Cephas's house to talk to him about it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
