The vessel was newly painted, trim and trig in appearance and\u003cbr\u003ewas seemingly of about two thousand tons register. Amidships was a\u003cbr\u003esingle yellow funnel. From the aftermost of the two masts fluttered a\u003cbr\u003eblue flag with a square of white in the center. The reporter knew that\u003cbr\u003ethis was the \"Blue Peter,\" flown in token that the steamer was about\u003cbr\u003eto sail.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut the steamer, which bore the name of _Northerner_, flew no house\u003cbr\u003eflag to indicate the line she belonged to, nor in the shipping news of\u003cbr\u003ethe day did her name appear. The reporter scented a \"story\" at once.\u003cbr\u003eFrom some hangerson about the dock he found out that the strange craft\u003cbr\u003ehad formerly been the _James K. Thompson_, of San Francisco, in the\u003cbr\u003ecoastwise trade. She had been refitted and equipped at the Aetna Iron\u003cbr\u003eWorks by her purchaser, a Mr. Chisholm Dacre. That was all that the\u003cbr\u003elongshoremen could tell him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the bridge was a stalwart form in a goldlaced cap indicating the\u003cbr\u003erank of captain. By his side stood a well-built man of middle age with\u003cbr\u003ea crisp iron-gray beard neatly clipped and a sunburned face, from\u003cbr\u003ewhich two keen blue eyes twinkled quizzically as he gazed down at the\u003cbr\u003efigure of the reporter on the dock.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Are you Mr. Dacre?\" hailed the reporter, guessing that the bearded\u003cbr\u003eman was the _Northerner's_new owner.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"That is my name. What can I do for you?\" was the rejoinder.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"My name is Jessop. Ship-news man for the _Post-Intelligencer_. Can I\u003cbr\u003ecome on board?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I am afraid not, Mr. Jessop,\" rejoined Mr. Dacre, whom our readers\u003cbr\u003eknow as the Bungalow Boys' uncle. \"What do you want?\"","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47161539264752,"sku":"2940014385848","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940014385848_p0.jpg?v=1763607509","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940014385848","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
