A Dream of the North Sea

CHAPTER V
10/25

If one of our men here breaks his arm, there is no hospital within less than two days' steam.

We don't want the public to think the fisher is a more deserving man than the slater; we want both men to have a fair chance.

Charitable men can see the slater, so they help him; they can't see the fisher without running the chance of being bruised and drenched, so they don't help him--at present.

They don't want good feeling; they want eyes, and we must act as eyes for them.

Women can only be useful on shore; you gentlemen must do everything that is needed out here.
