Part of the boat's crew were taken on board in the same way, and then the gig was hoisted up to the davits with the rest in her.
Before the barge was allowed to come up under the counter, the officer of the deck wore ship, so as to bring the port quarter, on which the boat was to be suspended, on the lee side.

Her passengers were taken on deck as those from the gig had been, and she was hoisted up.
"Mr.Kendall, I congratulate you upon the success of your labors," said Mr.Lowington, when the second lieutenant reached the deck.

"You have handled your boat exceedingly well, and you deserve a great deal of credit." "That's a fact, sir," added Boatswain Peaks, touching his cap.

"I hardly spoke a word to him, and I've seen many a boat worse handled in a sea." Paul blushed at the praise bestowed upon him, but he was proud and happy to have done his duty faithfully on this important occasion.

The same commendation was given to the first lieutenant, after the barge had been hauled up to the davits, and the order given for the ship to fill away again.
The women and children were conducted to the professors' cabin as soon as they came on board, and the seamen were taken into the steerage.
