X Venables and the Lord and the Devil
Acting Lieutenant Venables was bringing the sloop Vive la France, prize of H.M.S Black Mariner, to anchor in Gibraltar Bay. He was nervous; if anyone had aske him if he thought that all the telescopes in the mediterranean fleet were trained upon him he would have laughed at the fantastic suggestion, but he felt as if they were. Nobody ever gauged more cautiously the strength of the gentle following breeze, or estimated more anxiously the distances between the big anchored ships of line, calculated more carefuly the space Vive la France would need to swing at her anchor. Matthews, his Petty officer, was standing forward awaiting the order to take the jib, and he acted quickly at Venables's hail. "Helm-a-lee," said Venables next. and Vive la France rounded into the wind. "Brail up!'. Vive la france crept forward, her momentum diminishing as the wind took her way off her. "Let go!" The cable growled a protest as the anchor took it out through the hawsehole- that welcome splash of the anchor, telling of the journey's end. Venables watched carefully while Vive La France took up her cable, and then relaxed a little. He hd brought the prize safely in. The Captain- Johnanthan Goldtimbers of H.M.S Black Mariner- had clearly not yet returned, so that it was venables's duty to report to the port admiral. "Get the boat hoisted out," he ordered, and then, remembering his humanitarian duty, 'And you can let the prisonrs up on deck" They had been battened down below for the last forty eight hours, because the fear of a recapture was the nightmare of every prizemaster. But here in the Bay with the Meditterranean fleet all round that dnager was at end. Two hands at the oars of the gig sent her skimming over the water, and in ten minutes venables was reporting his arrival to the admiral. "You say she shows a fair turn of speed?" said the lateer, looking over at the prize. "Yes, sir. And she's handy enough," said  Venables."I'll purchase her into the service. Never enough despatch vessles," mused the admiral.

But there was another letter, delivered at the same moment, which read with less elation, "Their Excellencies, Major General Sir Hawk and Lady Dalrymple, request the pleasure of Acting-Lieutenant Ishamel Venables's company at dinner today, at three o' clock, at government house". At the Government House the usal polished and languid aide-de-camp took charge of venables and led him forward.

I don't have any cellar on my ship". Mr. Venables wipe his mouth with the napkin and ate some mashed potatoes. Then Sir Hawk got up as everyone got up, "Here to our king, and we hope he still lives", then Lord Crossbones "Here to the dons, May hope they never leave St. Vincent", "Well bumper M'lord, To the dons!". The Next morning ishamek woke up and put on his uniform, then Mr. Kennedy saluted to him "Ah how was your night Mr. Venables?", He was tired and sleepy "Fine indeed archie but I am tired!".
