"Saving your presence, master Harry, I'll be d----d if I believe any such
thing. Here is Guinea, who is no better than a nigger, and therein far
from being a fitting messmate to a white man; but, being used to look at
his black face for four-and-twenty years, d'ye see, the colour has got
into my eye, and now it suits as well as another. Then, at sea, in a dark

are cousins, and that the dollar will go in snuff and strong drink among
the whole family--so, no great harm done, after all."
