fancy that we don't know how to use them?"
"You must have strong reasons for looking so deeply into the movements of
strangers on the land."
"Hum! Perhaps we expect our cargo from the country. But I suppose you have
not come so far in the dark to look at our manifest. You would see the
Captain?"
"Do I not see him?"
"Where?" demanded the other, with a start that manifested he stood in a
salutary awe of his superior.
"In yourself."
"I! I have not got so high in the books, though my time may come yet, some
fair day. Hark ye, friend; you passed under the stern of yonder ship,
which has been hauling into the stream, in coming out to us?"
"Certainly; she lies, as you see, directly in my course."
"A wholesome-looking craft that! and one well found, I warrant you. She

the coast, and the strong arm often does as much as the right. Our owners,
therefore, I believe, think it quite as well there should be no lack of
guns and ammunition on board."
"They should also give you people to work them."
"They have forgotten that part of their wisdom, certainly."

The group blends samples, acoustic and electronic instrumentation, and singing from a revolving cast of vocalists.
