"Death is at all times solemn, but never so much as at sea. The man is near you, at your side, you hear his voice, and in an instant he is gone, and nothing but a vacancy shows his loss.. There is one less to take the wheel, one less to lay out with you upon the yard. You miss his form, and the sound of his voice, for habit had made them almost necessary to you, and each of your senses feels the loss."
