Excerpt from For Daily Bread: And Other Stories

A German steamer, the "Blucher," from Hamburg, was on her way to America.

It was the fourth day of her voyage and the second since she had left the green shores of Ireland behind and was on the open sea. From her deck, as far as the eye could reach, nothing was to be seen, but an expanse of greyish-green water, ploughed into deep, foam-crested furrows, getting darker in the distance and melting into the horizon covered with fleecy clouds.
