- I was sent to bed early, for I was only eight years old, but I could not sleep. I kept listening for the barking of the dogs. In the previous summer that was to me the usual sign that Jack had returned safe from fishing. It was now long after dark. My two elder brothers Ned and Sam came into the room with a lamp. We three slept in the same room, Ned and Sam in one large bed, I in a little timber bedstead with high sides, over which I had to climb in getting in and out.
