The peril past he confides to his Master's Mate that his wife is about to give birth to a boy. A girl is born, and in his wrath he decrees not only that she shall be named 'Petronella' after the detested ketch but that she shall be christened on board her...."; top and bottom of spine are slightly rubbed; a little fading to spine; scattered foxing to prelims and occasionally to pages; browning to endpapers
