For
the
rest
of
the
party
,
the
preparations
were
soon
made
,
for
they
needed
much
less
.
Strong
horses
were
provided
for
Lord
Glenarvan
,
Paganel
,
Robert
Grant
,
McNabbs
,
and
John
Mangles
;
also
for
the
two
sailors
,
Wilson
and
Mulrady
,
who
were
to
accompany
their
captain
.
Ayrton
's
place
was
,
of
course
,
to
be
in
front
of
the
wagon
,
and
M.
Olbinett
,
who
did
not
much
care
for
equitation
,
was
to
make
room
for
himself
among
the
baggage
.
Horses
and
bullocks
were
grazing
in
the
Irishman
's
meadows
,
ready
to
fetch
at
a
moment
's
notice
.
After
all
arrangements
were
made
,
and
the
carpenter
set
to
work
,
John
Mangles
escorted
the
Irishman
and
his
family
back
to
the
vessel
,
for
Paddy
wished
to
return
the
visit
of
Lord
Glenarvan
.
Ayrton
thought
proper
to
go
too
,
and
about
four
o'clock
the
party
came
over
the
side
of
the
Duncan
.
They
were
received
with
open
arms
.
Glenarvan
would
not
be
outstripped
in
politeness
,
and
invited
his
visitors
to
stop
and
dine
.
His
hospitality
was
willingly
accepted
.
Paddy
was
quite
amazed
at
the
splendor
of
the
saloon
,
and
was
loud
in
admiration
of
the
fitting
up
of
the
cabins
,
and
the
carpets
and
hangings
,
as
well
as
of
the
polished
maple-wood
of
the
upper
deck
.
Ayrton
's
approbation
was
much
less
hearty
,
for
he
considered
it
mere
costly
superfluity
.
But
when
he
examined
the
yacht
with
a
sailor
's
eye
,
the
quartermaster
of
the
Britannia
was
as
enthusiastic
about
it
as
Paddy
.
He
went
down
into
the
hold
,
inspected
the
screw
department
and
the
engine-room
,
examining
the
engine
thoroughly
,
and
inquired
about
its
power
and
consumption
.
He
explored
the
coal-bunkers
,
the
store-room
,
the
powder-store
,
and
armory
,
in
which
last
he
seemed
to
be
particularly
attracted
by
a
cannon
mounted
on
the
forecastle
.
Glenarvan
saw
he
had
to
do
with
a
man
who
understood
such
matters
,
as
was
evident
from
his
questions
.
Ayrton
concluded
his
investigations
by
a
survey
of
the
masts
and
rigging
.
"
You
have
a
fine
vessel
,
my
Lord
,
"
he
said
after
his
curiosity
was
satisfied
.
"
A
good
one
,
and
that
is
best
,
"
replied
Glenarvan
.
"
And
what
is
her
tonnage
?
"
"
Two
hundred
and
ten
tons
.
"
