It's going to be a fine ship! cried Tom enthusiastically, one day, as he went to the far side of the ship to get a perspective view of it.

We'll make good time in this.

Are you going to sail all the way to Africa--across the ocean--in her?
gpt
Oh, no, replied Tom.
human
I believe she would be capable of taking us across the ocean, but there is no need of running any unnecessary risks. I want to get her safely to Africa, and have her do stunts in elephant land.
gpt
Then what are your plans?
human
We'll put her together here, said Tom,
gpt
Good idea, commented Mr. Durban.
human
Now, if you've no objections, I'm going to do a little practice with the electric rifle.
gpt
Go ahead, assented Tom.

There comes Ned Newton; he'll be glad of a chance for a few shots while I work on this new propeller motor. It just doesn't suit me.
