Sinopsis
Excerpt from Longman's Magazine, Vol. 3: November, 1883 to April, 1884
My name is Jack Seymour, and in such-and-such a year I was five-and-twenty years old. Were yarns of this kind embellished with cuts I might save myself a troublesome spell of description by handing the printers a portrait of myself as I was in those days. Five feet ten inches my height was, and though I had knocked off the sea, after seven and a half years of it, in eighteen hundred and something odd, old ocean had left such an impress on me that I looked as much a sailor after three years of shore going life as ever I did in the jumper of an apprentice, riding down a topgallant stay, or in the blue serge or pilot-cloth of a second mate, stumping the weather-side of the quarter-deck.

Excerpt from Longman's Magazine, Vol. 3: November, 1883 to April, 1884
Accordingly I hired a furnished bedroom and sitting-room in the West End of London, paid a small subscription, and became a member of a little club, which brought me acquainted with a number of very good fellows, so that I had companions enough. And for a year or two this sort of life suited me very well. It was an immense escape from the old servitude of the sea; I was my own master, could do what I pleased, go where I liked, was responsible to no man and I was never tired of thinking of my liberty and enjoying it.
