Excerpt from Captain Gault: Being the Exceedingly Private Log of a Sea-Captain
I make it a general rule, though, to say NO to these requests, for it's bad policy to mix up business and pleasure; and I've no use for a woman when it comes to sharing a secret with her. She's so apt to be a bit mixed in her ideas of fair play.

Excerpt from Captain Gault: Being the Exceedingly Private Log of a Sea-Captain
It's all rot to say a woman can't keep a secret. She can! She could keep a secret till Old Nick turned gray, begging for it, if it suited her. But that's just the trouble! You never know when it's going to stop suiting her to keep mum. If she gets the notion there's more cash for her in talk, than in keep ing quiet, she'll pull the lid off and let the secret pop out, regardless of the hole you may get shoved into as a result.
