Explore "Thomas Jefferson Brown" by James Oliver Curwood on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The shore was a low, dark streak, four miles away -- an appalling distance away; but as she clung lightly to his shoulders, as Thomas Jefferson Brown told her to do, the horror and the fear of the big sea went out of Lady Isobel's brave little heart. She put her face down against his neck, pulled back his wet hair, and kissed him. God bless all such true hearts, wherever they be!
"We'll make it, Tom -- we'll make it!" she told him a hundred times.
