About this book
Outward Bound, or Young America Afloat, is by Oliver Optic and is described as A Story of Travel and Adventure. Mr. Lowington says he must do his duty without regard to consequences, and says he will be obliged to take his nephew out of Mr. Baird's institution. The principal of the Academy tells Mr. Lowington that it would have been better for him if he had not prosecuted the boy for stealing the peaches.
The programme for the watches was carried out to the letter, but on the first night out the boys were too much excited by the novelty of the situation to be able to sleep much. At three bells in the first dog watch the land is distinctly visible, and it is the Island of Dursey, seen on the beam.
