About this book
Square and Compasses or Building the House is by Oliver Optic. Instruction in swimming had been continued on every suitable day, and as the boys were deeply interested in this amusement, they soon became very expert in the art. An excursion to Sandy Beach had been arranged for the day, and Matt Randolph tells the fellows to hurry up because it is a four-mile pull. Lew Shoreham says he does not know that he cares about going, and objects to being dressed up like a monkey.
Matt Randolph tells the others he sees they are trying to get up a rebellion, and says he does not object to the uniform and thinks the regulation requiring it is a very reasonable one. The wharf had been finished according to Bolly Millweed's plan by the middle of May. The architect fixed the position of the caisson with the compass from the shore, and the Sylph towed rafts of refuse stone to the enlarged caisson, which was sunk into position.
