Tom Starboard and Jack Halyard by William D. Harris

Tom Starboard and Jack Halyard talked of old times together. Tom was clean and healthy, but Jack was weary of life. When Tom mentioned drinking, Jack knew that “grog” was at the bottom of his troubles. Jack’s life had hit bottom and he felt guilty about his mother whom he neglected. Tom helped him turn his life around with religion and clean living.
