Read the paragraph from Stephen Crane's "The Open Boat." It would be difficult to describe the subtle brotherhood of men that was here established on the seas. No one said that it was so. No one
mentioned it. But it dwelt in the boat, and each man felt it warm him. They were a captain, an oller, a cook, and a correspondent, and they were
friends, friends in a more curiously Iron-bound degree than may be common. The hurt captain, lying against the water-jar in the bow, spoke always
In a low voice and calmly; but he could never command a more ready and swiftly obedient crew than the motley three of the dinghy. It was more
than a mere recognition of what was best for the common safety. There was surely in it a quality that was personal and heart-felt. And after this
devotion to the commander of the boat there was this comradeship that the correspondent, for instance, who had been taught to be cynical of
men, knew even at the time was the best experience of his life. But no one said that it was so. No one mentioned it.
