"What do you mean you can't get any word of where they are now? They should be close to the docks right now for their families to see them so please tell me that I didn't hear you wrong. What did you say about my brother?" Gage asked, his back turned to the men who brought him the news. "Tell me that you didn't lose my brother."
"We didn't lose your brother but we have not received word of where they could be right now. The weather is too bad for a carrier bird to bring a message home and no one has spotted them coming in. It is hard to look out-"
"That is why I told you fools to send a ship out to help them find their way home. Will you wait for something to happen to their ship and then try to find a solution? This is a Hamilton possibly lost out at sea. You need to do all you can to bring him home," Gage said.
"Or," Gage turned around to face the group. "Are you rejoicing inside in hopes that my brother might perish out at sea? Is that it?"
