Excerpt from The Great Pilot and His Lessons The office of a pilot is a very important one. He goes on board of a vessel in order to carry her safely into the harbor which she desires to enter. There are, generally, many rocks and shoals and danger ous places about the entrance to a harbor. The captain, who has navigated his vessel across the ocean, is not always able to steer it through those difficult places. It requires the assistance of some one who has made this matter a subject of particular study and attention; who knows just where the deep, safe channel lies which the vessel should sail in; and where every rock and shoal lies which must be avoided. And this is the pilot's special business. For this purpose he takes the entire charge of the vessel. The captain gives up the control of it to him. He issues all the orders. He tells the men what to do; and it -is only by obeying his or ders, by minding his teaching, or following the pilot's 'essons that they can get the ship safely into port.
