Belinda had first swum into the Macfarlanes' ken as a broken-down life-boat, purchased by an enterprising young uncle and converted by him into a most adequate little house-boat. It lay in a small bay on Loch Lomond, near the village of Luss, and there Uncle Archie had spent many of his frequent rests from the arduous study of medicine at Glasgow University.
From THE CREW OF THE BELINDA, Chapter 4, Belinda.
