A brief survey was sufficient to satisfy me that the craft was amply provisioned for our cruise, and this matter being thus satisfactorily settled, we repaired to the deck and proceeded to loose the sails and get the cutter under way; the lad whom we had so roughly aroused being persuaded by occasional suggestive exhibitions of Giaccomo's knife to render his best assistance in the task.
"Perfidie! nous som " The remainder of the sentence had been choked back by the iron grasp of Giaccomo's hand upon the lad's throat, the dagger being flashed before his eyes and the threat hissed into his ears at the same moment. But it was enough, the mischief had been done.
"Who goes there?" ejaculated a voice from a mass of deep shadow on one side of the cave. I recognised Giaccomo's voice, and at once replied, adding an inquiry as to whether he had detected any signs of the presence of the enemy in the neighbourhood of the cavern. "None whatever, signor," he replied.
We went on some distance further until we came to the waterside, not meeting with a single soul on the way, and there we helped ourselves to a rowing-boat and pulled out into the bay, where, according to Giaccomo's account, we should find her if she then happened to be in port.
