Away went Gobal four months ago, and I get a letter from him weeks past, just after Pentecost, to say he would be here some time in the first of July, with the man. "Well, it is a great game. The man is a pirate, but it does not matter he has paid for that. I thought you would be glad of a fine adventure like that, so I said to you, Come." "But, father "
There was one man, the mate on the first voyage. He had been put in prison also. He did not get away as soon as Brigond. When he was free, he come to the captain of a ship that I know, the Free-and-Easy, that sails to Havre, and told him the story, asking for passage to Quebec. The captain Gobal did not believe it, but said he would bring him over on the next voyage.
Eh bien! some wise men are fools, one way or another. Well, I told Gobal I would give the man the Ninety-Nine for the cruise and search, and that we should divide the gold between us, if it was found, taking out first enough to make a dot for you and a fine handful for Bissonnette. But no, shake not your head like that. It shall be so.

What is more, I gave my word to Gobal, and I will keep it. I will be captain. No talking! When you've got the kegs in the cellar at Angel Point, good! But now come, my comrades, I am your captain!" She was making the thing a cheerful adventure, and the men now swung the kegs on their shoulders and carried them to the boat.
Gobal stretched out his hand. "Like the sun-sure. That's enough. We'll stand by my oath. You shall see the chart." Going again inside the cabin, Gobal took out a map grimed with ceaseless fingering, and showed it to Tarboe, putting his finger on the spot where the treasure lay. "The Bay of Belle Amour!" cried Tarboe, his eyes flashing. "Ah, I know it! That's where Gaspard the pilot lived.
It's only forty leagues or so from here." His fingers ran here and there on the map. "Yes, yes," he continued, "it's so, but he hasn't placed the reef right. Ah, here is how Brigond's ship went down! There's a needle of rock in the bay. It isn't here." Gobal handed the chart over. "I can't go with you, but I take your word; I can say no more. If you cheat me I'll kill you; that's all."
Gobal was not cheerful. Tarboe caught at something. "You've got our man?" Gobal drank off his wine slowly. "Yes," he said. "Well? Why don't you fetch him?" "You can see him below." "The man has legs, let him walk here. Hello, my Gobal, what's the matter? If he's here bring him up. We've no time to lose." "Tarboe, the fool got smallpox, and died three hours ago the tenth man since we started.
