"'Little too early to know who's goin' to take the Merriman store, ain't it? s'he, cheerful. Timothy ain't so everlastin' cheerful, either, but he always hearties himself all over when he talks, like he was a bell or a whistle an' he hed it to do. "Eb, he dropped his knife on the floor.
The miserable Jermyn made a sound of approval, which sounded like a groan of pain. Those were the ships for him. He pointed out in doleful tones that you couldn't say to labour-saving appliances: "Jump lively now, my hearties." No labour-saving appliance would go aloft on a dirty night with the sands under your lee. "No," assented the stranger, with a wink at me.
"He who would seek to stop us does so at his peril." And Jimmy made so fell a movement toward his side-arms that I hastened to restrain him. "Yes," said I; "you are quite right, my hearties." "But, gee!" ventured the red-haired pirate, "what was you thinkin' about?" "You ask me to tell truth, good Sire," I made reply, "and I shall do no less.
Now then, my hearties, lay hold of the oars and let us get you inboard sharp; we can't afford to lie here to be peppered. Help the wounded, those of you who are unhurt. That's your sort, Styles, bring him along here; is he still alive, do you think? All right, I have him! Now then, coxswain, heave with a will, but don't hurt the poor fellow more than you can help.
"With a ho, my hearties, and a merrily heave O!" "I I'll give you in c-charge! I'll " "Cheerily! Cheerily! heave yo ho!" "I never see nothing like this here! I'll " "With a heave and a ho, and up she rises O!" "Oh, very good, I'll give you in charge for this, you you feller! Look at me coat! I'll send for a constable. I'll " Timbertoes. "Belay, my lad! This here's Number Five, ain't it?"
"Come, heave ahead, my hearties!" he added, looking back at the seamen carrying the bags; "and you, Sam, shall we lend you a leg, old boy?" "Tank'ee, gunner a grand new cork one, if you like!" answered Sam, grinning and chuckling at his joke; "but ye see my timber one will serve me, I tink, till I'm laid under hatches. But I no wonder Billy in a hurry to go along ha! ha! ha!

And then," he said briskly, suddenly changing his tone, "then, my hearties, you blasted well sell out: you unload ... you dump 'em. Plenty more fools where your lot came from.... Most of you'll lose on your first price: late comers least: a few o' ye'll make if you bought under two pounds.
"Dive deep, my hearties, and bring up what you can find, and if a shark comes along and takes a nip out of your hind leg, don't expect no help from B. McGuffey, Esquire because you won't get any." Thus encouraged, the two cannibals dove overboard. McGuffey could see them pawing around on the bottom of the little bay, and after half a minute each came up with a magnificent spray of coral.
"Drift-wood is that what you're after? All right, my hearties, I can help you to what you want. My crew is standing idle, and I will send the second officer out with them in the boats. They can land it for you, and load up your horses."
Go an' mind your business, an' if ye do that, not a man in my crew will step a foot on the Sunk-haze shore. But if ye stay here and meddle, then down come your houses and out go your cook-stoves.
