Neddie lay in a heap, moaning fitfully; Blodgett and Davie Paine slept; Roger sat with his back to a tree and watched the incoming tide; the cook stirred about uneasily and muttered to himself. Coming over to me, he crouched at my side and spoke of Kipping. He was savagely vindictive. "Hgh!" he grunted, "dat yeh crimp! He got dis nigger once, yass, sah.
I didn't go to do nothing. I'm sick. I've got a pain in my innards. I can't work so help me, I can't work." "Aha!" Again Kipping laughed mildly. "Aha! Can't work, eh? I'll teach you a lesson." Bill staggered against the deck-house and clumsily fell, pressing his hands against his side and moaning. "Hgh!" Kipping grunted. "Hgh!"
He roared them after us until we had left him far astern; and at the last we heard him laughing long and hoarsely. "What dat yeh man think we all am? He think we all gwine believe dat yeh? Hgh!" the cook growled. But Neddie Benson dolefully shook his head.
"That's all nonsense," I said perhaps too sharply; "Mr. Falk is an honest seaman. His whole future would be ruined if he attempted any such thing as that." "Ay, hear the boy," Blodgett muttered sarcastically. "What does the boy think a man rich enough to buy all the ships in the king's navy will care for such a future as Captain Falk has in front of him? Hgh!
Cap'n done dat dat yeh v'yage. Hgh!" At dusk Neddie's moaning woke the sleepers, and we held a council in which we debated plans for the future. Daring neither to venture abroad nor to eat the native fruits and leaves, exhausted by exposure, perishing of hunger and thirst, we faced a future that was dark indeed. "As for me," said Davie calmly, "I can see only one way to end our misery."
