I followed his example, and Ching smiled. "Velly good thing," he said. "Now pilate fliend, see jolly sailor boy, and say Come killee duck-bird, goose-bird to make nicee dinner, not come catchee catchee pilate." "You hear what this man says, my lads?" said the young lieutenant, addressing the men. "Ay, ay, sir." "Then you understand now that we have not only come up to shoot?" "Ay, ay, sir."
The man shouted out some words angrily, and Ching interpreted them in my ear, his explanation being in company with a strange surging noise "Say he come back and killee him if he choppee off head. Oh, he velly bad man."
You mean killee get dollar?" "Yes." "Allee light. Plenty bad men evelywhere. Captain going kill pilate?" "If we can catch them," I said. "Yes, velly hard catchee catchee. Captain never catchee in ship. Pilate allee lun away. 'Flaid of big gun. Get two big junk, put plenty sailor boy where pilate can't see. Then pilate come along kill and burnee. Junk steal all along.
We had listened, that afternoon, too coolly, perhaps, to a tale of many outrages, but the horror and infamy of them were not brought home to us till we saw Mary, tattered scarred, bedraggled, lying crumpled up against the gay chintz of the arm-chair. The poor fellow kept muttering: "Coon Dogs come. I know. Killee you, killee me. Heap bad men!" Next morning Uncle Jake and the doctor rode up.
Ching was evidently pleading for mercy, not for himself but for me. I knew it, for he kept pointing to me; and finally he made a bound, got free, and leaped to me, throwing his arms about my waist. "No killee; shan't killee," he cried wildly; and then, turning round, he yelled at our captors in his own tongue, abusing them in his rage, and threatening them with his clenched fist.
Coon Dogs allee same debils killee you, killee me. Heap bad men!" We tried to assure him that the Coon Dogs were at heart rank curs. Mary shook his head: "I know. You see." The day passed. Night set in. About ten, Mary said, convincingly "Coon Dogs coming! Coon Dogs coming!" "No, no," said Ajax. I slipped out of the house.
As he passed the cabin door on his way forward, Moran hailed him. "I thought you went ashore?" she cried. "Heap flaid," he answered. "Him other boy go up Chinatown; him tell Sam Yup; I tink Sam Yup alla same killee me. I no leaveum ship two, thlee day; bimeby I go Olegon. I stay topside ship. You wantum cook. I cook plenty fine; standum watch for you."

"Goo' molnin', Missa Helsmok!" chanted another yellow agony. "Nicee molnin', Missa Helsmok! Whaffoh you tellee me lah wintel you sclew my plully neck? Lak-no-ha-long-lee! Missa Smyte wakee you up tyillin'-a-head you holse!
"Yes, tell Mr Leardon watchee watchee, killee allee pilate." "Yes," I said; and I hurried away, muttering, "Watchee watchee, killee. What stuff they do talk! Any one would think they were all big babies, who had been taught to speak English by a nurse." As I reached the deck I saw Barkins and Smith standing by the first lieutenant, and he was nodding his head.
I said, "looking at the mischief your friends have done?" "Fliends burnee ship? No fliends. Velly bad men. Ching feel allee shame. Velly bad men evelywhere. Killee, get dollar. No velly bad men, London?" "I'm afraid there are," I said sadly. "Yes; velly bad men, London. Killee get dollar. You choppee off bad men head?" "No," I said; "but they kill them if they commit murder." "Commit murder?
