You see, he took four of his boat's crew to Tulagi to be flogged officially, you know then started back with them in the whaleboat. It was pretty squally, and the boat capsized just outside. Swartz was the only one drowned. Of course, it was an accident." "Was it? Really?" Bertie asked, only half-interested, staring hard at the black man at the wheel.
Even did she ride to anchor, desolately lonely, in the Bay of a Thousand Ships. Last of all, so far as concerned the Solomons, her anchor rumbled down and bit into the coral-sanded bottom of the harbour of Tulagi, where, ashore on Florida Island, lived and ruled the Resident Commissioner.
My word, plenty bad fella steal 'm you. Me cross along you too much. S'pose you like 'm, me take 'm one fella pound along you in big book. S'pose you no like 'm me take 'm one fella pound, then me send you fella along Tulagi catch 'm one strong fella government whipping.
