Before supper was eaten we buried
old Tom in the sand, and stood round
him for awhile bareheaded in the
breeze. A good deal of frewood had
been got in, but not enough for the cap
tain's fancy. and he shook his head over
it, and told us we must get back to this
tomorrow rather livelier." Then, when
we had eaten our pork, and each had a
good stiff glass of brandy grog, the
three chiefs got together in a corner
to discuss our prospects.
1t appears they were at their wits

that we must have been starved into
surrender long before help came. But
our best hope. it was decided, was to

two others were wounded, and one, at
least-the man shot beside the gun
severely wounded, if he were not dead.
Every time we had crack at them we
were to take it, saving our own lives
with the EXTREMIST care. And besides
that we had two able allies, rum and
the climate.
AS for the first, though we were about
half mile away, we could hear them
roaring and singing late into the night;
and as for the second, the doctor staled

in the marsh, and unprovided with rem
edies, the half of them would be on
their backs before week.
