"As he has often threatened to- do,'i
said Carlton, "and may do yet"
A most extraordinary scheme was
proposed by one man--that we should
launch the longboat, throw into her
some bags Of bread and gang-oasks Of
water, unship the compass, double
bank the oars. and shove OF for the
coast of South America, after scuttling
the brig and leaving Antonio to his
fate. II n 4
We were in horrible state Of per-
plexity, and I seemed to see constantly
before me the gashed bodies of my
two kind, brave and hospitable friends
Captain Weston and Marc Hislop-s
lying in their berths dead and un-
avenged, with their destroyer beside
them! a.ss.g
We had the capstan-bars. and with
these it was proposed to assail him
when next he came on deck. Then we
had the carpenters tools. among
which q hand-saw, an auger, an adze
and Ratchet, made very available
weapons, and these, with the old cut;
lass and harpoons which figured on
the night we crossed the line, were
speedily appropriated. was armed
with heavy claw-hammer, and, VOW
ing firmly to stand by each other, we
resolved to lynch Antonio the mo-
ment he came out of his den.
While we were thus employed in
devising the means Of punishment. the
dark shadows of night passed away;
the morning sun came up in his trop-.
teal splendor, and the blue waves of
the southern sea rolled around us In
light, but not sail was visible on
their vast expanse.
The crew seemed pale and excited,
as they might we'll be, and with buck
cts of water we cleansed the deck
from the blood that stained 1t.
The morning advanced into noon.
and the vessel was steered her due
course, for the wind was still fair. Ned
Carlton was at the wheel. and the men
were all grouped forward, when sud-
denly Antonio appeared on deck with
a knife in his sash and revolver In
each hand.
He was so pale that his olive face
seemed almost pea-green, and
black crust upon his cruel lips showed
the extent of his potations In the
cabin. He glanced into the pinnacle,
and perceiving that the brig was still
being steered her old course, he cried.
in a hoarse voice:
"Hombres, allegarse la cuesta"
(men, bear toward the land) and
pointing to the direction in which he
knew the vast continent Of South Am
erica-from which we were probably
four or five hundred miles distant
must be, he added orders in English to
shape the briggs course due west, and
stamped his right foot on the deck to
give his words additional force.
