Which partly explains Mr. Todd's later
acguieSoence TO a questionable scheme pro
pounded by Captain Swarth at a confer
enoe IN one of the tents. the dominant rea-
son being the enthusiastic approval of the

was, 10 temporarily change the missionary

IhinNs mainmaSt with its still intact
mainSail and saf topSail for the Jury rig
ana thus diSSuiSeu 10 sail in pursuit of
Chink. whom Captain Swarth vowed h.,
could lind. and TO recover by law of might
the brig and the pearls. Naak stipulated
ghoulishly that in return for his services

allowed the privilege of prodding Chink
along the plank when he walked it. and
