The tide was beginning to run in,
so we needed very little way on Us.
I pointed out Samson to the captain,
and, following the kings instruc-
tons, told him to steer straight for
the negro. Samson stood there and
called:
"AIl right, sar. Keep right on.

And, sure enough, when we were
barely fifty feet away from the shore,
and there seemed nothing for it but to
run dead aground, low down through
the floating mangrovc branches we
caught sight of a narrow gleam start

two our decks were swept with foliage

Samson from the bank, grinnlng q

Samson went trotting along the
twisting banks, we cautiously feeling
our way after him, for something like
quarter Of mile; and then, COM

opened out into sort Of basin. On
the left bank stood two large palmetto

there was our anchorage; and then,

to our left, and shot up a long arm
by way of signal. 1t was Samson; and
evidently the mouth of the creek was
