But don’t take any notice so as to seem to be watching him. That’s the Indian who’s always running after my little 1' ezcla. and she hates him.’ ‘ Ho 1’ I said. ‘Bit jealous, then 2' ' I suppose so,’ he said. ‘ I wouldn’t go on shore at night then,Bill' I says. ' Vhy not 2’ ‘ Because Englishmen are jealous with their tongues, and when they are very‘ jealous. it's with their fists.’ ' ‘ Well?’ ' But these Indian chaps are jealous with a very long knife, which they make a present to you, and sheath it in your ribs.’ Now, all the time I was at work there, thinking about what we had seen the night bofore, and Bill looked so quiet, that I could see he was thinking about it too ; but I was 11 »t so deep on that as not to be able to notice something else, so that I was not a bit surprised when Bill said to me suddenly ‘Jnck Harris, just cast your weather eye ashore, by them logs, and tell me if you see anything.’ All that daf‘fi were busy getting sticks of mahogany aboard, dragging them along- side and then slinging them up, and getting them in at a port-hole made on purpose in the bows. me to me a do of that hulk again by night, after what I had seen.
