The doctor, on the advice of the captain, refused to take any action. As a matter of fact, the convicts wese not busy half the time. Two days later they protested that their food was not only bad, but insufficien . in q tantity. The provisions furnished by the govern- ment were wholesome and no tault could be found with the cooks. Ben Johnson had acted as spokesman in both instances. No other ship’s doctor would have allowed him to open his month. On the second occasion Dr. anton, who had been coached by the captain, made reply i _ _ _ an L- -_...‘I;..-.L {>53- hrnnnh “Putin, muv .vr-J . “ I have, seen fit to overlook this breach of discipline, but don't try it again. The next protest you present will bring you a round dozen on the bare back.” That seemed to end the matter. The captain, the doctor and others were in- clined to regard itas a game of blufl‘, but it struck me that the fellows gave in altogether too quick. My position as ma’e made it impossible for me to play the detective, but Haskell had the run of the ship and kept his eyes and ea‘ s open. On the morning of the fifth day after Johnson had presented his second protest I came on deck at 4 o’clock in the morn- ing. About an hour later, when the watch had settled down into the routine, Haskell came out of the cabin smoking a pipe, and made excuse that he was troubled with insomnia. He soon let me know that he wanted a word with me in private. The bark was driving along before a steady breeze and needed little watching, and presently we got out of earshot of the wheelsman and then Haskell said : “The three guards below willbere- lieved at 6 o’clock. At 7 o'clock four of them master on deck to receive the first gang, leaving three below. The four on eck will be re enforced by two sailors, who will receive their noskets from Hooper.” “ Yes, that's the program,” 1 answered, but having no suspicion of what was coming. “Every sailor aboard is all right as far as I know.” resumed Haskell. “ You Inn-ten his gnu-d! on deck, you must be ready to roplwo the four with unor- gnd no thnt their musket: no baled.

Saun- ders was one of the four married men, you will remember, and Thomas the men we were returning to the Cape. I wish to give Dr. Baxton all possible credit. and will therefore say that he made an earnest effort to do his duty after we resumed our voyage. The trouble with him was that he was not the man for the place. He was not a good judge of ‘human nature, and he lacked that force of character which compels respect, and {fizzâ€"‘iggc; owfméoumgo. which_ enforces obedience almost wiyhont qogmand. .
