TREASURE ISLAND 008 – IVThe Sea-chest – 010
But my mother, frightened as she was, would not consent to take a fraction more than was due to her and was obstinately unwilling to be content with less.It was not yet seven, she said, by a long way; she knew her rights and she would have them; and she was still arguing with me when a little low whistle sounded a good way off upon the hill.That was enough, and more than enough, for both of us.“I’ll take what I have,” she said, jumping to her feet.“And I’ll take this to square the count,” said I, picking up the oilskin packet.Next moment we were both groping downstairs, leaving the candle by the empty chest; and the next we had opened the door and were in full retreat.We had not started a moment too soon.
