TREASURE ISLAND 028 – XXIThe Attack – 002

I pitched it in red-hot on purpose; and before the hour’s out, as he said, we shall be boarded.
We’re outnumbered, I needn’t tell you that, but we fight in shelter; and a minute ago I should have said we fought with discipline.
I’ve no manner of doubt that we can drub them, if you choose.”

Then he went the rounds and saw, as he said, that all was clear.

On the two short sides of the house, east and west, there were only two loopholes; on the south side where the porch was, two again; and on the north side, five.
There was a round score of muskets for the seven of us; the firewood had been built into four piles—tables, you might say—one about the middle of each side, and on each of these tables some ammunition and four loaded muskets were laid ready to the hand of the defenders.
In the middle, the cutlasses lay ranged.

“Toss out the fire,” said the captain; “the chill is past, and we mustn’t have smoke in our eyes.”

The iron fire-basket was carried bodily out by Mr.
Trelawney, and the embers smothered among sand.

“Hawkins hasn’t had his breakfast.
Hawkins, help yourself, and back to your post to eat it,” continued Captain Smollett.
