TREASURE ISLAND 034 – XXVIIsrael Hands – 008

Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don’t bite; them’s my views—amen, so be it.
And now, you look here,” he added, suddenly changing his tone, “we’ve had about enough of this foolery.
The tide’s made good enough by now.
You just take my orders, Cap’n Hawkins, and we’ll sail slap in and be done with it.”

All told, we had scarce two miles to run; but the navigation was delicate, the entrance to this northern anchorage was not only narrow and shoal, but lay east and west, so that the schooner must be nicely handled to be got in.
I think I was a good, prompt subaltern, and I am very sure that Hands was an excellent pilot, for we went about and about and dodged in, shaving the banks, with a certainty and a neatness that were a pleasure to behold.

Scarcely had we passed the heads before the land closed around us.
The shores of North Inlet were as thickly wooded as those of the southern anchorage, but the space was longer and narrower and more like, what in truth it was, the estuary of a river.
