TREASURE ISLAND 040 – XXXIThe Treasure-hunt—Flint’s Pointer – 003

I’ve got my piece o’ news, and thanky to him for that; but it’s over and done.
I’ll take him in a line when we go treasure-hunting, for we’ll keep him like so much gold, in case of accidents, you mark, and in the meantime.
Once we got the ship and treasure both and off to sea like jolly companions, why then we’ll talk Mr.
Hawkins over, we will, and we’ll give him his share, to be sure, for all his kindness.”

It was no wonder the men were in a good humour now.
For my part, I was horribly cast down.
Should the scheme he had now sketched prove feasible, Silver, already doubly a traitor, would not hesitate to adopt it.
He had still a foot in either camp, and there was no doubt he would prefer wealth and freedom with the pirates to a bare escape from hanging, which was the best he had to hope on our side.

Nay, and even if things so fell out that he was forced to keep his faith with Dr.
