TREASURE ISLAND 040 – XXXIThe Treasure-hunt—Flint’s Pointer – 008

The party spread itself abroad, in a fan shape, shouting and leaping to and fro.
About the centre, and a good way behind the rest, Silver and I followed—I tethered by my rope, he ploughing, with deep pants, among the sliding gravel.
From time to time, indeed, I had to lend him a hand, or he must have missed his footing and fallen backward down the hill.

We had thus proceeded for about half a mile and were approaching the brow of the plateau when the man upon the farthest left began to cry aloud, as if in terror.
Shout after shout came from him, and the others began to run in his direction.

“He can’t ’a found the treasure,” said old Morgan, hurrying past us from the right, “for that’s clean a-top.”

Indeed, as we found when we also reached the spot, it was something very different.
At the foot of a pretty big pine and involved in a green creeper, which had even partly lifted some of the smaller bones, a human skeleton lay, with a few shreds of clothing, on the ground.
I believe a chill struck for a moment to every heart.
