TREASURE ISLAND 042 – XXXIIIThe Fall of a Chieftain – 011

“You’re a good boy in your line, Jim, but I don’t think you and me’ll go to sea again.
You’re too much of the born favourite for me.
Is that you, John Silver? What brings you here, man?”

“Come back to my dooty, sir,” returned Silver.

“Ah!” said the captain, and that was all he said.

What a supper I had of it that night, with all my friends around me; and what a meal it was, with Ben Gunn’s salted goat and some delicacies and a bottle of old wine from the Hispaniola.
Never, I am sure, were people gayer or happier.
And there was Silver, sitting back almost out of the firelight, but eating heartily, prompt to spring forward when anything was wanted, even joining quietly in our laughter—the same bland, polite, obsequious seaman of the voyage out.
