‘
You
see
,
Morstan
,
’
said
he
,
‘
Small
is
a
man
of
his
word
.
He
does
not
flinch
from
his
friend
.
I
think
we
may
very
well
trust
him
.
’
“
‘
It
’
s
a
dirty
business
,
’
the
other
answered
.
‘
Yet
,
as
you
say
,
the
money
would
save
our
commissions
handsomely
.
’
“
‘
Well
,
Small
,
’
said
the
major
,
‘
we
must
,
I
suppose
,
try
and
meet
you
.
We
must
first
,
of
course
,
test
the
truth
of
your
story
.
Tell
me
where
the
box
is
hid
,
and
I
shall
get
leave
of
absence
and
go
back
to
India
in
the
monthly
relief
-
boat
to
inquire
into
the
affair
.
’
“
‘
Not
so
fast
,
’
said
I
,
growing
colder
as
he
got
hot
.
‘
I
must
have
the
consent
of
my
three
comrades
.
I
tell
you
that
it
is
four
or
none
with
us
.
’
“
‘
Nonsense
!
’
he
broke
in
.
‘
What
have
three
black
fellows
to
do
with
our
agreement
?
’
“
‘
Black
or
blue
,
’
said
I
,
‘
they
are
in
with
me
,
and
we
all
go
together
.
’
“
Well
,
the
matter
ended
by
a
second
meeting
,
at
which
Mahomet
Singh
,
Abdullah
Khan
,
and
Dost
Akbar
were
all
present
.
We
talked
the
matter
over
again
,
and
at
last
we
came
to
an
arrangement
.
We
were
to
provide
both
the
officers
with
charts
of
the
part
of
the
Agra
fort
and
mark
the
place
in
the
wall
where
the
treasure
was
hid
.
Major
Sholto
was
to
go
to
India
to
test
our
story
.
If
he
found
the
box
he
was
to
leave
it
there
,
to
send
out
a
small
yacht
provisioned
for
a
voyage
,
which
was
to
lie
off
Rutland
Island
,
and
to
which
we
were
to
make
our
way
,
and
finally
to
return
to
his
duties
.
Captain
Morstan
was
then
to
apply
for
leave
of
absence
,
to
meet
us
at
Agra
,
and
there
we
were
to
have
a
final
division
of
the
treasure
,
he
taking
the
major
’
s
share
as
well
as
his
own
.
All
this
we
sealed
by
the
most
solemn
oaths
that
the
mind
could
think
or
the
lips
utter
.
I
sat
up
all
night
with
paper
and
ink
,
and
by
the
morning
I
had
the
two
charts
all
ready
,
signed
with
the
sign
of
four
,
—
that
is
,
of
Abdullah
,
Akbar
,
Mahomet
,
and
myself
.
“
Well
,
gentlemen
,
I
weary
you
with
my
long
story
,
and
I
know
that
my
friend
Mr
.
Jones
is
impatient
to
get
me
safely
stowed
in
chokey
.
I
’
ll
make
it
as
short
as
I
can
.
The
villain
Sholto
went
off
to
India
,
but
he
never
came
back
again
.
Captain
Morstan
showed
me
his
name
among
a
list
of
passengers
in
one
of
the
mail
-
boats
very
shortly
afterwards
.
His
uncle
had
died
,
leaving
him
a
fortune
,
and
he
had
left
the
army
,
yet
he
could
stoop
to
treat
five
men
as
he
had
treated
us
.
Morstan
went
over
to
Agra
shortly
afterwards
,
and
found
,
as
we
expected
,
that
the
treasure
was
indeed
gone
.
The
scoundrel
had
stolen
it
all
,
without
carrying
out
one
of
the
conditions
on
which
we
had
sold
him
the
secret
.
From
that
day
I
lived
only
for
vengeance
.
I
thought
of
it
by
day
and
I
nursed
it
by
night
.
It
became
an
overpowering
,
absorbing
passion
with
me
.
I
cared
nothing
for
the
law
,
—
nothing
for
the
gallows
.
To
escape
,
to
track
down
Sholto
,
to
have
my
hand
upon
his
throat
,
—
that
was
my
one
thought
.
Even
the
Agra
treasure
had
come
to
be
a
smaller
thing
in
my
mind
than
the
slaying
of
Sholto
.
