The
dead
were
wrapped
in
tarpaulins
and
lashed
on
deck
to
be
identified
by
their
comrades
before
being
consigned
to
the
deep
.
None
of
the
living
was
conscious
when
the
Frenchmen
reached
the
Arrow
's
deck
.
Even
the
poor
devil
who
had
waved
the
single
despairing
signal
of
distress
had
lapsed
into
unconsciousness
before
he
had
learned
whether
it
had
availed
or
not
.
It
did
not
take
the
French
officer
long
to
learn
what
had
caused
the
terrible
condition
aboard
;
for
when
water
and
brandy
were
sought
to
restore
the
men
,
it
was
found
that
there
was
none
,
nor
even
food
of
any
description
.

He
immediately
signalled
to
the
cruiser
to
send
water
,
medicine
,
and
provisions
,
and
another
boat
made
the
perilous
trip
to
the
Arrow
.
When
restoratives
had
been
applied
several
of
the
men
regained
consciousness
,
and
then
the
whole
story
was
told
.
That
part
of
it
we
know
up
to
the
sailing
of
the
Arrow
after
the
murder
of
Snipes
,
and
the
burial
of
his
body
above
the
treasure
chest
.
It
seems
that
the
pursuit
by
the
cruiser
had
so
terrorized
the
mutineers
that
they
had
continued
out
across
the
Atlantic
for
several
days
after
losing
her
;
but
on
discovering
the
meager
supply
of
water
and
provisions
aboard
,
they
had
turned
back
toward
the
east
.
With
no
one
on
board
who
understood
navigation
,
discussions
soon
arose
as
to
their
whereabouts
;
and
as
three
days
'
sailing
to
the
east
did
not
raise
land
,
they
bore
off
to
the
north
,
fearing
that
the
high
north
winds
that
had
prevailed
had
driven
them
south
of
the
southern
extremity
of
Africa
.

They
kept
on
a
north-northeasterly
course
for
two
days
,
when
they
were
overtaken
by
a
calm
which
lasted
for
nearly
a
week
.
Their
water
was
gone
,
and
in
another
day
they
would
be
without
food
.
Conditions
changed
rapidly
from
bad
to
worse
.
One
man
went
mad
and
leaped
overboard
.
Soon
another
opened
his
veins
and
drank
his
own
blood
.
