Again
Jack
considered
.
"
I
have
it
!
"
he
cried
.
"
We
'll
fell
a
large
tree
and
launch
the
trunk
of
it
in
the
water
,
so
that
when
you
want
to
fish
you
've
nothing
to
do
but
to
swim
out
to
it
.
"
"
Would
not
a
small
raft
do
better
?
"
said
I.
"
Much
better
;
but
we
have
no
ropes
to
bind
it
together
with
.
Perhaps
we
may
find
something
hereafter
that
will
do
as
well
,
but
in
the
meantime
let
us
try
the
tree
.
"
This
was
agreed
on
;
so
we
started
off
to
a
spot
,
not
far
distant
,
where
we
knew
of
a
tree
that
would
suit
us
which
grew
near
the
water
's
edge
.
As
soon
as
we
reached
it
Jack
threw
off
his
coat
,
and
wielding
the
axe
with
his
sturdy
arms
,
hacked
and
hewed
at
it
for
a
quarter
of
an
hour
without
stopping
.
Then
he
paused
,
and
while
he
sat
down
to
rest
I
continued
the
work
.
Then
Peterkin
made
a
vigorous
attack
on
it
;
so
that
when
Jack
renewed
his
powerful
blows
,
a
few
minutes
'
cutting
brought
it
down
with
a
terrible
crash
.
"
Hurrah
!
Now
for
it
!
"
cried
Jack
.
"
Let
us
off
with
its
head
!
"
So
saying
,
he
began
to
cut
through
the
stem
again
at
about
six
yards
from
the
thick
end
.
This
done
,
he
cut
three
strong
,
short
poles
or
levers
from
the
stout
branches
,
with
which
to
roll
the
log
down
the
beach
into
the
sea
;
for
,
as
it
was
nearly
two
feet
thick
at
the
large
end
,
we
could
not
move
it
without
such
helps
.
With
the
levers
,
however
,
we
rolled
it
slowly
into
the
sea
.
Having
been
thus
successful
in
launching
our
vessel
,
we
next
shaped
the
levers
into
rude
oars
or
paddles
,
and
then
attempted
to
embark
.
This
was
easy
enough
to
do
;
but
after
seating
ourselves
astride
the
log
,
it
was
with
the
utmost
difficulty
we
kept
it
from
rolling
round
and
plunging
us
into
the
water
.
Not
that
we
minded
that
much
;
but
we
preferred
,
if
possible
,
to
fish
in
dry
clothes
.
To
be
sure
,
our
trousers
were
necessarily
wet
,
as
our
legs
were
dangling
in
the
water
on
each
side
of
the
log
;
but
as
they
could
be
easily
dried
,
we
did
not
care
.
After
half-an-hour
's
practice
,
we
became
expert
enough
to
keep
our
balance
pretty
steadily
.
Then
Peterkin
laid
down
his
paddle
,
and
having
baited
his
line
with
a
whole
oyster
,
dropped
it
into
deep
water
.
"
Now
,
then
,
Jack
,
"
said
he
,
"
be
cautious
;
steer
clear
o
'
that
seaweed
.
There
!
that
's
it
;
gently
,
now
--
gently
.
I
see
a
fellow
at
least
a
foot
long
down
there
coming
to
--
Ha
!
that
's
it
!
Oh
bother
!
he
's
off
!
"
"
Did
he
bite
?
"
said
Jack
,
urging
the
log
onwards
a
little
with
his
paddle
.
"
Bite
?
Ay
!
he
took
it
into
his
mouth
,
but
the
moment
I
began
to
haul
he
opened
his
jaws
and
let
it
out
again
.
"
