Ralph
Rover
,
"
I
replied
.
"
Where
did
you
come
from
,
and
how
came
you
to
be
on
that
island
?
How
many
companions
had
you
on
it
?
Answer
me
,
now
,
and
mind
you
tell
no
lies
.
"
"
I
never
tell
lies
,
"
said
I
firmly
.
The
captain
received
this
reply
with
a
cold
,
sarcastic
smile
,
and
bade
me
answer
his
questions
.
I
then
told
him
the
history
of
myself
and
my
companions
from
the
time
we
sailed
till
the
day
of
his
visit
to
the
island
--
taking
care
,
however
,
to
make
no
mention
of
the
Diamond
Cave
.
After
I
had
concluded
,
he
was
silent
for
a
few
minutes
;
then
looking
up
,
he
said
,
"
Boy
,
I
believe
you
.
"
I
was
surprised
at
this
remark
,
for
I
could
not
imagine
why
he
should
not
believe
me
.
However
,
I
made
no
reply
.
"
And
what
,
"
continued
the
captain
,
"
makes
you
think
that
this
schooner
is
a
pirate
?
"
"
The
black
flag
,
"
said
I
,
"
showed
me
what
you
are
;
and
if
any
further
proof
were
wanting
,
I
have
had
it
in
the
brutal
treatment
I
have
received
at
your
hands
.
"
The
captain
frowned
as
I
spoke
;
but
,
subduing
his
anger
,
he
continued
,
"
Boy
,
you
are
too
bold
.
I
admit
that
we
treated
you
roughly
,
but
that
was
because
you
made
us
lose
time
and
gave
us
a
good
deal
of
trouble
.
As
to
the
black
flag
,
that
is
merely
a
joke
that
my
fellows
play
off
upon
people
sometimes
in
order
to
frighten
them
.
It
is
their
humour
,
and
does
no
harm
.
I
am
no
pirate
,
boy
,
but
a
lawful
trader
--
a
rough
one
,
I
grant
you
;
but
one
ca
n't
help
that
in
these
seas
,
where
there
are
so
many
pirates
on
the
water
and
such
murderous
blackguards
on
the
land
.
I
carry
on
a
trade
in
sandal-wood
with
the
Feejee
Islands
;
and
if
you
choose
,
Ralph
,
to
behave
yourself
and
be
a
good
boy
,
I
'll
take
you
along
with
me
and
give
you
a
good
share
of
the
profits
.
You
see
,
I
'm
in
want
of
an
honest
boy
like
you
to
look
after
the
cabin
,
and
keep
the
log
,
and
superintend
the
traffic
on
shore
sometimes
.
What
say
you
,
Ralph
:
would
you
like
to
become
a
sandal-wood
trader
?
