What
an
odd
fellow
he
is
,
to
be
sure
!
"
said
Jack
,
taking
me
by
the
arm
and
hurrying
forward
.
"
Come
,
let
us
hasten
to
see
what
it
is
.
"
"
Here
it
is
,
boys
--
hurrah
!
Come
along
!
Just
what
we
want
!
"
cried
Peterkin
as
we
drew
near
,
still
tugging
with
all
his
power
.
"
First-rate
;
just
the
very
ticket
!
"
I
need
scarcely
say
to
my
readers
that
my
companion
Peterkin
was
in
the
habit
of
using
very
remarkable
and
peculiar
phrases
.
And
I
am
free
to
confess
that
I
did
not
well
understand
the
meaning
of
some
of
them
--
such
,
for
instance
,
as
"
the
very
ticket
;
"
but
I
think
it
my
duty
to
recount
everything
relating
to
my
adventures
with
a
strict
regard
to
truthfulness
in
as
far
as
my
memory
serves
me
,
so
I
write
,
as
nearly
as
possible
,
the
exact
words
that
my
companions
spoke
.
I
often
asked
Peterkin
to
explain
what
he
meant
by
"
ticket
,
"
but
he
always
answered
me
by
going
into
fits
of
laughter
.
However
,
by
observing
the
occasions
on
which
he
used
it
,
I
came
to
understand
that
it
meant
to
show
that
something
was
remarkably
good
or
fortunate
.
On
coming
up
we
found
that
Peterkin
was
vainly
endeavouring
to
pull
the
axe
out
of
the
oar
into
which
,
it
will
be
remembered
,
Jack
struck
it
while
endeavouring
to
cut
away
the
cordage
among
which
it
had
become
entangled
at
the
bow
of
the
ship
.
Fortunately
for
us
,
the
axe
had
remained
fast
in
the
oar
,
and
even
now
all
Peterkin
's
strength
could
not
draw
it
out
of
the
cut
.
"
Ah
,
that
is
capital
indeed
!
"
cried
Jack
,
at
the
same
time
giving
the
axe
a
wrench
that
plucked
it
out
of
the
tough
wood
.
"
How
fortunate
this
is
!
It
will
be
of
more
value
to
us
than
a
hundred
knives
,
and
the
edge
is
quite
new
and
sharp
.
"
"
I
'll
answer
for
the
toughness
of
the
handle
,
at
any
rate
!
"
cried
Peterkin
;
"
my
arms
are
nearly
pulled
out
of
the
sockets
.
But
see
here
,
our
luck
is
great
.
There
is
iron
on
the
blade
.
"
He
pointed
to
a
piece
of
hoop-iron
as
he
spoke
,
which
had
been
nailed
round
the
blade
of
the
oar
to
prevent
it
from
splitting
.
This
also
was
a
fortunate
discovery
.
Jack
went
down
on
his
knees
,
and
with
the
edge
of
the
axe
began
carefully
to
force
out
the
nails
.
But
as
they
were
firmly
fixed
in
,
and
the
operation
blunted
our
axe
,
we
carried
the
oar
up
with
us
to
the
place
where
we
had
left
the
rest
of
our
things
,
intending
to
burn
the
wood
away
from
the
iron
at
a
more
convenient
time
.
"
Now
,
lads
,
"
said
Jack
after
we
had
laid
it
on
the
stone
which
contained
our
little
all
,
"
I
propose
that
we
should
go
to
the
tail
of
the
island
,
where
the
ship
struck
,
which
is
only
a
quarter
of
a
mile
off
;
and
see
if
anything
else
has
been
thrown
ashore
.
I
do
n't
expect
anything
,
but
it
is
well
to
see
.
When
we
get
back
here
it
will
be
time
to
have
our
supper
and
prepare
our
beds
.
"
"
Agreed
!
"
cried
Peterkin
and
I
together
,
as
,
indeed
,
we
would
have
agreed
to
any
proposal
that
Jack
made
;
for
,
besides
his
being
older
and
much
stronger
and
taller
than
either
of
us
,
he
was
a
very
clever
fellow
,
and
,
I
think
,
would
have
induced
people
much
older
than
himself
to
choose
him
for
their
leader
,
especially
if
they
required
to
be
led
on
a
bold
enterprise
.
Now
as
we
hastened
along
the
white
beach
,
which
shone
so
brightly
in
the
rays
of
the
setting
sun
that
our
eyes
were
quite
dazzled
by
its
glare
,
it
suddenly
came
into
Peterkin
's
head
that
we
had
nothing
to
eat
except
the
wild
berries
which
grew
in
profusion
at
our
feet
.
