Now

,

mind

you

,

"

said

the

doctor

,

"

I

clear

my

conscience

--

the

name

of

rum

for

you

is

death

.

"

82

And

with

that

he

went

off

to

see

my

father

,

taking

me

with

him

by

the

arm

.

83

"

This

is

nothing

,

"

he

said

as

soon

as

he

had

closed

the

door

.

"

I

have

drawn

blood

enough

to

keep

him

quiet

awhile

;

he

should

lie

for

a

week

where

he

is

--

that

is

the

best

thing

for

him

and

you

;

but

another

stroke

would

settle

him

.

About

noon

I

stopped

at

the

captain

's

door

with

some

cooling

drinks

and

medicines

.

He

was

lying

very

much

as

we

had

left

him

,

only

a

little

higher

,

and

he

seemed

both

weak

and

excited

.

The

doctor

--

"

I

began

.

87

But

he

broke

in

cursing

the

doctor

,

in

a

feeble

voice

but

heartily

.

"

Doctors

,

"

he

said

;

"

and

that

doctor

there

,

why

,

what

do

know

about

men

?

I

been

in

places

hot

as

pitch

,

and

mates

dropping

round

with

Yellow

Jack

,

and

the

blessed

land

a-heaving

like

the

sea

with

earthquakes

--

what

to

the

doctor

know

of

lands

that

?

--

and

I

lived

on

rum

,

I

tell

you

.

It

's

been

meat

and

drink

,

and

man

and

wife

,

to

me

;

and

if

I

not

to

have

my

rum

now

I

'm

a

poor

old

hulk

on

a

lee

shore

,

my

blood

'll

be

on

you

,

Jim

,

and

that

doctor

swab

"

;

and

he

ran

on

again

for

a

while

with

curses

.

"

Look

,

Jim

,

how

my

fingers

fidges

,

"

he

continued

in

the

pleading

tone

.

"

I

ca

n't

keep

'em

still

not

I.

I

have

n't

had

a

drop

this

That

doctor

's

a

fool

I

tell

you

.

If

I

do

n't

a

drain

o

'

rum

,

Jim

,

I

'll

have

the

horrors

;

I

some

on

'em

already

.

I

seen

old

Flint

in

the

corner

there

,

behind

you

;

as

plain

as

print

,

I

seen

him

;

and

if

I

the

horrors

,

I

'm

a

man

that

has

lived

rough

and

I

'll

raise

Cain

Your

I

'll

He

was

growing

more

and

more

excited

,

and

this

alarmed

me

for

my

father

,

who

was

very

low

that

day

and

needed

quiet

;

besides

,

I

was

reassured

by

the

doctor

's

words

,

now

quoted

to

me

,

and

rather

offended

by

the

offer

of

a

bribe

.

89

"

I

want

none

of

your

money

,

"

said

I

,

"

but

what

you

owe

my

father

.

I

'll

get

you

one

glass

,

and

no

more

.

"

90

When

I

brought

it

to

him

,

he

seized

it

greedily

and

drank

it

out

.
