Will
Halley
,
however
,
ran
up
and
down
the
deck
like
a
maniac
.
His
crew
had
recovered
their
senses
,
and
now
broached
a
cask
of
brandy
,
and
began
to
drink
.
John
foresaw
that
if
they
became
drunk
,
terrible
scenes
would
ensue
.
The
captain
could
not
be
relied
on
to
restrain
them
;
the
wretched
man
tore
his
hair
and
wrung
his
hands
.
His
whole
thought
was
his
uninsured
cargo
.
"
I
am
ruined
!
I
am
lost
!
"
he
would
cry
,
as
he
ran
from
side
to
side
.
John
Mangles
did
not
waste
time
on
him
.
He
armed
his
two
companions
,
and
they
all
held
themselves
in
readiness
to
resist
the
sailors
who
were
filling
themselves
with
brandy
,
seasoned
with
fearful
blasphemies
.
"
The
first
of
these
wretches
that
comes
near
the
ladies
,
I
will
shoot
like
a
dog
,
"
said
the
Major
,
quietly
.
The
sailors
doubtless
saw
that
the
passengers
were
determined
to
hold
their
own
,
for
after
some
attempts
at
pillage
,
they
disappeared
to
their
own
quarters
.
John
Mangles
thought
no
more
of
these
drunken
rascals
,
and
waited
impatiently
for
the
dawn
.
The
ship
was
now
quite
motionless
.
The
sea
became
gradually
calmer
.
The
wind
fell
.
The
hull
would
be
safe
for
some
hours
yet
.
At
daybreak
John
examined
the
landing-place
;
the
yawl
,
which
was
now
their
only
boat
,
would
carry
the
crew
and
the
passengers
.
It
would
have
to
make
three
trips
at
least
,
as
it
could
only
hold
four
.
As
he
was
leaning
on
the
skylight
,
thinking
over
the
situation
of
affairs
,
John
Mangles
could
hear
the
roaring
of
the
surf
.
He
tried
to
pierce
the
darkness
.
He
wondered
how
far
it
was
to
the
land
they
longed
for
no
less
than
dreaded
.
A
reef
sometimes
extends
for
miles
along
the
coast
.
Could
their
fragile
boat
hold
out
on
a
long
trip
?
While
John
was
thus
ruminating
and
longing
for
a
little
light
from
the
murky
sky
,
the
ladies
,
relying
on
him
,
slept
in
their
little
berths
.
The
stationary
attitude
of
the
brig
insured
them
some
hours
of
repose
.
Glenarvan
,
John
,
and
their
companions
,
no
longer
disturbed
by
the
noise
of
the
crew
who
were
now
wrapped
in
a
drunken
sleep
,
also
refreshed
themselves
by
a
short
nap
,
and
a
profound
silence
reigned
on
board
the
ship
,
herself
slumbering
peacefully
on
her
bed
of
sand
.
Toward
four
o'clock
the
first
peep
of
dawn
appeared
in
the
east
.
The
clouds
were
dimly
defined
by
the
pale
light
of
the
dawn
.
John
returned
to
the
deck
.
The
horizon
was
veiled
with
a
curtain
of
fog
.
Some
faint
outlines
were
shadowed
in
the
mist
,
but
at
a
considerable
height
.
A
slight
swell
still
agitated
the
sea
,
but
the
more
distant
waves
were
undistinguishable
in
a
motionless
bank
of
clouds
.
John
waited
.
The
light
gradually
increased
,
and
the
horizon
acquired
a
rosy
hue
.
The
curtain
slowly
rose
over
the
vast
watery
stage
.
Black
reefs
rose
out
of
the
waters
.
Then
a
line
became
defined
on
the
belt
of
foam
,
and
there
gleamed
a
luminous
beacon-light
point
behind
a
low
hill
which
concealed
the
scarcely
risen
sun
.
There
was
the
land
,
less
than
nine
miles
off
.
