Feeling hopeless and sick at heart , Tom turned away . For a quick miment his eyes met those of the cook , and he saw there a light of such hatred and fear that no words could describe.
The cook moved quietly closer.He whispered to Tom in a rough voice , "Don't be too clever.Mark my words."and he went away.
Tom's thoughts did not delay going for long on the cook and his words .His friend was in trouble .How could he help him He decided to slip away as soon as possible in search of information that would clear Jay of all doubts and bring the true criminal to justice.
He had noticed a piece of old sailcloth lying on the ship floor .With this and a length of string he made a package which looked very much like the one the police had seized .His plan was to step to the shore and hand it over just as the cook had ordered Jay to , hoping in this way to learn the truth about the criminals' activities .He could then persuade the police of his friend's innocence.
By now it was dark.Taking the blandets out of Jay's empty bed , Tom piled them up in his own in the shape of a sleeping figure .How real it looked ! With the blanket pulled up high around the figure's head he could almost believe he saw it breathing.Pleased with this , Tom moved quietly to the door.
He was about to open it when he felt it secretly turned to other way .Someone was outside and about to come in .Was his plan foiled Slipping quickly back behind the door as it opened , Tom waited.
It was the cook who was leaning forward now over the figure in the bed.His arm swung up.For an instant a long knife cut into it.
