Also he says little white flag no do, pilot tink him strange, but would tell one ob de men to hang a red shirt, as if to dry, up in de rigging.

At night would show two lights ober de bow for me to know which was de ship.
"Fust dey bind up de wound on my shoulder, den dey gib me food for four days and a bottle of rum, and den row me ashore.

Den Sam start, and before morning he hid in de swampy bush ten miles down de riber.

Late dat afternoon he see a ship come down de riber wid a red shirt in de rigging.
