But you no tink it am berer to take boat away--pull him out ob sight ?" "No, Sambo; I have thought on that subject already, and have come to the conclusion that it is better to let the boat remain.

You see they have placed it in such a way that as long as daylight lasted it could be seen from the settlement, and even now it is visible at some distance, as you see.

If we were to remove it, they would at once observe that it was gone, and thus be put on their guard.

No, no, Sambo.

I may not be fond of ambushments, but I flatter myself that I have some talent for such matters." The master and servant had reached the beach by this time, where they found the boat in the exact position that had been indicated by John Bumpus.
