CHAPTER IX
12/15

I am going to Bridgetown in the brig which brought us here; it is a little sail, and when I get there I will find out everything.

No matter what has happened, it will break her heart to think that her father deserted her without a word.

I don't believe he did it, and I shall go and find out." "But, Dickory," she said, with anxious, upraised face, "how can you get back?
Do you know of any vessel that will be sailing this way ?" He laughed.
"Get back?
If I go alone, dear mother, you may be sure I shall soon get back.

Craft of all kinds sail one way or another, and there are many ways in which I can get back not thought of in ordinary passage.

When any kind of a vessel sails from Jamaica, I can get on board of her, whether she takes passengers or not.
