CHAPTER 16: The Recapture Of The Pluto
29/35

I am going to lay the ship alongside that vessel, and recapture her.

They will not see us until we are close on board, and will suppose it is an accident when we run alongside.

No doubt they, like the Pluto, have only a complement of fifty men, and we shall overpower them before they are prepared to offer any resistance.
"No doubt they have prisoners below.

Immediately we have recaptured her, I shall return on board with the rest, leaving you with your fifty men in charge of her.

As soon as you have secured the Genoese, free any prisoners there may be in the hold.
