Love we sail in half the hour south's the course all hands on deck the Congo Queen was 300 tons between her jibs and her spanker and fleece in the teeth of the wind a three-mastered chip with canvas five high in the smell of her trade in her wood I beat it a window'd cleared the bay turned her south and took a fresh wind over a stern trimmed and sailing free for the end of Sanford's rainbow Sanford his birth was mine the key to his sea chest hung from my neck secure inside his iron-bound chest was the proof of his drunken boast notes more coins green with age a leather-bound book and apartment chart of Spanish legend all I lacked was the name of the men who were in it with him but I knew they'd show themselves soon enough they'd be the ones who hated me most meantime I had the whaling trade to learn my life to guard against unknown men and a new captain to please I joined captain at the wheel I've been expecting you mr. Love I serve he lay the formality man respect is not in your nature you're right captain and wrong what's our destination well you might as well know you're not just my first officer you're a confessed killer and this is the high seas one false step and you're my prisoner the matter is closed closed it is but not like sir our destination captain you go as far as your behavior takes you we the queen and the rest of my crew hail new bed foot in time first the horn and the 60 latitude God willing 60 latitudes and ice then hi ice but also whales many and big sperm blues humpback we should feel quick with luck you'll see mr. Love secure the watch I serve from now on it's watch and watch four and four keep them moving smart tired men don't make trouble that includes you love watch and watch for and for it is her she was a tight ship on the fixed and still I added my bit to the squeeze I drove the crew hard made him hate my guts and spit at my back they left me alone and that's what I wanted kept my cabin secure inside her out while I fit Sanford's plan with my own how the fool could have waited I'll never know the cash of gold was described in his notes he'd been to the site from the Caribbean site yet he sailed halfway around the world because he needed four men four men who were on board four men who would kill to put hand to my book and my chart now we were fast hauling south had to tempt them to show their hand the bait was the book with some pages cut out the false rolled chart and an open hatch we were in Mexican water sailing hard on the wind I was in my hammock a tired dog and sleep was a fitful thing hold up holding your tracks you even ate I groped like a fool for my pistol and my man got away in the night he'd come to open Sanford's chest next time he'd come to kill another week past while I studied the crew four men and 30 all keeping their thoughts in their beards some were mean some were meek some mutinous some too welling in their work under four of those beards with Sanford's men another two days and lady luck sent me to my quarters in the middle of the day I needed to fill my pipe Johnson what brings you to my quarters mr. love sir I was just putting things in order I see now come on get up on your feet and talk come on up now what are you looking for Johnson well like I say I'm hiding in your shirt which is just a book sir just a book it is give it to me just a book for certain and what else what else in your shirt ah a land chart of Panama is it you read maps to save the lies Johnson you're looking for Sanford's secret you might as well know that it's mine now I know you were in it with Sanford in with Sanford mr. love I don't follow you will if you hope to make any good from Sanford's plan I you'll follow me in the other three will too are you talking in riddles man riddles is it and well you took the bait good Johnson I've been expecting you to come pralling I set the bait and you took it but it's wrong Johnson here is the pages that tell the story Johnson read them I don't read sir Tannehill he reads sir I'll read it to you but listen well Paley Sanford 1838 it says right here in his own handwriting listen to this the name of the book sir Francis Drake revived calling upon this dull and effeminate age to follow his noble steps for gold and silver pretty thought isn't it Johnson it's a hot and story I'm told at Tannehill was to read it to me on a wager sir say the lies Johnson just listen to this where Sanford marked now listen he keepeth a hundred slaves at least in the mines each slave being bound to bring in daily clear gain all charges deducted three pesos of gold for himself and two for his women it goes on to say Johnson that the daily haul daily mind you was sixteen hundred pounds sterling translated that's roughly fifty thousand dollars every day well now listen which he keepeth in certain great chests of two feet deep three broad and four long just think of it Johnson caskets full of gold now you were in with Sanford Johnson what does this mean to us I don't understand sir it's just a tale to amuse that's all I wanted to say the hours along in the fox will say that's enough of your sempering Johnson who are the others it's your bull crew isn't it Tannehill big to be an orchard you call in names with your dying breath be sensible now man I'm willing to put in with you you need a leader and I need men and I hold the map in the book when you're ready to talk sense fetch your men here I'll show up Mr. Love I'll show up and Johnson I'll kill the man on site I catch near my quarters is that clear hey Mr. Love we know killing ourselves you may not see the light of another day motorists do you realize how many practical improvement science has given you for your car for example you get better gasoline because scientific research discovered xylene xylene is one of the highest antinote components in gasoline history xylene gives new high antinote qualities new flashing power to gasoline but here's the big news today every gallon of richfield gasoline contains xylene let me repeat that every gallon of richfield gasoline contains xylene xylene for split second pickup and traffic for smooth knockless power all the time moreover your richfield dealer offers you a choice of two great richfield gasoline both containing xylene get richfield high octane at regular price for the average motor our richfield ethyl for best results in the highest compression motors each is a champion in its class stop where you see the richfield eagle on the cream and blue pups get richfield gasoline with xylene and now we return you to escape let Johnson go because I needed him I needed his men to be my crew to sail a ship to fight a jungle to move a mine I thought I could wait till they came to me but the Devil's bait is a gilded hook when it catches your flesh you can't shake it loose so I read and reread and traced and retraced in my mind and it grew and it grew and it grew and it said gold now we were south of Mexico and time was growing short I went to Johnson on deck and took a desperate move Johnson this is your last chance show up tonight with your manner I picked my own and leave you out I don't be a fool you'll kill it for all of us all but me Johnson I'll take you in if it's all right with my crew my men your crew on your board crew does as I thought do I use yours or get my own I will talk it out I'm losing my patience Johnson bring your men to my cabinet eight bells or I get my own if the men agree we'll be there at eight bells was a long chance but it worked at eight bells they came to my cabin Johnson Tanner Hill Bigsby and all cut here we are Mr. Love come in keep quiet all right believe the talk I gather on the charts and there's one point I want clear I'm giving orders and they're not going to be mislead I understand nobody else any man who doesn't like it can talk up now we're taking you you're wrong Johnson as Sanford's legal I've got nine points of the law right here on this table this map and this book and the know how he's right so the greats Johnson we need a man with learning how about it men all right that's settled understand Johnson all right close in on this chart I'll show you where Sanford was wrong now here right here was our position of the noon site but approximately 12 degrees 30 minutes north by 82 degrees 40 minutes west see where that puts us not over four degrees off the coast of Panama you see man but you've still got around the horn maps from the other side sure the Spanish chart shows a bearing from the Caribbean side but look carry that bearing on across Panama and the Pacific now look where we are we ain't a day away don't have to round the sand but never thought of that now we don't have to go through with any wailing look between these two mountains is a saddle that's the mine the bulk of the treasure is shown on the Spaniards map right here at the highest point in this defile well that ain't a day's march over right we can forget whaling we don't have to round the horn and this side fits my plan much what is your plan about the boats now boats be hanged I say take the ship mutiny call it what you want this half of the world won't be a healthy place for any of us I say take the ship get the golden head southeast lands big lands new lands and gold talks and any of you got a good opinion of yourself love we're five against 25 26 count in the captain we can't take ship you're wrong Johnson you forget where whalesman we've seen whales every day lately the order was given five boats out after whales would take care of 25 men the captain won't take wheel to the south of the horn you'll never give the order that's the first time you've been right Johnson he won't give the order but I will five boats out take care of 25 men and I'll see that none of us five boats with salt and their water breakers and no ship to come home to do you follow me the current will take him to see from there on its david jones worry we get the gold head south scuttled the queen and as far as everybody knows all hands are lost then it's every man to his own pleasure with plenty of gold up by it I say we got the right man to lead us my awesome whether you're the smart one before another night falls men will have us a ship in a week will have gold for ballast enough to buy us a king I'll break it up quiet and mind your actions as far as Thickston's concerned there's nothing changed and I'll still flock the man that falls in order I'll lay down to quarter sharp and quiet I'll pass the word when the time comes all we need is a whale men one whale and the ship is ours was a neat plan and it carried fair the watch changed day broke gray Johnson was at the helm bigsby stood look out high in the fort of gallant yards all on orders of Jonas love I captain Thickston was lashed in his bunk I saved him to kill him with the loss of his ship the proud captain Thickston a prisoner of captain love but now we were whalesmen in search of a whale anyway was watch and wait and watch clockwork love that's what it is I've got to hand it to you did you tend to my orders Johnson about the water breakers and I'd like to see the face of the first thirsty man I gave him side me to good salt hog side I wet their thirst they won't last two weeks they're picked up before it won't make any difference oh we need is a jolly Roger from our royal yard love not quite Johnson Thickston still with us on a hill I sir carried person you got your knife down a hill Thickston's tied in this cabin make it fast and sure I sir fast and sure do I bring her about love you'll bring her about when I tell you to Johnson and you'll belay the mister when I tell you to not before is that understood well that's it bring her about Johnson he's for soft studies you go our next step is Panama man golden Panama pay you to know love now all our stations is equal it for the one against you and all of us views the same Johnson it'll pay you to know that the man who crosses me cuts those odds by one now fell out on your course the wind took us east and the current went west carrying before it the crew of the Queen five drifting whale boats of hopeless men lay at our stern a bow like a finger points to fortune store Panama a land green black with traffic growth and our treasure cradled in a mountain nest on her backbone I put into fair anchorage in the lead of a point paid off the hook and call my men we right up tonight here in this bay men well there she is right up the mountain the low point between those two we still some daylight love I say move now you'll do no say in Johnson we move now right enough but we'll do it on board with provision the whale boat for 10 days 10 days white scarce looks a leak that it does tannahill but it's a stormy course that's jungle growth we'll have to fight it all the way to the top and we'll have no more crossing makes me look at provisions load the whale boat tannahill and I'll cut break out the forge and fashion niers from flincing tools make them shorten my handle and keen on the edge you three men stay on a board you'll take up the work till me and Johnson cast off we'll need our strength us stay in a board you take us we'll stay aboard that's an order a man who thinks different step up and speak you got the map Mr. Love men don't like it that way well let's see you men it ain't bad what's to keep you from going straight out the other side yes how do we know you're coming back hold it now I've got the map you're right it's not fair that one man should have it tannahill give me your knife you men don't trust me you do trust Johnson it's very well so here Johnson have for me now does that satisfy you hi hi Johnson's for us fair enough but you'd better come back we'll follow you to the gates of hell if you don't it's fools who'd leave a ship on man you'll get your share when we open the trail Johnson and me all right now turn to bear a hand there's a fortune waiting the dawn simple arrogant fools and Johnson too content with a worthless half of a map landmarks and plain sight the last and main bearing stowed safe in my head every bearing and distance to the final pace memorized from a thousand readings now to find the starting point the rock with a face and Sanford's notes certain great chests of two feet deep three broad and four long ponderous heavy a wall of jungle the cut I needed these fools even Johnson for a time jungle lush rich gentle that's a trap a slimy stinking creeping green trap hold up Johnson fetch up the water and bugs heat green snare take the lead Johnson no man can keep this up I say belay it and rest we need a strength we move on Johnson we've hacked half a day and we're not a cables link from the sea take the lead not last we hold this pace look at the blasted insects hanging clouds I say make camp likely tomorrow we'll get a second wind we'll get it on the move Johnson there's still three hours of day I'll take the lead and swing that knife for five killing days it was hack slash hack move up the gear creep on at a tortoise pace the sixth day the mountain fanned out on our course and we rose above that green wall of jungle and we could see the masts of the queen wave gently not four leagues down the slope the sea breeze caught us and cooled our brow the jungles web then and we rested we ate and we smoked we've passed the worst of it another day at the most Johnson you look bad Johnson too much for you there's a powerful gripe my back don't be feeling sorry for yourself I don't feel it's gonna rig myself I'll take up your gear I'm moving on I can't move on you want gold don't you Johnson fall in your rotten your tracks there's more for the rest of us now move out nothing stopping me now the great bearded Johnson with the strength of two men he spent his strength with harboring hate and he fell to blithering his big bloody eyes cast up the trail useless he was weak and out of his mind chop the lines she's sounding she's sound what is it Johnson you're drooling black she'd get a thousand barrels if I drop sir sperm whale I've seen of my own two eyes Johnson Johnson do you know me man hi captain 60 yeah you're through Johnson I'm moving on the rocks inside I've no time for you now that's too south 50 bases to such a point is but but there
