The Old Pirate
My name is Jim Hawkins.I am going to tell you a story about pirates and treasure. This story started a long time ago, in the year 1756, when I was twelve years old.
My father owned an inn called The Admiral Benbow. It was a small inn on the south coast of England. The Admiral Benbow was not very busy. We did not get many customers.
Sometimes travellers stayed at the inn. They could buy a meal and have something to drink. They usually stayed for only one night. But I remember one traveller who stayed at The Admiral Benbow for several weeks.
I remember the day he arrived. A horse and cart came along the road and stopped outside the inn. An old sailor got down from the cart and came to the inn door. He was singing a sailor's song.
Fifteen men on the dead man's chest Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum!
The old sailor knocked loudly on the inn door and my father opened it. I stood next to my father and looked at the sailor.
The man was tall and his face was brown from the sun. His hair was white. It was tied in a tail at the back of his head. He wore an old blue coat.
'Bring me a glass of rum,' the sailor said loudly to my father.
I looked at the horse and cart. There was a wooden box on the cart the sailor's wooden chest. It was big and it looked heavy.
'Do many people stay here?' the sailor asked my father.
'Not many,' my father replied. 'We always have empty rooms.'
'Good. l will stay here,' said the sailor.'I will stay here for several weeks.' He took some money out of his pocket.'Take this money.Tell me when I have spent it all.'
He gave my father four gold coins.
Thank you, sir,' said my father. 'May I ask your name?'
'Call me Captain,' said the sailor.'Now, bring my chest and show me my room.
My father carried the heavy wooden chest into the inn. He carried it to the Captain's room. I did not know what was in the chest, but it looked very heavy.
The Captain stayed for several weeks. I was afraid of him. He drank bottles of rum and he was drunk every day. He sang songs and shouted loudly when he was drunk.
'Boy!'he shouted. 'Bring me more rum!'
When I had brought the rum he told me stories. He told stories about pirates and ships. He told me about robbing ships and killing men. Then he sang sailors' songs.
'Jim,' the Captain often said to me,Jim-look out for a man with one leg. Watch for a man with one leg. Tell me if you see him. Do this and I'll pay you well.'
I said nothing. I was too afraid to speak. Who was this man with one leg?
Winter came and my father fell sick. He was very ill and the doctor came to see him every day. The doctor's name was Dr Livesey. He said my father did not have long to live.
My mother and I were very busy.We had to look after the inn while my father lay ill in bed. But my father did not get much rest. The Captain drank rum and sang and shouted.
'Please be quiet,' Dr Livesey said to the Captain.'There is a very sick man upstairs.'
'What?'shouted the Captain. 'What did you say? No one tells me what to do!' He pulled a knife out of the pocket of his coat.
'Put that knife down at once,'
Dr Livesey said. He stared hard at the Captain. 'Put that knife down. Or I will call the soldiers to arrest you.'
The Captain stared at Dr Livesey, but he put down the knife. He drank another glass of rum.
'And if you drink rum every day, you will soon be dead,' the doctor went on.
The Captain was quiet for several days.
Dr Livesey was visiting my father one morning when a stranger came to the inn. The Doctor was upstairs with my father and mother. I was alone downstairs, in the main room of the inn.
The stranger opened the front door and looked at me.I did not like the man. He was dirty and had a ragged beard. His face and hard and cruel.
'I don't know Captain Bill,' I replied. I did not want to tell the man anything.
'l know he's staying here,'said the stranger. 'I want to to him.'
The Captain came into the room. He did not know the stranger was there.
'Hello, Billy,' said the stranger
'Black Dog!' said the Captain. His face the white. 'What do you want?'
'We must talk,' said Black Dog to the Captain.Then the stranger shouted to me,'Get us some rum, boy.'
I went back into the room. The Captain had a short,heavy sword called a cutlass. He raised the cutlass and ran towards Black Dog. Black Dog ran out of the inn. The Captain chased him and swung his cutlass at Black Dog's head. But the Captain didn't hit him. The cutlass hit the wooden sign above the inn door. Black Dog escaped and ran down the road.
The Captain stopped running and turned round. His face was colour. He stepped back into inn and fell on the floor.
'Dr Livesey!' I called.'Dr Livesey! Help!'
Dr Livesey came downstairs from my father's room. He looked closely at the Captain.
'I said that rum is going to kill him,' Dr Livesey said. 'We must put him to bed. Let him sleep.'
I helped the Doctor to put the Captain into his bed. We now had two sick men in the house and I looked after them both. But soon there was only one sick man because my father died suddenly one night.
The Black Spot
Dr Livesey was very kind. He helped us make arrangements for my father's funeral.
The Captain did not leave his bed for many days.He did not get up until after the funeral. When he got up he started to drink rum.
'I must get away from here,
Jim,'the Captain said to me.' Tell Dr livesey. Tell him I was a pirate. Tell him I sailed on Captain Flint's ship.'
stories about I had heard of Captain Flint. Sailors told him. Captain Flint had been a terrible pirate. He had killed many men and robbed many ships. 'Flint's men want to find me,' the Captain went on. was on Flint's ship with them. Now they want the chest. They want the sea-chest in my room. I must get away.' But the Captain could not go anywhere. He was too drunk. I heard a noise outside the inn. It was the noise of someone tapping a stick on the road. The noise came closer and closer. Then I heard a voice calling, "Will anyone help me I looked outside and saw a beggar standing in the road. He was dressed in ragged clothes and wore a green cloth over his eyes. He was blind. He tapped a stick in front o him as he walked. Will anyone help a poor blind man?" shouted the beggar, Will anyone tell me where I am?" "You are at The Admiral Benbow Inn," I said. I hear a young voice, a kind voice said the beggar.
