The Apple Barrel

There were two tall wooden barrels on deck. One of the barrels had fresh water inside. There were apples inside the other barrel. The men could take apples and water whenever they wanted. We had been at sea for a month. The apple barrel eas nearly empty. I climbed into the barrel because I couldn't see the bottom of it. There were only one or two apples left. I started to eat one while I was inside the barrel. It was warm and the movement of the ship made me sleepy and I fell asleep for a few minutes.

Suddenly I woke up when I heard voices. One voice was of Long John Silver and the other voice was a young sailor. I sailed with Flint, said Silver. I was fighting for Flint when I lost my leg.  A cannon shot blew my leg off, the same cannon shot made Pew blind. Most of the men aboard this ship sailed with Flint too. I hired the crew. They know me, they are my shipmates. Silver continued talking with the other man and said Let the Squire and his friends take us to the island. They've got the map. Let them find the treasure - Flint's treasure. and after that we'll kill them all.

Suddenly their conversation stopped because one man shouted Isee land! I took advantage of this moment and left the barrel.

The Captain Smollett gave permission to the crew for drink some rum. Then he went to his cabin whit Squire Trelawney and Dr. Livesey. I follow them and I said them what Silver had said. Captain Smollett believed me immediatly. So He said, We must make careful plans.
