The opportunity to instill a lesson on the savage marauders was too good to be lost.
Softly the procession approached the spot where the marauders were energetically digging.
The ship's own boat was lowered, and into this the marauders put their booty, and took it ashore, also carrying the captain and one of the crew with them.
Now I propose to take four of our class, and you must select four of yours. We'll hustle out there the minute school is over to-morrow, and be ready to receive the marauders when they arrive.
