Symzonia: Voyage of Discovery
·
Captain Adam Seaborn
49
We
arrived
at
Take-in
harbour
next
day.
Mr.
Boneto's
party
had
been
actively
employed,
and
had
already
secured
seven
thousand
seal
skins.
I
collected
all
my
officers
on
board,
and
acquainted
them
with
such
of
my
plans
as
I
thought
it
prudent
to
disclose.
The
first
was
to
land
thirty
of
the
crew
at
a
group
of
islands
which
formed
a
snug
harbour
near
the
mouth
of
Mammoth
River;
to
erect
on
one
of
the
islands
sufficient
buildings
to
protect
them
from
the
severity
of
the
winter,
in
case
it
should
become
necessary
to
remain
there
until
another
season,
and
large
enough
to
contain
a
fair
share
of
all
the
stores
on
board,
in
proportion
to
their
numbers,
so
that
they
might
fare
as
well
as
those
who
remained
in
the
ship.
I
told
them
that
I
should
proceed
to
the
S.
E.
along
the
coast,
to
ascertain
where
was
the
best
sealing
ground
to
remove
to
when
these
Islands
should
be
cleared
of
seals,
and
to
discover
whether
the
land
extended
a
sufficient
distance
on
the
other
side
of
the
pole
to
open
a
passage
for
us
to
sail
over
the
pole,
and
thus
proceed
to
Canton
by
steering
due
north,
which
would
save
a
great
deal
of
time.
This
was
all
according
to
their
notions
of
things;
but
I
was
well
aware
that
when
they
would
suppose
we
were
sailing
northward
on
the
other
side
of
the
globe,
we
should
in
fact
be
sailing
directly
into
it
through
the
opening.
No
objections
were
made
to
this
plan,
as
it
all
seemed
feasible
enough.
But
I
was
at
a
loss
as
to
the
officers
I
should
leave
with
this
party.
In
exploring
the
internal
regions,
I
should
want
all
my
best
officers;
and
although
Slim
was
an
excellent
sealer,
it
would
not
do
to
leave
him
with
the
command
of
the
party,
for
I
should
be
sure
to
find
the
men
all
ripe
for
mutiny
on
my
return.
I
at
last
determined
to
give
Mr.
Boneto
the
charge
of
the
establishment,
with
the
boatswain
to
assist
him;
to
keep
Albicore,
Slim,
and
Mackerel
in
the
ship,
and
give
Jack
Whiffle
the
birth
of
acting
boatswain.
