As we had to break out some of our provisions, we closed the hatchway that evening on account of the heavy dew that fell at night After supper we started to load the boat, but as the men were tired they worked slowly. Gamett was growing ugly under the continual nagging by the skipper, and once Frisbow started to remon- strate with the captain for directing his abuse against the mate. This only had the effect of precipitating matters, and Gamett, who was passing some of the gear into the boat al...ongside, threw down the coil of rope he had in his hand and swore a great oath that he would not do another stroke of work until the skipper " mended his jaw tackle.'* This drove the old man into a frenzy, and before we could stop him he grabbed a harpoon and poised it to hurl at the mate. "You mutinous scoundrel," he yelled, "Til show you who's captain of this craft !" Quick as thought 218 Digitized by VjOOQIC To Clipperton Reef he threw the iron, and I believed Gametfs end had come. Quicker still did the old sailor spring to one side, and, grabbing the bomb-gun, let drive at the skip- per's head, while the harpoon drove clear through the port bulwarks and hung there.
