 Here MT. Vanslyperken remembered his dream, and the difficulty which he had in driving Smabones soul out of his body, and he fearful that even keelhanl- ing would not settle Smabones

 By the directions of Mir. Vapslyperken, the hauling ropes and other tackle were collected by the marines, for the seamen stood by, and seemed resolved 10 d man, to do nohing and, in about half an hour all was ready. Four marines manned the hauling line, one was placed at each side rope fastened to the lads arms and the corporal had directions attend to the bow-ine, as he had lifted the body of Small bones over the larboard gunne and not allow him to be dragged too fast: better selection for this pur cOud have bean made thau Carnoral Nan Splitter.
