Chapter 9 

Chivalry or Villainy 

From her cabin port upon the Kincaid, Jane Clayton had seen her husband rowed to the verdure-clad shore of Jungle Island, and then the ship once more proceeded upon its way. 

For several days she saw no one other than Sven Anderssen, the Kincaid's taciturn and repellent cook. She asked him the name of the shore upon which her husband had been set. 

"Ay tank it blow purty soon purty hard," replied the Swede, and that was all that she could get out of him. 

She had come to the conclusion that he spoke no other English, and so she ceased to importune him for information; but never did she forget to greet him pleasantly or to thank him for the hideous, nauseating meals he brought her. 

Three days from the spot where Tarzan had been marooned the Kincaid came to anchor in the mouth of a great river, and presently Rokoff came to Jane Clayton's cabin. 

"We have arrived, my dear," he said, with a sickening leer. "I have come to offer you safety, liberty, and ease. My heart has been softened toward you in your suffering, and I would make amends as best I may. 

"Your husband was a brute--you know that best who found him naked in his native jungle, roaming wild with the savage beasts that were his fellows. Now I am a gentleman, not only born of noble blood, but raised gently as befits a man of quality. 

"To you, dear Jane, I offer the love of a cultured man and association with one of culture and refinement, which you must have sorely missed in your relations with the poor ape that through your girlish infatuation you married so thoughtlessly. I love you, Jane. You have but to say the word and no further sorrows shall afflict you--even your baby shall be returned to you unharmed." 
What will be returned without harm?
Who was the cook?
Did he talk much?
What was his nationality?
Did he speak English fluently?
Who was rowed ashore?
And his name?
What was the name of the boat?
Where was Tarzan abandoned?
Who visited Jane's room?
Did he want her?
Was he a commoner?
Did Jane like the food?
Was she courteous to him?
Where was the boat anchored?
Who was nude?
Who did he hang out with?
What was she offered?
what animal did he call Tarzan?
Jane's baby.
 You have but to say the word and no further sorrows shall afflict you--even your baby shall be returned to you unharmed."
