[00:00.72]Chapter 6.
[00:02.02]Captain Flint's Secret.
[00:03.94]Doctor Livesey's maid told us that he was at Squire Trelawney's house.
[00:09.43]An hour later, we were sitting in the Squire's library in front of a bright fire.
[00:16.45]Mr. Dance told them the whole story, and long before it was finished, Squire Trelawney was striding about the room excitedly.
[00:25.40]He was a tall, broad-chested man with a red face.
[00:30.45]His eyebrows were very black, which made him look short-tempered.
[00:37.47]When Mr. Dance had gone, the doctor turned to me.
[00:43.77]So, Jim, you have the thing they were after, have you?
[00:50.82]Here it is, sir, I said, handing him the oil skin packet.
[00:57.63]You've heard of this Flint, I suppose, he asked the squire.
[01:03.35]Heard of him, said the squire.
[01:07.70]He was the most blood thirsty pirate that ever sailed.
[01:15.79]Well then, what if this packet here is a clue to where Flint buried his treasure?
[01:24.75]Would it be worth something?
[01:27.98]Worth something, cried the squire.
[01:32.29]It would be worth enough for me to hire a ship in Bristol, and take you and Hawkins here along to find the treasure.
[01:42.46]Doctor Livesey smiled and opened the package on the table.
[01:48.72]Out fell a map of an island 9 miles long.
[01:55.95]On one side of the island was a hill marked Spyglass Hill.
[02:04.74]What interested us most were three crosses in red ink.
[02:11.47]Next to one was written neatly, bulk of treasure here.
[02:21.04]There was no doubt.
[02:23.68]We were looking at Captain Flint's treasure map.
[02:29.93]Over on the back, there was more in the same handwriting.
[02:37.42]Tall tree, spy glass shoulder, bearing a point to the north of North North East.
[02:47.65]Skeleton Island, east, south east and by east, 10 feet.
[02:55.82]The silver bar is in the north pit.
[03:03.94]You can find it by the slope of the East hill.
[03:08.98]10 fathoms south of the black crag with the face on it.
[03:14.89]The arms are easily found in the sand hill.
[03:19.54]North point of North Inlet Cape, bearing east and a quarter north.
[03:30.32]That was all, but it was enough to convince the squire that we were looking at the key to Flint's treasure.
[03:39.55]Livesey, he said.
[03:43.32]Tomorrow I will go to Bristol, and in three weeks time, we'll have the best ship and the finest crew in England.
[03:54.83]Hawkins will come along as cabin boy.
[04:00.83]You will be our ship's doctor.
[04:05.41]We'll take my own men, Red Ruth, Hunter and Joyce.
[04:12.48]With fair winds and this map, we'll find the treasure and live like kings for the rest of our lives.
[04:22.28]Traloni, I'll go with you, said the doctor.
[04:27.98]I'm sure Jim will too.
[04:31.85]There's only one man I'm afraid of.
[04:35.98]Who? asked the squire.
[04:39.96]Name the dog.
[04:43.78]You, replied the doctor, because you cannot hold your tongue.
[04:53.45]We aren't the only ones who know about this map.
[04:58.78]These men who raided the inn tonight were bold desperate fellows, and they mean to have this treasure.
[05:08.17]We must be careful and not breathe a word of this map to anyone.
[05:16.20]Livesey, you're right, as always, said the squire.
[05:22.50]I shall be silent as the grave.
