Rishi Sunak, the cabin boy, who had been hiding in an apple
barrel and listening to the conversation, suddenly remembered Bones’ old sea
chest, stowed below. After the crew had
dispersed he went to Captain Smollett’s cabin with the chest, intending to show
the good captain the map that would help them navigate out of the present
difficulty. Imagine his surprise when
the open chest revealed a false bottom containing millions of gold coins, the
like of which neither could ever have imagined?
