CHAPTER )(V
THE RANSOM •
In the glory of the following morn -
hag, sparkling and clear after the
storm, with an invigorating,' briny
tang in the air from the saltpond
on the south of the . island, a
curios scene was played on the beach . rs
of the Virgen 1Vlagra, at the foot of a 2
ridge -of bleached dunes; beside the
spread of sail from which Levasseur
had improvised' a tent.
Enthoned upon an empty cash sell
the French filibuster to transact im-
portant business; the business of
making himself safe with the Govern-
or of Tortuga. Before him, 'guarded
by two half -naked negroes, ` stood
,young d'Ogeron. ` Near at hand, and l'
under guard, mademoiselle his sister SI
sat hunched upon a hillock of sand.
Levasseur addressed himself to M.
d'Ogeron.
"`1 trust, monsieur," said he, with
'mock suavity, "that I have made my -
'self quite clear. Your ransom is fix-
led
ixled at twenty,tli'ousand pieces of eight,
and you shall have liberty on; paro:u:,
to go to Tortuga to collect it. 'Mean-
while, your sister remains with ire as
a hostage."
"1 refuse—utterly. andabsolutely,
do you understand? So do . your
worst, and be damned for a filthy pir-
,
ate," cried d'Ogeron.
