and the ship would' also carry goods, besides
the relatives of the Friends of Skye, on the
return journey. In short, the transportation
of the immigrants would be more than reim-
bursed by the sale of the cargo. There was
no doubt that Kathleen had the wealth for
such an enterprise. She was almost as
affluent as the doctor's wife!
"It will be a merchantman I will choose,"
Captain Jamiesonsaid. "One that has never
carried immigrants before. It will be clean,
and there will beample fresh water and
food. I shall care for each one of the
passengers as if they were one of my own
REDTREES
by Don Campbell
family. Did I not bring you safely to these
shores myself?"
There were cries of 'aye, that you did"
and "if anybody can do it, ye can captain!"
After theemazing revelation, the crowd once
again broke into a -hubbub. MacCrimmon
banged loudly to restore order.
"There is nay mare tae be said. Jamieson
has made himself responsible. I have no
better suggestion and though it be a great
undertaking, I hae no doubt that the captain
will do everything in his power tae make it a
success, even though he is doing it alone."
"He'll no go alone," the voice of Chippy
Chisholm called out from back of the trhong.
"Frae I shall gae wi"'im!"
"Shut up you silly old fool!" Elizabeth
Chisholm said angrily, jabbing her elbow
into his ribs. "Yr're too old tae be climbing
the rigging."
"Aye that I am, Chippy said with a crafty
smile on his face. "But Captain Jamieson
could'na find a better boatswain tae boss the
crew, than Chippy Chisholm!"
