I'd see him standing my watch on top of his'n, 'stead of calling me, so I could go on sleeping and see him how glad he was when I come back out of the fog and when I come to him again in the swamp, up there where the feud was and such-like times and would always call me honey, and pet me and do everything he could think of for me, and how good he always was and at last I struck the time I saved him by telling the men we had small-pox aboard, and he was so grateful, and said I was the best friend old Jim ever had in the world, and the ONLY one he's got now and then I happened to look around and see that paper.
