Book excerpt: BY this time the awning had been spread. In the cuddy a crowd of convicts were roaring out the chorus of some vulgar popular song of that time. Will said: 'We have had nothing to eat. Aren't you hungry?' 'Here, you!' exclaimed Tom to the fellow at the helm. 'Jump below to the cuddy and bring us some food and wine to breakfast off. I'll not trust this young gentleman amongst them. You're known as a friend. Johnstone, hold the wheel.' The man went like a dog to the companion-hatch and disappeared down it. 'A worthy example of the British sailor,' said Tom. 'He's one of those fellows who'd swear a man's life and liberty away for a noggin of rum. D'ye see that boat, Marian?' He pointed to a long thin boat, called the captain's gig, that hung by davits over the stern, with the line of her gunwale on a level with the taffrail. 'She'll give us our chance. Johnstone, that'll be the boat we'll make off in. The sooner the better. Hark to them below! Oh, my dear heart, what has your love for me brought you into? Johnstone, the equipment of that boat will be your duty. I shall hold you responsible for everything being in its place when we come to want her.' 'Aye, aye, sir,' answered the lad, with the habit of a sailor in answer to an order. 'Is it true, Tom, that they'd hang you if they found you in command of this ship?' said I. 'There's been murder and piracy, and the ringleaders would be hanged, and I, found in command of the ship, would be reckoned a ringleader. But do not fear. They're not going to catch me. We'll be out of the vessel soon, though heaven help the unhappy ruffians when it comes to our leaving them.' Presently the sailor came up out of the cuddy. He brought a bottle of sherry, a broken tumbler, a plate of white biscuit, and some tinned meat. He said sullenly, as he put the stuff down on the grating, that it was all he could find. There wasn't a whole tumbler to be seen. 'Them convicts is gone mad,' he said, as he sulkily grasped the wheel. 'Them as ain't singing's fighting. The cabin floor's a-running with blood. They're mostly the young 'uns. I never bargained for the likes of this raree-show. What's a-going to befall the fired ship if this sort of carrying-on's to last?' 'It was to be a roasting hot job,' said I pointing to the injured topgallantmast.

Book Synopsis The Tin Ticket by : Deborah J. Swiss
Download or read book The Tin Ticket written by Deborah J. Swiss and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2010-10-05 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The convict women who built a continent..."A moving and fascinating story." --Adam Hochschild, author of King Leopold's Ghost Historian Deborah J. Swiss tells the heartbreaking, horrifying, and ultimately triumphant story of the women exiled from the British Isles and forced into slavery and savagery-who created the most liberated society of their time. The Tin Ticket takes us to the dawn of the nineteenth century and into the lives of Agnes McMillan, whose defiance and resilience carried her to a far more dramatic rebellion; Agnes's best friend Janet Houston, who rescued her from the Glasgow wynds and was also transported to Van Diemen's Land; Ludlow Tedder, forced to choose just one of her four children to accompany her to the other side of the world; Bridget Mulligan, who gave birth to a line of powerful women stretching to the present day. It also tells the tale of Elizabeth Gurney Fry, a Quaker reformer who touched all their lives. Ultimately, it is the story of women discarded by their homeland and forgotten by history-who, by sheer force of will, become the heart and soul of a new nation.
