Остров сокровищ / Treasure Island

The paper has been sealed in several places. The doctor opened the seals with great care, and there fell out the map of an island, with latitude and longitude, names of hills and bays. It was about nine miles long and five across, and had two harbours, and a hill in the centre part marked � The Spy-glass [22 - The Spy-glass – Подзорная Труба]’. There were three crosses of red ink – two on the north part of the island, one in the southwest—and beside this last these words: “Bulk of treasure here [23 - Bulk of treasure here – Основная часть сокровищ здесь.

Over on the back the same hand had written this further information:

“Tall tree, Spy-glass shoulder, bearing a point to the N. of N.N.E.

Skeleton Island E.S.E. and by E [24 - Tall tree, Spy-glass shoulder, bearing a point to the N. of N.N.E. Skeleton Island E.S.E. and by E. – Высокое дерево на плече Подзорной Трубы, направление к С.

Ten feet.

    J.F.”

That was all; and to me incomprehensible, but it filled the squire and Dr. Livesey with delight.

“Livesey,” said the squire, “you will give up your practice at once. Tomorrow I start for Bristol. In three weeks’ time we’ll have the best ship, sir, and the best crew in England. Hawkins [25 - Hawkins – Хокинс] will come as cabin-boy [26 - cabin-boy – юнга].

“Trelawney,” said the doctor, “I’ll go with you; so will Jim. There’s only one man I’m afraid of.”

“And who’s that?” cried the squire.

“You!” replied the doctor. “For you cannot hold your tongue. We are not the only men who know of this paper.”

“Livesey,” said the squire, “I’ll be as silent as the grave.”

So the weeks passed on, till one fine day there came a letter addressed to Dr. Livesey, with the addition “To be opened, in the case of his absence, by Tom Redruth or young Hawkins”. I found the following important news:

Dear Livesey,

The ship is bought and fitted, and ready for sea. The name, HispaniolaВ [28 - Hispaniola – Р?спаньола]. I got it through my old friend, BlandlyВ [29 - Blandly – Блендли].
