I have terrible news . '' The doctor changed countenance a little , but next moment he was master of himself . `` Thank you , Jim , '' said he quite loudly , `` that was all I wanted to know , '' as if he had asked me a question . And with that he turned on his heel and rejoined the other two . They spoke together for a little , and though none of them started , or raised his voice , or so much as whistled , it was plain enough that Dr. Livesey had communicated my request , for the next thing that I heard was the captain giving an order to Job Anderson , and all hands were piped on deck . `` My lads , '' said Captain Smollett , `` I 've a word to say to you . This land that we have sighted is the place we have been sailing for . Mr. Trelawney , being a very open-handed gentleman , as we all know , has just asked me a word or two , and as I was able to tell him that every man on board had done his duty , alow and aloft , as I never ask to see it done better , why , he and I and the doctor are going below to the cabin to drink YOUR health and luck , and you 'll have grog served out for you to drink OUR health and luck . I 'll tell you what I think of this : I think it handsome . And if you think as I do , you 'll give a good sea-cheer for the gentleman that does it . '' The cheer followed -- that was a matter of course ; but it rang out so full and hearty that I confess I could hardly believe these same men were plotting for our blood . `` One more cheer for Cap'n Smollett , '' cried Long John when the first had subsided . And this also was given with a will . On the top of that the three gentlemen went below , and not long after , word was sent forward that Jim Hawkins was wanted in the cabin . I found them all three seated round the table , a bottle of Spanish wine and some raisins before them , and the doctor smoking away , with his wig on his lap , and that , I knew , was a sign that he was agitated . The stern window was open , for it was a warm night , and you could see the moon shining behind on the ship 's wake . `` Now , Hawkins , '' said the squire , `` you have something to say . Speak up . '' I did as I was bid , and as short as I could make it , told the whole details of Silver 's conversation . Nobody interrupted me till I was done , nor did any one of the three of them make so much as a movement , but they kept their eyes upon my face from first to last .
`` Jim , '' said Dr. XXXXX , `` take a seat . ''
