Excerpt from The Golden Rod, Vol. 41: Published Quarterly by the Pupils of the Quincy High School; November 1928
The noises grew louder and louder and he could hear the faint Voices Of the natives running wild for their lives. All of a sudden Jimmie jumped up, and, as his last chance, tugged and banged him self against the iron bars, but it was of no use, for the bars had not been put there to be removed by human beings, and finally, he too fell to the floor unconscious.
When Jimmie came to he heard voices Off 1n the distance, he could hear English voices, they came nearer and nearer and were finally yelling at him; he could hear some one say, And the little negro and this man are the only survivors. He jumped up, but was gently pushed back on something soft - it was a pillow. When Jimmie looked around, he didn't know whether he was in heaven, a dream, or really' alive. Then coming entirely to his senses, he realized he was in a cabin Of a ship, surrounded by people from his own country.
Jimmie' S first thought was Of the little negro boy; what had become of him? Someone pointed to a bed on the other side of the cabin, and there he was, lean ing on his elbow, much more bewildered than was Jim'mie himself.
