They lowered a big net into the hold and began moving the bags of wheat. Suddenly one sailor yelled, "Great Scott! This is the queerest bag of wheat I've ever seen! It's all lumpy like, but the label says it's to go to Cranberry." THEY LOWERED A BIG NET INTO THE HOLD AND BEGAN MOVING THE BAGS OF WHEAT SUDDENLY ONE SAILOR YELLED GREAT SCOTT THIS THE QUEEREST BAG WE'D HAVE EVER SEEN IT'S ALL LUMPY LIKE BUT THE LABEL SAYS IT'S GO TO CRANBERRY
night watchman was on duty, so while the cat made loud queer noises to distract his attention, my father ran over the gang-plank onto the ship. He went down into the hold and hid among some bags of wheat. The ship sailed early the next morning. [Illustration] _Chapter Three_ MY FATHER FINDS THE ISLAND My father hid in the hold for six days and nights. Twice he was nearly caught when the ship stopped to take on more cargo. But at last he heard a sailor say that the next port would be Cranberry and that they'd be unloading the wheat there. My father knew that the sailors would send him home if they caught him, so he looked in his knapsack and took out a rubber band and the empty grain bag with the label saying "Cranberry." At the last moment my father got inside the bag, knapsack and all, folded the top of the bag inside, and put the rubber band around the top. He didn't look just exactly like the other bags but it was the best he could do. [Illustration] Soon the sailors came to unload.
