Jake and the Castaway Daughters
a Novelette by Varkel
Spring, 2000


PROLOG

The clipper ship at the quay, the Fleeting Star, longer and 
sleeker than the tubby Dutch and British ships on either side, was 
for its era a magnificent emblem of Yankee prowess and technical 
achievement.  Its captain leaned smugly against the stays, 
watching Chinese coolies wrestle aboard the last of his cargo: 
tea, porcelain and exotica from the depraved, heathen Middle 
Kingdom.  The man's large nostrils filled with the scent of oak, 
tar, tea and the stench of the dockside.  He was eager to be away, 
to be again at sea and feel his ship come livelier than a woman 
beneath him.

He smiled at the sight of the Reverend Hosea Meron and his three 
young daughters beginning their ascent of the aft gangplank.  They 
were such pretty girls, he thought, even the chubby one.  Meron, a 
missionary, owned enough of the Fleeting Star to be welcomed 
aboard but not enough to question the captain's authority.  On the 
voyage home he and his girls would make a most satisfactory 
audience for the captain's ship-handling skill.

"Good day, Mr. Meron," he called out to the party as it reached 
the deck below him.

"Good morning to you, Captain Norris," Meron replied looking up at 
the gruff seaman whose uniform could have been that of an admiral.  
"It's a fine day to return home."

The two younger girls pulled away, wanting to race about and 
inspect the vessel, but the tallest held them in check, gripping 
their hands tightly.  Except for color they were dressed alike in 
knee-length frocks fluffed by many petticoats, lower legs loosely 
encased in white laced pantaloons, ankle boots and medium sleeves 
bunched high on the arm in the style of the previous decade.  
Their foreheads under wide brimmed bonnets were moist despite 
having just descended from the breeze of their rickshaws, which 
did not surprise the captain.  It was a warm day in Canton.  Sweat 
must often be wiped away from his own forehead and the bare-
chested coolies gleamed with it.

"We'll cast off in a few hours, Mr. Meron.  Would you and your 
lovely daughters honor me with your presence at lunch?"

"We would be delighted, Captain," Meron called back as he turned 
to follow the barefoot sailor who led them to their cabins.

* * *

The two men sat at table in the captain's cabin, enjoying a light 
repast, while the three girls giggled together at another nearby.  
The stern portholes stood open, admitting the cool on-shore 
breeze.

"So you had trouble, I hear, with your first mate.  What's his 
name?"

"Jacob Higgins," the captain replied with a sour look on his face.  
"He somehow managed to ship a good sized cargo of his own here to 
Canton in this very ship.  We caught him easily enough, and while 
he's imprisoned in a converted sail locker, where he belongs, I 
must admit that I'll miss him on the bridge if we run into 
trouble.  He's a good sailor."

"He's a thief," the reverend responded with disdain.  "He's stolen 
from me and from my partners.  Let the court in New York deal with 
the rascal."

The girls suddenly began to squeal for no apparent reason, 
disturbing the men.

"Belle," Meron turned to admonish his eldest daughter, "please 
control those two little imps."

"I want to go to the bottom of the boat, Daddy," little Jill 
stated, coming up to the table.  The pretty ten year old had left 
her bonnet somewhere again, much to the delight of any onlooker, 
because she had the most lustrous, light blonde hair that hung 
from her head in natural ringlets.

"Rats and stink live down there, darling," Meron replied to his 
youngest daughter, pulling her onto his lap.  The captain watched 
with narrowed eyes, thinking ironically of the Chinese wanton, no 
larger and not much older, who had graced his own lap just the 
night before.

As her father's hand closed securely over her abdomen, Jill looked 
up into the captain's eyes and amazed him with a wink.  To the 
captain it seemed deliberately lascivious.  What had this one 
learned among the heathen?  Perhaps to read minds?

"I'm getting sea sick, Daddy," pudgy twelve year old Marie 
complained enviously, wanting a cuddle of her own, despite Belle's 
previously expressed judgment that all of them had grown too big 
to sit on a lap.

"Marie!" Belle protested sternly.  "We're still tied up to the 
dock."  She pulled Marie back from the table, where Jill grinned 
in her father's embrace, knowing that she was his favorite.

Belle was an essentially grown, tall girl of fifteen whose face 
would be beautiful did it not scowl so often in her role as 
surrogate mother to the two younger sisters.  "Belle, darling," 
Meron beamed at her, his favorite in fact, "show the girls around 
the deck.  We'll be leaving soon and then it may not be so 
pleasant."

"Yes, Daddy.  Give me your hands, sisters."

The captain nodded approvingly as the tallest led her sisters out 
onto the bridge deck, now almost cleared of the clutter of port.  
"Quite the leader, isn't she!"

"Oh, yes," the father responded fondly, "and a more serious and 
responsible one you would look long to find.  Their mother died 
trying to birth our fourth and Belle has been my right arm since."  
The man chuckled wryly.  "It pains me to know that somewhere in 
the world today walks a callow lout with no idea of the good 
fortune that awaits him when he takes her to wife."

The captain grinned.  "Thus speaks a father!  You wish to make 
certain, I take it, that your 'callow lout' at least is not 
Chinese?"

"If you mean, is that my reason for taking them home? -- no, the 
European colonies grow in China with every arriving ship.  Didn't 
I understand that you fetched two or three families here on your 
current voyage?"

"Yes, I did.  Excuse me, Mr. Meron; I had no intention of prying."

"Not at all, captain.  I don't mind explaining my reasons.  China 
today is simply not the place to raise white children.  
Licentiousness is the way of life.  You can hire no servant, male 
or female, for whom sexual intimacy is more significant than 
urination or defecation, and God knows they're careless enough 
about that!"

"I take it you discovered this characteristic well after you 
brought your children here?"

"<I> paid it no attention until I caught my youngest inspecting an 
immodest houseboy!  Then I saw evidence of the prevailing attitude 
everywhere I looked.  To you, sir, I'll admit my surprise that my 
wife never noticed such indifference.  But she was an intensely 
loving woman always eager to give anyone the benefit of the doubt.  
God, how I miss her!"

"I'm sure you do," agreed the captain sympathetically.

"I was having great spiritual success in my district, except for 
this sexual abandon that I had failed to notice.  When the girls 
are safe with my sister in Massachusetts, I shall return instanter 
-- possibly on your next voyage out.  Here in China the 
opportunity and need for God's message is unsurpassed anywhere in 
the world."

The captain smiled.  "Don't you find it surprising that such an 
important message, considering the source, had never managed to 
arrive here before?"

Meron drew back to study the man.  "Are you serious?"

The captain shrugged.  "Perhaps not.  Excuse me."  He got to his 
feet, peering out over the long deck.  "What concerns me more 
immediately is that your daughters seem about to enter the 
fo'c'sle.  What they might see there, sir, is worse than any 
possible inspection of houseboys!"



CHAPTER 1:  Castaways

The ship pitched wildly once again, smashing Jake's head painfully 
against the strong door of the converted locker.  He fell to the 
deck in nausea, blood streaming from his scalp, as the ship heaved 
violently back and forth, casting him to the other side of the 
small compartment.

"Oh, Christ!" he moaned aloud, his wail obliterated by the rage of 
the typhoon that tossed the huge ship as if it were a cork.  Above 
him wind with a strength beyond imagination screamed in the 
remains of the rigging.  The whole structure of the ship, oaken 
beams thick as his torso, creaked and snapped in constant 
complaint.  Jake had been at sea for 27 of his 44 years, but never 
had he known such a storm as this.  The wind above was so powerful 
that violent gusts of it penetrated to his prison, deep in the 
hold, strong enough even there to blow out the oil lamp swinging 
in the passage beyond his barred door.  A few other lights 
remained in the hold, enough for him barely to make out the 
silhouette of a hand held before his face.

And now water splashed over him as the ship rolled!  He struggled 
to his feet, holding to the bars of the door, cold with sudden 
fear for his life.

A crash loud as thunder rang through the ship and his hands were 
torn from the bars.  He fetched up on the soggy remains of his 
bedding.  Had the mainmast snapped off?  A terrible grinding sound 
reverberated through the ship, on and on, making his teeth ache.  
No, not the mast.  Most of the motion had ceased; what remained 
seemed to be more pitch than roll, and the deck beneath his feet 
now sloped permanently upward toward the bow.  His cold fear 
increased as he understood.  The Fleeting Star was fleet no 
longer.  Its back was broken on rock.  The grinding meant that the 
storm would soon tear it apart.

At least it would be easier to stand now.  He forced himself up, 
reaching again for the iron bars.  The light was just bright 
enough for his astonished eyes to see that the door stood open.  
The crash on the rocks had forced the locking bar from its hasps.

"Get out, we're sinking!" a voice screamed from somewhere in the 
hold, barely audible above the terrible grinding.  Instantly Jake 
launched himself through the open door.

Water rushed at his ankles as he made his way to the nearest 
companionway.  Death seemed fairly certain as he coughed his way 
toward the upper decks, but less so than in the dark of the hold, 
now filled with choking dust from the disturbed cargo.  He knew 
that some kinds of dust, tea in particular, were explosive and 
that lamps were yet lit in the ship.  He seemed to fly up the 
steps.

He reached the well deck intent only upon escape and forced open 
the fo'c'sle entrance.  Without hesitation he threw himself into 
the pitch darkness of the main deck -- and slammed into a wall of 
water.  Immediately he was submerged, alternately lifted and 
dashed down, twisting and turning crazily, arms and legs flung 
about by overwhelming forces.  Great rushing sounds and monstrous 
gurglings pounded his ears through the water.

He knew only that he was about to die.  His lungs were bursting.   
The run up the companionway had already exhausted his oxygen and 
he had taken no time to replenish it.  Though the violent 
confusion had eased, he gave up.  He opened his mouth to suck in 
the killing fluid.

But it was air that filled his lungs.  Sweet, incredible air!  He 
found himself at the surface of the sea, flailing and spitting, 
but <breathing>, by god!

A breaking wave dashed his momentary elation, but he clawed his 
head above water again and took another breath.  After this 
happened two or three times he discovered that he fared better 
faced away from the wind-whipped froth and struck out swimming in 
that direction.  Shortly his arm struck something large and very 
hard: a smooth, endlessly long pole, probably a ship's spar.  He 
encircled it with both arms and held on desperately as the storm 
sought to destroy him.

Time passed interminably.  Hours later a gray light stealing over 
the world roused him from numbness.  To his amazement, he was 
still alive.  The sea was calming because the storm was past.  
Soon the sun rose above the horizon into a sky cloudless except 
for a dark mass high in the west, the retreating storm.  It 
promised a lovely day for those more fortunate than he.

But he too was fortunate, he suddenly realized, finally 
registering what his ears had been telling him for some time.  The 
boom of surf!  On the crest of the next wave he looked wildly 
around and espied a dark island behind him hardly 200 yards across 
white froth.

* * *

Though weak and exhausted, he wasted no time in pulling himself 
erect and staggering above the strand, beyond the reach of the 
dashing water.  There he flung himself on his back and took great 
lungfulls of air. He almost fell asleep, so peaceful was this 
motionless land and cool breeze, but the very incongruity of his 
fate amused him.  From prisoner in the tiny locker to freedom in 
an infinitely larger prison!

Presumably so until further notice.  He rose first to his elbows, 
then to his feet, the better to survey his new world.  From wave 
marks above the surf, he judged the tide to be low.  Despite that, 
the sandy beach was relatively narrow.  A jungle began hardly 
fifty yards from the water. Tilting his head back, he understood 
the reason for the narrow beach.  The land, clothed in palms and 
broad-leafed tropical vegetation, rose quickly in a slope he 
thought as much as forty degrees to a hill high enough to shade 
this beach in early afternoon.

He saw shells above the high-water mark and here and there the 
parallel tracks of crabs and the trident tracks of birds, but no 
human footprints except his own.  The beach curved away to right 
and left.  On his left a huge cluster of rocks rose from the sea a 
half-mile offshore.  Possibly the Fleeting Star had struck a 
submerged member of that collection.

No strange footprint, but artifacts were washing ashore even as he 
watched. He waded into the surf and picked up a sailor's striped 
shirt, thinking that if he was to survive he might need it.  Here 
and there were other articles: mostly barrels most probably of 
tea, a few boxes, a pillow from some sailor's hammock, even a 
corked bottle.  He retrieved the bottle and found a folded paper 
inside.  The handwriting was only too recognizable.

"To whom it may concern:

"Greetings.

"This message is consigned to the charity of the sea at five bells 
of the dog watch on July 2, 1848, believed at 7 S 139 W, past the 
northernmost island of the Marquesas group, the ship assailed by 
wind and wave forcible beyond previous experience, having lost 
mizzen and midtop before darkness fell, pumps barely keeping pace 
with the flood, with 104 souls on board.

"Harvey G. Norris, Master, Fleeting Star, out of Canton bound for 
New York

"May God have mercy on our souls."

Jake stood quietly with the paper in his hand.  Curious message!  
He was certain that the dog watch was long behind them when the 
ship crashed on the rock.  Then he decided, not so curious: 
obviously the bottle would drift before the storm alongside the 
crippled ship.

Was he the only survivor?  He shaded his eyes and looked farther 
out to sea.   Flotsam in the shape of barrels rose into sight on 
the tops of swells as far as he could discern them.  The fatal 
rock could be miles offshore.  But <he> had made it!  The 
stormwind must have been onshore; a shoreward current might even 
be running.

Perhaps the only difference was that he had jumped into the dark 
almost immediately after the ship went on the rock.  Perhaps 
others had tried to stay with the hulk and were at last drifting 
closer.  He jumped up and down, shouted and waved his arms over 
his head, but had to give it up when no answering arm could be 
seen on the sun-sparkling water.

With a sigh and a whimsical smile, he stuffed the paper back into 
the bottle, shoved home the cork and threw the message as far as 
he could back into the surf.

* * *

A dry throat finally drove him from under his palm tree back out 
onto the beach in the dazzling noon-day sun.  The storm last night 
must surely have contained as much rain as wind.  He reasoned that 
somewhere on the island a fresh water stream, however temporary, 
must today be spilling into the sea.  Facing the surf he turned 
right and set out to round the island, trying to count his paces 
as he strolled.  His clothing, a tattered sleeveless undershirt 
and side-striped trousers that remained from his mate's uniform, 
was long since dry, itching his shoulders and hips with the 
retained salt.  He walked in the wet strand of necessity because 
the dry sand was hot enough in the sunlight to cook his bare feet.

Though he had slept off and on during the long morning, he was 
confident no one might have come ashore without him noticing.  No 
footprint had been added to those of his own.  Now the tide had 
turned and was rising.

His count of paces was approaching 200 when he crossed a spit of 
sand, rounding a boulder large as a house, and saw the white 
lifeboat stranded hardly a hundred yards further down the beach.  
He lifted on his toes into a jog, dashing spray from the puddles 
left by the strongest waves, and quickly reached the boat.

It was 20 feet of white-painted wooden hull, one of four normally 
born inverted on the main deck, covered with canvas still laced to 
the gunwales.  With a sigh of disappointment he decided that this 
one had simply come loose from its restraints during the storm to 
wash up here and be stranded at low tide, as had the other flotsam 
still lying about.

Ah, but a lifeboat contained emergency provisions!  He turned to 
the bow, where to his surprise he found the laces already 
loosened, leaving an edge of the canvas free to flap in the wind.  
Thirst drove him to ignore this anomaly.

Yes!  Just beneath the raised flap in the bow thwarts was the 
provision locker.  Leaning into the boat, he worked the sliding 
catch forcefully, opened the cover and smiled hugely as he held up 
a corked gallon jug of clear water.

The cork was jammed tight, but reaching farther into the locker he 
located the corkscrew as expected.  The plug was soon extracted.  
One second later the sweetest water he had ever tasted was washing 
down his throat, albeit likely it had been moldering in that same 
jug for the two years since Fleeting Star's initial voyage.

Much refreshed, he lowered the jug to the canvas cover and wiped 
his mouth with the back of his hand.  Life was looking up!  If 
this proved to be one of the two boats with centerboard, stepped 
mast and mainsheet, he could very shortly --

 From close behind him a female voice said clearly, "We couldn't 
get it open."
