"Well, what is it?" asked Walker,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as he laid down his banjo and felt for a match in his pocket.
It seemed as though the words roused the man to a perception that he had made a mistake. He said as much hurriedly in trade-English, and sprang up as though he would leap from the boat. Walker caught hold of his ankle.
"No,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you don't," said he, "you must have meant to visit me. This isn't Heally," and he jerked the man back into the bottom of the boat.
The man explained that he had paid a visit out of the purest friendliness.
"You're the witch doctor, I suppose," said Walker. The other replied that he was and proceeded to state that he was willing to give information about much that made white men curious. He would explain why it was of singular advantage to possess a white man's eyeball, and how very advisable it was to kill any one you caught making Itung. The danger of passing near a cotton-tree which had red earth at the roots provided a subject which no prudent man should disregard; and Tando, with his driver ants, was worth conciliating. The witch doctor was prepared to explain to Walker how to conciliate Tando. Walker replied that it was very kind of the witch doctor but Tando didn't really worry him. He was, in fact, very much more worried by an inability to understand how a native so high up the Ogowe River had learned how to speak trade-English.
The witch doctor waved the question aside and remarked that Walker must have enemies. "Pussim bad too much," he called them. "Pussim woh-woh. Berrah well! Ah send grand Krau-Krau and dem pussim die one time." Walker could not recollect for the moment any "pussim" whom he wished to die one time,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], whether from grand Krau-Krau or any other disease. "Wait a bit," he continued,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "there is one man--Dick Hatteras!" and he struck the match suddenly. The witch doctor started forward as though to put it out. Walker,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], however,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], had the door of the lantern open. He set the match to the wick of the candle and closed the door fast. The witch doctor drew back. Walker lifted the lantern and threw the light on his face. The witch doctor buried his face in his hands and supported his elbows on his knees. Immediately Walker darted forward a hand, seized the loose sleeve of the witch doctor's coat and slipped it back along his arm to the elbow. It was the sleeve of the right arm and there on the fleshy part of the forearm was the scar of a bullet.
