Later on we walked to the next township, with Yellow Sam in front of us carrying our bags. We gave him to the inhabitants with our love, and I believe they hanged him, though the point is not of great importance. The man who had called himself Pete Cornish was more dangerous than twenty Yellow Sams, and in his case the hangman had been saved the trouble.
Who Cornish really was is a mystery, for the man talked and spoke like a gentleman. Some maintained that he was the direct descendant of a famous pirate who had ended his days in Botany Bay, after a career of unbelievable ferocity. Who knows? Whatever may be the truth, the one unforgettable picture of him that lives in my mind is just two staring light blue eyes swinging backwards and forwards and then gradually sinking to the death he had planned for us.
