Pedro, a Jamaica negro who had afterwards gone to Honduras to live, and thus spoke both English, and Spanish, was one of the Hondurans to receive a year"s sentence, as his connection with the Alvarez crowd was fully established.
The yellow launch that Tom was instrumental in seizing was afterwards claimed by, and surrendered to, a boat-owner up the coast who had rented the boat to Captain Jonas French.
Tom and Joe? They are still the leading members of the Motor Boat Club.
Jed was also admitted, and is one of the most expert of the young members.
Horace Dunstan rewarded everyone who had anything to do with the liberation and protection of his son. Tom, Joe and Jed were all offered much larger rewards than any one of them could be induced to accept. Yet each of the boys, in the end, accepted a sum that provided not only a good time at once, but also for each a tidy little reserve fund in bank.
Here we will take leave of the three boys amid Nantucket surroundings.
They will be heard from again, however, at a later date, in a further volume, filled with their exciting adventures, under the t.i.tle: "The Motor Boat Club Off Long Island; Or, A Daring Marine Game at Racing Speed."
THE END.
