The Last Cruise of the Wanderer Chapter V Encounter with Natives
In a coastal voyage, the narrator describes landing near a village, trading with civil natives, observing yam cultivation, and hunting parrots and a large iguana. A strenuous ascent to a hill yields panoramic views of islets and bays. The party notes tension with hostile natives, and a risky forest ascent where encounters with snakes and hostile watchers occur. Night watches, coral and shell gathering, and a descent back to the ship follow, ending with a disruptive snake in the cabin and turbinate shellfish alarms.
