Deckwise plan on Beaucaire ship locks in fate
The narrator observes a slave ship scene aboard the Beaucaire, noting Tim the deputy sheriff and a cook as workers, while Kirby and the captain converse above. He suspects two slave women are confined in the after cabin and debates how to free them, fearing Kirby’s danger and hoping the gambler distracts with a card game.
