WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.840 --> 00:00:06.160 Have you shaken that spring cold? Yet wondering if you 2 00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:08.400 will get a new Easter bonnet this year? 3 00:00:09.759 --> 00:00:12.160 I want to get away from it all. We offer 4 00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:19.039 you escape. 5 00:00:22.640 --> 00:00:25.280 You will aboard a Chinese junk on the ground off 6 00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:28.440 the coast of Borneo, and paddling towards you are the 7 00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:32.520 canoes of the deadly dyak headhunters. Your powder is wet, 8 00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:41.640 your throat is dry, because for you there is no escape. 9 00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:51.399 Escape produced and directed by William M. Robson, and designed 10 00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:53.920 to free you from the four walls of today for 11 00:00:54.039 --> 00:01:02.240 a half hour of high adventures. The night we escaped 12 00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:04.640 to the Orient of one hundred and fifty years ago, 13 00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:09.319 to the Manila of seventeen ninety in Richard Matthews Hallett's 14 00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:14.879 story of a Wooden Ship and an iron Man, Misfortune's Isle. 15 00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:24.439 The water which was lying at anchor so close up 16 00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:27.000 against the jetty, I could have leaned over and spit 17 00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:30.359 on the wheels of the elegant Spanish carriages clattering along 18 00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:32.760 the promenade. 19 00:01:32.400 --> 00:01:35.599 And that's exactly what I felt like doing. I'd been 20 00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:39.280 away from Salem for three years now, three years. 21 00:01:39.000 --> 00:01:41.840 Of sailing a trader brig through the China seas and 22 00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:47.239 south into the Spice Island, all for what the whole 23 00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:51.879 thing had grown stale. Suddenly I was plainly and simply bored. 24 00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:58.159 Young Poe stood beside me there at the taffrail and 25 00:01:58.239 --> 00:02:01.319 tried to console me with the loss the feet he 26 00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:04.159 drank at his sailing junk alongside earlier in the day, 27 00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:07.079 and come aboard to renew a friendship that started two 28 00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:10.080 years before a tin scene when I hauled him out 29 00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:13.960 from under an executioner's x. He was under it because 30 00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:17.080 he just sold me six fine fat pigs without remembering 31 00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:19.199 they happened to be the sacred property of the Chin 32 00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:25.120 Scene temple. Oh Yang Poh was a real philosopher. 33 00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:24.840 All right. 34 00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:28.520 Anyway, my friend, I reserve my sympathies for the poor. 35 00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:30.919 You have gained much wealth. 36 00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:33.560 In trade ay and a few measley gold feeds. But 37 00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:35.639 the trouble is out here. A man can't go it 38 00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:37.280 on his own. He needs backing. 39 00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:40.520 What more backing could a rash man desire? And those 40 00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:42.719 eight brass cannot at the rail either. 41 00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:45.439 Fair guns all right, But at the flag I'm speaking of, 42 00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:48.680 do these unworthy eyes not see a pin there at 43 00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:51.439 the masthead? The bunning of Salem swings no weight out 44 00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:54.479 here in the south. It's the Dutch who call the urns. 45 00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:57.039 On the coast the British. And here in manilis the 46 00:02:57.159 --> 00:03:02.439 Spanish ah man had young Paul. There she comes now, 47 00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:05.599 and the second carriage there has the fourth time since 48 00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:08.000 Ion she's come fair, four. 49 00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:12.879 Fine horses and two footmen. She rides in star what she'll. 50 00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:16.400 Look up at the ship she has every time today they. 51 00:03:16.439 --> 00:03:20.639 See ah that one, the little cajured bird. 52 00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:21.599 You'll know her. 53 00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:24.039 I know of her. She is wife of Don. 54 00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:27.560 Naciso Crispo, the Spanish nobleman who is Captain on General 55 00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:31.000 of the islands of Zamboanga. He is in residence here 56 00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:36.319 in Manila. She looks very sad er why she called 57 00:03:36.319 --> 00:03:39.879 the little cage's bird. One glimpse of Don narcisso would 58 00:03:39.879 --> 00:03:42.800 answer your question better than files on words. 59 00:03:43.520 --> 00:03:46.360 She's very beautiful too, I'll swear. 60 00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:50.080 She looked back and smiled just then Captain Arad Once 61 00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:52.840 in pity, I set free a parakeet which I had 62 00:03:52.919 --> 00:03:56.439 found caught in Annette. I still bear a scar from 63 00:03:56.520 --> 00:03:56.960 its beak. 64 00:03:57.599 --> 00:03:59.479 Some things may be worth taking chances. 65 00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:03.520 For me, I find it so much simpler to go 66 00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:06.599 to sleep and dream of mad drums on the moon. Ah, 67 00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:08.000 but the moon's too far away. 68 00:04:08.719 --> 00:04:11.560 Why, oh, bear Michael on the quarterdeck. 69 00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:15.199 Then the honorable redheaded one is still your first mate? 70 00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:17.519 Hi, there he is.

And 272 00:14:04.840 --> 00:14:06.960 on the opposite side of the junk, across one hundred 273 00:14:07.039 --> 00:14:10.240 yards of sore of water, was the beach of Misfortune's aisles, 274 00:14:10.440 --> 00:14:12.639 sloping back to break sharply on the foot of the 275 00:14:12.679 --> 00:14:16.960 limestone cliffs. On the upper shoulders of those cliffs were 276 00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:21.799 the caves without fortune and edible birds nests. And between 277 00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:31.399 the cliffs and the water stood the Yupis Tree. A 278 00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:34.960 hundred legends were told about the Yupis tree, how its 279 00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:37.799 shadow could kill a man, how the spirit of a 280 00:14:37.840 --> 00:14:40.879 white goddess was prisoned in the thick, dark foliage of 281 00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:44.120 its top, and how birds that lighted on its branches 282 00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:44.919 fell dead. 283 00:14:44.840 --> 00:14:45.440 To the ground. 284 00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:48.759 Well, one thing at least was true enough. 285 00:14:49.559 --> 00:14:52.320 The Dax made a horrible poison from the juice of 286 00:14:52.399 --> 00:15:03.320 its bark, and they worshiped the tree. Young Paul took 287 00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:06.559 the renegade interpreter of jamboo with him and went ashore 288 00:15:06.639 --> 00:15:09.799 to pay his respects to Siri, and at the same 289 00:15:09.919 --> 00:15:12.399 time was to pass the word to his Chinese friends. 290 00:15:14.120 --> 00:15:16.120 It was late afternoon when he came back, and I'd 291 00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:19.200 become nearly as uneasy as Donna. See, so Young Poe 292 00:15:19.279 --> 00:15:21.960 came aboard alone and motioned me to follow him below, 293 00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:25.320 saying nothing until we were alone in my cabin. It 294 00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:29.000 is my humble opinion, Captain Urlad, that Heaven favors us 295 00:15:29.080 --> 00:15:33.240 with their side that lack our fortune.
