o'clock
Keep a good look-out , '' he added , turning to Frank , `` and do n't expose yourself too much . '' Woods and the corporal then went into the cabin , and Frank was left to himself . A feeling of loneliness he had never before experienced came over him . At first he determined to go and call his cousin to come and stand watch with him , so that he would have some one to talk with ; but , on second thought , he remembered that Archie was to come on watch at two o'clock , and probably would not like to be disturbed . Besides , if he called him , it would look as though he was a coward , and afraid to stand his watch alone ; so he gave up the idea , and remained in his place of concealment . Once he thought he discovered the sheen of a musket among the bushes ; but it was only his imagination , and after waiting half an hour without hearing any thing suspicious , he shouldered his gun , and commenced pacing the deck , in full view of the woods . But he was not molested , and when two o'clock came he saw a figure steal cautiously out of the cabin , and creep along toward him , under cover of the wheel-house .
