Chapter II: Black Dog Appears and Disappears
One January, a man arrives at the inn, asking about his friend named Billy. He means the old seaman, whom Jim still knows only as the captain. The captain is out for a walk, and when he returns, the stranger appears frightened. The captain identifies the stranger, who is missing two fingers from his hand, as Black Dog. They are old shipmates. They sit and talk, but soon quarrel, and Black Dog runs away. The captain calls for some rum. He appears to be wounded, and at that moment Dr. Livesey arrives. He says the captain has had a stroke, and treats him, telling him to stay off rum.
