After following the dog a little longer, Holmes and Watson were taken to a place where they discover that men had taken a boat. Holmes also finds out that a man named Jonathan Small has hired a steam boat called Aurora, so he tells boys to find it. After some time there was no luck but Athelney Jones went back to their place of stay and told Watson that he needs help from Sherlock. Watson told him that Holmes was not there but unexpectedly, he walked in wearing a disguise as an old mariner.
Holmes explained that he used the disguise to find out where the Aurora was. When they found it, they also found Small and his companion was found shot and killed. They also found a box/chest and guessed that the treasure was in their, but they were disappointed to find out that it wasn't. Small had thrown it overboard because he didn't want anyone else to have it but him.
These chapters were very interesting and I can not wait to finish the book. Only 1 chapter left!
