Summary.
The setting of this story is described by young Jim Hawkins. He has been asked by Squire Trelawney and Dr. Livesey to write down the story connected with their voyage to Treasure Island, from beginning to the end. The only secret had to be the location and the name of the island and that only because there is treasure not yet lifted.
Everything starts when on the scene appears Billy Bones, the brown old seaman with the sabre cut. He puts up at the Admiral Benbow Inn, which belongs to Jim's father. He is very expressive personality, he is often giving another visitors a fright, he is rude and consumes dangerous quantities of rum and sings an old sea song. "Fifteen men on the dead man's chest - Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!" Bones warns Jim to keep his weather-eye open for a seafaring man with one leg.
One evening arrives Dr. Livesey to examine Jim's father. Drunk seaman Bones is singing his favourite song and his behaviour to Dr. Livesey is very bad and rude. Finally he is reprimanded by the Doctor. A short time later appears Black Dog, a mysterious ""tallowy creature"" Then follows a brief sword duel with the Black Dog. This is the first visit to B.Bones. The next one is the visit of Blind Pew, who delivers the ""black spot"" a death summon, which was often used by pirates. Soon after Bones dies, Jim and his mother run to a nearby village. They are asking for help, but the inhabitants refuse.
