Small Jones told then him as he carried his bag with him and his father shookhis head as his son left ,he never saw Small Jones again .He hope he would never see him. Small Jones was not a bad kid just misunderstood is all .

' Remember me .'

' I'm trying to forget,your my son,' he then told him as he then left but he knew he would be missing him because once Small Jones was gone his father would be alone .But for the moment he enjoyed the quiet and he looked around,now where to move that couch he was sitting on .

Small Jones was not then  looking for his first ship he would Captain but it was a little known ship called the Nut Bread  ,he loved it there at least until another piaret by the name of Tam Smith  came aboard and started throwing his weight around .

He left then the Nut Bread  put out by not then being able to serve on it then he just walked around no faith in himself until he stopped in a church, the Red Light District Church , there he slept for the night as people thought he was a rug and step on him .Small Jomes then  started to believe in faith and as he wandered around more he found his ship,he wasn't Captain at first he had to earn that, but now he was serving as deckhand and scrubbing .Looking around he knew what he had to do now and he would .

He swore he would be Captain one day  .And he did in time .And no one question Small Jones again . Except the parrot of course . Tje parrot knew and told Jones he better treat him right unless he would tell others about his secret he knew .
