The Captain's Papers Opened

At Dr. Livesey's house, Jim gives the oilskin packet to the doctor and Squire Trelawney. They open it and find a logbook of Flint's crew and a map of an island, with three red crosses and the words 'Bulk of treasure here.' The squire is ecstatic and immediately plans an expedition to find the treasure. Dr. Livesey warns him to keep the matter secret, but the squire is already talking of fitting out a ship.
