The one that had remained in the cage was taken by Weatherby Swann. He usually went for a few drinks on Tuesday nights down at the local Tavern, anyway, down at the Tavern, he betted some of his chums he would climb up the mountain and bring back the most interesting item there. This wasn't an unusual bet for him and his friends; in fact, it was one off their most common bet that they did. He wasn't very drunk when he came out of the pub, but enough to think that kittens were attacking Tortuga, not wolves. When he stepped out of the pub, wolves surrounded him. Weatherby just patted them on the head. "Good little kittens, you're all so cute." He strolled of down the road toward the mountain. The wolves were intelligent creatures, and knew praise from scold, so they left him alone and continued destroying the village. He climbed up the mountain, not knowing that the most aggressive of the wolves was chasing a woman who had just taken a child from a cage. Finally, after searching the bottom off the mountain, he came to the ledge to find a cage holding one child. "Wow!" He exclaimed. "That sure beats this rock!" He held up smooth rock that slanted, like a ramp. He dropped the rock and opened the cage. The baby looked at him in great relief that someone had found her. The wolf chasing the woman had already passed the ledge and was almost halfway up the mountain. A rock hit the future-Governors head. "Ow!" He yelped. Slowly he climbed down the mountain, the child clutching his coat. When he got back to the pub he had the child hidden underneath his coat. "What is it this time Weatherby?" George Norrington asked, "Another slanted rock?" "No," Weatherby replied. "This." With one dramatic sweep of his arm, he withdrew the child from the underneath of his coat. "Whoa!" His friends gasped in astonishment. "You did not find that in the mountains!" George shouted. A bartender threw a cloth at him and he shrunk a little into his seat. "I did," Weatherby argued back. "Now that I've held this child, I want to settle down, get married, and raise this child as my own." He held the child high in the air and then lowered her down to his chest. "You're kidding right?" William, another friend who also goes by the name of Boot-Strap Bill, asked. "No." Weatherby replied testily, and with that, he stormed out of the Tavern.
