Brian Vriends: Cannibal Jack McGonnigal

Quotes 

• David Grief : Why didn't you say why you stowed away before we went back to Tonga?

  Cannibal Jack McGonnigal : I was ashamed. I dishonored my brother and my father. I hoped Chief Haro would forgive me if a white man was present.

  David Grief : What do you expect to do now?

  Cannibal Jack McGonnigal : Chief Haro said I belong to you now. I'll do whatever you wish.

  Mauriri Lepau : Where did you learn your English?

  Cannibal Jack McGonnigal : In the school Chief Haro allowed the missionaries to build.

  David Grief : And did he teach you to disobey your chief?

  Cannibal Jack McGonnigal : I was raised to be obedient to my father and to my chief, but I would never marry a man I don't love. Have you never defied what was expected of you?

  David Grief : [to Mauriri, as Tahura walks to the other side of the schooner]  Not a word.

  [Mauriri grins broadly]
