Excerpt from Jack Harkaway in Greece "Welcome to Magic Island!" Jack Harkavvay and his party had at last arrived at the treasure island in the Grecian Archipelago, conducted thither by Spirillo, the ex-pirate. As their ship sailed into the beautiful creek, Hark-away's son, young Jack, sang out: "Welcome to Magic Island!" Magic Island. It was happily named by young Jack. "If that is Magic Island, " cried little Emily, his sweetheart, the daughter of Dick Harvey, his father's oldest friend, "this I will christen Fairy Creek." "Hurrah I bravo, Emily!" cried Jack. This was not less happy than young Jack's name, and it was as generally adopted. A consultation was held upon deck between Jack Harkaway, his old friend, Dick Harvey, the two Americans, Mr. Jefferson and Magog Brand, Spirillo, the ex-pirate, the two detectives, Nabley and Pike, and lastly, Isaac Mole, the old tutor.
