 Before you know it, the ship is being boarded by a group of finely-dressed gentlemen who are out of place amongst the rough-looking sailors and ragged passengers. The men walk around the deck, inspecting the indentured servants.

He must be satisfied, because he asks, “What’s your name, lad?” After you tell him, he says, “Welcome to Barbados. I’m William Waterford, and I’m your new master.”
