How does Jason get off the beach where the sailors dumped him?

When Hawthorn awakes, he is cold and his head is bloody. Hawthorn finds his pack and goes back to sleep. In the morning, Hawthorn meets Jack, a twenty-year-old sitting by a fire. Hawthorn uses the premise of a book Jack is reading to introduce himself. The men talk. Jack offers Hawthorn breakfast in exchange for his story. Hawthorn eagerly obliges and fills up on bacon and flapjacks. Hawthorn also learns about Jack's story and how he and his group are headed to Skagway in canoes. When the group boards the canoes and prepares to leave, Jack calls out to Hawthorn and tells him to get in, that he has to catch up to his brothers.
