When we had done this，we came back to our Castle，and there I fell to work for my Man Friday；and first of all，I gave him a pair of Linnen Drawers，which I had out of the poor Gunners Chest I mention'd，and which I found in the Wreck；and which with a little Alteration fitted him very well；then I made him a Jerkin of Goat's-skin，as well as my Skill would allow；and I was now grown a tollerable good Taylor；and I gave him a Cap，which I had made of a Hare-skin，very convenient，and fashionable enough；and thus he was cloath'd for the present，tollerably well；and was mighty well pleas'd to see himself almost as well cloath'd as his Master：It is true，he went awkardly in these Things at first；wearing the Drawers was very awkard to him，and the Sleeves of the Wastcoat gall'd his Shoulders，and the inside of his Arms；but a little easing them where he com plain'd they hurt him，and using himself to them，at length he took to them very well.
The next Day after I came home to my Hutch with him，I began to consider where I should lodge him，and that I might do well for him，and yet be perfectly easy my self；I made a little Tent for him in the vacant Place between my two Fortifications，in the inside of the last，and in the outside of the first；and as there was a Door，or Entrance there into my Cave，I made a formal fram'd Door Case，and a Door to it of Boards，and set it up in the Passage，a little within the Entrance；and causing the Door to open on the inside，I barr'd it up in the Night，taking in my Ladders too；so that Friday could no way come at me in the inside of my innermost Wall，without making so much Noise in getting over，that it must needs waken me；for my first Wall had now a compleat Roof over it of long Poles，covering all my Tent，and leaning up to the side of the Hill，which was again laid cross with smaller Sticks instead of Laths，and then thatch'd over a great Thickness，with the Rice Straw，which was strong like Reeds；and at the Hole or Place which was left to go in or out by the Ladder，I had plac'd a kind of Trap-door，which if it had been attempted on the outside，would not have open'd at all，but would have fallen down，and made a great Noise；and as to Weapons，I took them all to my Side every Night.
