"The Pirate's Treasure" -- Mr. Morris sends Billy out to discover the truth behind the strange murder of a poor sailor, and Billy finds himself shanghaied aboard the pirate ship "Sea Witch", heading for an isolated island where the Captain of the ship seeks the sunken treasure of Tamungu just offshore.
