NOTE.—The Author of “Typee” was more than two years in the South Seas, after
escaping from the valley, as recounted in the last chapter. Some time after
returning home the foregoing narrative was published, though it was little
thought at the time that this would be the means of revealing the existence of
Toby, who had long been given up for lost. But so it proved. The story of his
escape supplies a natural sequel to the adventure, and as such it is now added
to the volume. It was related to the Author by Toby himself.
