How did Timothy know that a storm was coming? What did he do to prepare for the storm?
|
Timothy knew there was a storm coming because of signs of nature. He saw no birds in the sky, no fish by the shore, it was July, the hurricane season, and the sea "shot a rifle". To prepare, Timothy tied up the water keg, with the rope, made the hut on the highest point of the cay, and tied Phillip to the same "sturdy" tree.
