In The Cay what does Timothy tell Philip not to do?

I am not entirely sure which part of the novel you are
referring to. However, having just briefly scanned through it, the only reference to a
command that Timothy gave Philip comes in Chapter Six, when Philip is so overwhelemed by
the news of the island that Timothy can see that he falls into the water which is filled
with sharks, hungry for a meal. When Timothy leaps into the water to save Philip and
then hauls him back onto the raft, he then says to
Philip:

"Damn
fool mahn! I tol' you 'bout
d'shark!"

Timothy's anger is
evident as he tells Philip only to crawl on the raft and not to stand up. However, you
might like to think about the character of Timothy and his gentleness and kindness as he
works with Philip to get him accustomed to life on an island and all the tasks that he
needs to learn how to do. It is remarkable that he does not need to rule by commands and
orders, but rather by gentle persuasion.
