Answer:
Jim felt "uneasy and alarmed" with the stranger, and admits that he "puzzled [him]".
Explanation:
Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island" revolves around the protagonist Jim Hawkins' adventures and his search for a treasure. The story is set with characters like pirates, journeys by ship, and the usual interesting story of an evil pirate and the fight to get to a buried treasure.
Jim Hawkins recalls how he first met <em>"Black Dog"</em>, the former shipmate of <em>"Captain"</em> Bill, a guest at their inn <em>"The Admiral Benbow"</em>. Jim recounts how the new guy was <em>"a pale, tallowy creature, wanting two fingers of the left hand, and though he wore a cutlass, he did not look much like a fighter." </em>He also went further to admit that <em>"... this one puzzled [him]"</em>, and the longer he was in the company of the stranger, the more <em>"uneasy and alarmed"</em> Jim became.
