When Hands wants to jump on Hawkins, the driving Hispaniola with a jolt runs aground, and Hawkins can get over it and be the first to flee into the rigging. The following hands he carried a kick into the sea. Happily escaped this danger, to Hawkins makes his way back to the log cabin where he finds horrified that this was taken by the pirates. The ship's command is gone. Hawkins is even more appalled when he finds that Silver still keeps the original treasure map in hand.

Ben Gunn had in all the time he spent on the island, made the specified location of the treasure found and rescued him and notified the doctor. So you could also just leave this to the pirates treasure map. The treasure is brought on board, and sets the Hispaniola, with Silver on board, from the home.
