"
We
were
just
discussing
poor
Paul
's
fate
,
"
said
Captain
Dufranne
.
"
Miss
Porter
insists
that
we
have
no
absolute
proof
of
his
death
--
nor
have
we
.
And
on
the
other
hand
she
maintains
that
the
continued
absence
of
your
omnipotent
jungle
friend
indicates
that
D'Arnot
is
still
in
need
of
his
services
,
either
because
he
is
wounded
,
or
still
is
a
prisoner
in
a
more
distant
native
village
.
"
"
It
has
been
suggested
,
"
ventured
Lieutenant
Charpentier
,
"
that
the
wild
man
may
have
been
a
member
of
the
tribe
of
blacks
who
attacked
our
party
--
that
he
was
hastening
to
aid
THEM
--
his
own
people
.
"
Jane
shot
a
quick
glance
at
Clayton

"
It
seems
vastly
more
reasonable
,
"
said
Professor
Porter
.
"
I
do
not
agree
with
you
,
"
objected
Mr.
Philander
.
"
He
had
ample
opportunity
to
harm
us
himself
,
or
to
lead
his
people
against
us
.
Instead
,
during
our
long
residence
here
,
he
has
been
uniformly
consistent
in
his
role
of
protector
and
provider
.
"
"
That
is
true
,
"
interjected
Clayton
,
"
yet
we
must
not
overlook
the
fact
that
except
for
himself
the
only
human
beings
within
hundreds
of
miles
are
savage
cannibals
.
He
was
armed
precisely
as
are
they
,
which
indicates
that
he
has
maintained
relations
of
some
nature
with
them
,
and
the
fact
that
he
is
but
one
against
possibly
thousands
suggests
that
these
relations
could
scarcely
have
been
other
than
friendly
.

"
It
seems
improbable
then
that
he
is
not
connected
with
them
,
"
remarked
the
captain
;
"
possibly
a
member
of
this
tribe
.
"
"
Otherwise
,
"
added
another
of
the
officers
,
"
how
could
he
have
lived
a
sufficient
length
of
time
among
the
savage
denizens
of
the
jungle
,
brute
and
human
,
to
have
become
proficient
in
woodcraft
,
or
in
the
use
of
African
weapons
.
"
"
You
are
judging
him
according
to
your
own
standards
,
gentlemen
,
"
said
Jane
.
"
An
ordinary
white
man
such
as
any
of
you
--
pardon
me
,
I
did
not
mean
just
that
--
rather
,
a
white
man
above
the
ordinary
in
physique
and
intelligence
could
never
,
I
grant
you
,
have
lived
a
year
alone
and
naked
in
this
tropical
jungle
;
but
this
man
not
only
surpasses
the
average
white
man
in
strength
and
agility
,
but
as
far
transcends
our
trained
athletes
and
'
strong
men
'
as
they
surpass
a
day-old
babe
;
and
his
courage
and
ferocity
in
battle
are
those
of
the
wild
beast
.
