"
Speculation
is
futile
,
"
said
Professor
Porter
sadly
.
"
The
chest
is
gone
.
We
shall
never
see
it
again
,
nor
the
treasure
that
was
in
it
.
"
Only
Jane
knew
what
the
loss
meant
to
her
father
,
and
none
there
knew
what
it
meant
to
her
.
Six
days
later
Captain
Dufranne
announced
that
they
would
sail
early
on
the
morrow
.
Jane
would
have
begged
for
a
further
reprieve
,
had
it
not
been
that
she
too
had
begun
to
believe
that
her
forest
lover
would
return
no
more
.
In
spite
of
herself
she
began
to
entertain
doubts
and
fears
.
The
reasonableness
of
the
arguments
of
these
disinterested
French
officers
commenced
to
convince
her
against
her
will
.
That
he
was
a
cannibal
she
would
not
believe
,
but
that
he
was
an
adopted
member
of
some
savage
tribe
at
length
seemed
possible
to
her
.
She
would
not
admit
that
he
could
be
dead
.
It
was
impossible
to
believe
that
that
perfect
body
,
so
filled
with
triumphant
life
,
could
ever
cease
to
harbor
the
vital
spark
--
as
soon
believe
that
immortality
were
dust
As
Jane
permitted
herself
to
harbor
these
thoughts
,
others
equally
unwelcome
forced
themselves
upon
her
.
If
he
belonged
to
some
savage
tribe
he
had
a
savage
wife
--
a
dozen
of
them
perhaps
--
and
wild
,
half-caste
children
.
The
girl
shuddered
,
and
when
they
told
her
that
the
cruiser
would
sail
on
the
morrow
she
was
almost
glad
.
It
was
she
,
though
,
who
suggested
that
arms
,
ammunition
,
supplies
and
comforts
be
left
behind
in
the
cabin
,
ostensibly
for
that
intangible
personality
who
had
signed
himself
Tarzan
of
the
Apes
,
and
for
D'Arnot
should
he
still
be
living
,
but
really
,
she
hoped
,
for
her
forest
god
--
even
though
his
feet
should
prove
of
clay
.
