This
spot
was
raised
from
fifty
to
sixty
feet
above
the
level
of
the
sea
.
The
view
was
very
extensive
,
but
beyond
the
cape
it
ended
in
Union
Bay
.
Neither
the
islet
nor
Prospect
Heights
was
visible
,
and
could
not
be
from
thence
,
for
the
rising
ground
and
the
curtain
of
trees
closed
the
northern
horizon
.
It
is
useless
to
add
that
notwithstanding
the
wide
extent
of
sea
which
the
explorers
could
survey
,
and
though
the
engineer
swept
the
horizon
with
his
glass
,
no
vessel
could
be
found
.
The
shore
was
of
course
examined
with
the
same
care
from
the
edge
of
the
water
to
the
cliff
,
and
nothing
could
be
discovered
even
with
the
aid
of
the
instrument
.
"
Well
,
"
said
Gideon
Spilett
,
"
it
seems
we
must
make
up
our
minds
to
console
ourselves
with
thinking
that
no
one
will
come
to
dispute
with
us
the
possession
of
Lincoln
Island
!
"
"
But
the
bullet
,
"
cried
Herbert
.
"
That
was
not
imaginary
,
I
suppose
!
"
"
Hang
it
,
no
!
"
exclaimed
Pencroft
,
thinking
of
his
absent
tooth
.
"
Then
what
conclusion
may
be
drawn
?
"
asked
the
reporter
.
"
This
,
"
replied
the
engineer
,
"
that
three
months
or
more
ago
,
a
vessel
,
either
voluntarily
or
not
,
came
here
.
"
"
What
!
then
you
admit
,
Cyrus
,
that
she
was
swallowed
up
without
leaving
any
trace
?
"
cried
the
reporter
.
"
No
,
my
dear
Spilett
;
but
you
see
that
if
it
is
certain
that
a
human
being
set
foot
on
the
island
,
it
appears
no
less
certain
that
he
has
now
left
it
.
