Directly
the
trees
were
chosen
,
they
were
felled
,
stripped
of
their
branches
,
and
sawn
into
planks
as
well
as
sawyers
would
have
been
able
to
do
it
.
A
week
after
,
in
the
recess
between
the
Chimneys
and
the
cliff
,
a
dockyard
was
prepared
,
and
a
keel
five-and-thirty
feet
long
,
furnished
with
a
stern-post
at
the
stern
and
a
stem
at
the
bows
,
lay
along
the
sand
.
Cyrus
Harding
was
not
working
in
the
dark
at
this
new
trade
.
He
knew
as
much
about
ship-building
as
about
nearly
everything
else
,
and
he
had
at
first
drawn
the
model
of
his
ship
on
paper
.
Besides
,
he
was
ably
seconded
by
Pencroft
,
who
,
having
worked
for
several
years
in
a
dockyard
in
Brooklyn
,
knew
the
practical
part
of
the
trade
.
It
was
not
until
after
careful
calculation
and
deep
thought
that
the
timbers
were
laid
on
the
keel
.
Pencroft
,
as
may
be
believed
,
was
all
eagerness
to
carry
out
his
new
enterprise
,
and
would
not
leave
his
work
for
an
instant
.
A
single
thing
had
the
honor
of
drawing
him
,
but
for
one
day
only
,
from
his
dockyard
.
This
was
the
second
wheat-harvest
,
which
was
gathered
in
on
the
15th
of
April
.
It
was
as
much
a
success
as
the
first
,
and
yielded
the
number
of
grains
which
had
been
predicted
.
"
Five
bushels
,
captain
,
"
said
Pencroft
,
alter
having
scrupulously
measured
his
treasure
.
"
Five
bushels
,
"
replied
the
engineer
;
"
and
a
hundred
and
thirty
thousand
grains
a
bushel
will
make
six
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
grains
.
"
"
Well
,
we
will
sow
them
all
this
time
,
"
said
the
sailor
,
"
except
a
little
in
reserve
.
"
"
Yes
,
Pencroft
,
and
if
the
next
crop
gives
a
proportionate
yield
,
we
shall
have
four
thousand
bushels
.
"
"
And
shall
we
eat
bread
?

We
