What
can
Top
be
barking
in
that
way
for
?
"
asked
Pencroft
.
"
And
Jup
be
growling
like
that
?
"
added
Herbert
.
In
fact
the
orang
,
joining
the
dog
,
gave
unequivocal
signs
of
agitation
,
and
,
singular
to
say
,
the
two
animals
appeared
more
uneasy
than
angry
.
"
It
is
evident
,
"
said
Gideon
Spilett
,
"
that
this
well
is
in
direct
communication
with
the
sea
,
and
that
some
marine
animal
comes
from
time
to
time
to
breathe
at
the
bottom
.
"
"
That
's
evident
,
"
replied
the
sailor
,
"
and
there
can
be
no
other
explanation
to
give
.
Quiet
there
,
Top
!
"
added
Pencroft
,
turning
to
the
dog
,
"
and
you
,
Jup
,
be
off
to
your
room
!
"
The
ape
and
the
dog
were
silent
.
Jup
went
off
to
bed
,
but
Top
remained
in
the
room
,
and
continued
to
utter
low
growls
at
intervals
during
the
rest
of
the
evening
.
There
was
no
further
talk
on
the
subject
,
but
the
incident
,
however
,
clouded
the
brow
of
the
engineer
.
During
the
remainder
of
the
month
of
July
there
was
alternate
rain
and
frost
.
The
temperature
was
not
so
low
as
during
the
preceding
winter
,
and
its
maximum
did
not
exceed
eight
degrees
Fahrenheit
.
But
although
this
winter
was
less
cold
,
it
was
more
troubled
by
storms
and
squalls
;
the
sea
besides
often
endangered
the
safety
of
the
Chimneys
.
At
times
it
almost
seemed
as
if
an
under-current
raised
these
monstrous
billows
which
thundered
against
the
wall
of
Granite
House
.
When
the
settlers
,
leaning
from
their
windows
,
gazed
on
the
huge
watery
masses
breaking
beneath
their
eyes
,
they
could
not
but
admire
the
magnificent
spectacle
of
the
ocean
in
its
impotent
fury
.
The
waves
rebounded
in
dazzling
foam
,
the
beach
entirely
disapppearing
under
the
raging
flood
,
and
the
cliff
appearing
to
emerge
from
the
sea
itself
,
the
spray
rising
to
a
height
of
more
than
a
hundred
feet
.
During
these
storms
it
was
difficult
and
even
dangerous
to
venture
out
,
owing
to
the
frequently
falling
trees
;
however
,
the
colonists
never
allowed
a
week
to
pass
without
having
paid
a
visit
to
the
corral
.
Happily
,
this
enclosure
,
sheltered
by
the
southeastern
spur
of
Mount
Franklin
,
did
not
greatly
suffer
from
the
violence
of
the
hurricanes
,
which
spared
its
trees
,
sheds
,
and
palisades
;
but
the
poultry-yard
on
Prospect
Heights
,
being
directly
exposed
to
the
gusts
of
wind
from
the
east
,
suffered
considerable
damage
.
The
pigeon-house
was
twice
unroofed
and
the
paling
blown
down
.
All
this
required
to
be
remade
more
solidly
than
before
,
for
,
as
may
be
clearly
seen
,
Lincoln
Island
was
situated
in
one
of
the
most
dangerous
parts
of
the
Pacific
.
It
really
appeared
as
if
it
formed
the
central
point
of
vast
cyclones
,
which
beat
it
perpetually
as
the
whip
does
the
top
,
only
here
it
was
the
top
which
was
motionless
and
the
whip
which
moved
.
During
the
first
week
of
the
month
of
August
the
weather
became
more
moderate
,
and
the
atmosphere
recovered
the
calm
which
it
appeared
to
have
lost
forever
.
With
the
calm
the
cold
again
became
intense
,
and
the
thermometer
fell
to
eight
degrees
Fahrenheit
,
below
zero
.
