Pencroft
,
Spilett
,
and
Herbert
,
forming
more
or
less
probable
conjectures
,
dined
rapidly
on
board
the
"
Bonadventure
"
so
as
to
be
able
to
continue
their
excursion
until
nightfall
.
This
was
done
at
five
o'clock
in
the
evening
,
at
which
hour
they
entered
the
wood
.
Numerous
animals
fled
at
their
approach
,
being
principally
,
one
might
say
,
only
goats
and
pigs
,
which
were
obviously
European
species
.
Doubtless
some
whaler
had
landed
them
on
the
island
,
where
they
had
rapidly
increased
.
Herbert
resolved
to
catch
one
or
two
living
,
and
take
them
back
to
Lincoln
Island
.
It
was
no
longer
doubtful
that
men
at
some
period
or
other
had
visited
this
islet
,
and
this
became
still
more
evident
when
paths
appeared
trodden
through
the
forest
,
felled
trees
,
and
everywhere
traces
of
the
hand
of
man
;
but
the
trees
were
becoming
rotten
,
and
had
been
felled
many
years
ago
;
the
marks
of
the
axe
were
velveted
with
moss
,
and
the
grass
grew
long
and
thick
on
the
paths
,
so
that
it
was
difficult
to
find
them
.
"
But
,
"
observed
Gideon
Spilett
,
"
this
not
only
proves
that
men
have
landed
on
the
island
,
but
also
that
they
lived
on
it
for
some
time
.
Now
,
who
were
these
men
?
How
many
of
them
remain
?
"
"
The
document
,
"
said
Herbert
,
"
only
spoke
of
one
castaway
.
"
"
Well
,
if
he
is
still
on
the
island
,
"
replied
Pencroft
,
"
it
is
impossible
but
that
we
shall
find
him
.
"
The
exploration
was
continued
.
The
sailor
and
his
companions
naturally
followed
the
route
which
cut
diagonally
across
the
island
,
and
they
were
thus
obliged
to
follow
the
stream
which
flowed
towards
the
sea
.
If
the
animals
of
European
origin
,
if
works
due
to
a
human
hand
,
showed
incontestably
that
men
had
already
visited
the
island
,
several
specimens
of
the
vegetable
kingdom
did
not
prove
it
less
.
In
some
places
,
in
the
midst
of
clearings
,
it
was
evident
that
the
soil
had
been
planted
with
culinary
plants
,
at
probably
the
same
distant
period
.
What
,
then
,
was
Herbert
's
joy
,
when
he
recognized
potatoes
,
chicory
,
sorrel
,
carrots
,
cabbages
,
and
turnips
,
of
which
it
was
sufficient
to
collect
the
seed
to
enrich
the
soil
of
Lincoln
Island
.
