Living
?
"
asked
Herbert
.
"
Living
or
dead
.
But
if
he
is
dead
,
I
suppose
he
has
not
buried
himself
,
and
so
we
shall
at
least
find
his
remains
!
"
It
was
then
agreed
that
the
night
should
be
passed
in
the
deserted
dwelling
,
and
a
store
of
wood
found
in
a
corner
was
sufficient
to
warm
it
.
The
door
closed
,
Pencroft
,
Herbert
and
Spilett
remained
there
,
seated
on
a
bench
,
talking
little
but
wondering
much
.
They
were
in
a
frame
of
mind
to
imagine
anything
or
expect
anything
.
They
listened
eagerly
for
sounds
outside
.
The
door
might
have
opened
suddenly
,
and
a
man
presented
himself
to
them
without
their
being
in
the
least
surprised
,
notwithstanding
all
that
the
hut
revealed
of
abandonment
,
and
they
had
their
hands
ready
to
press
the
hands
of
this
man
,
this
castaway
,
this
unknown
friend
,
for
whom
friends
were
waiting
.
But
no
voice
was
heard
,
the
door
did
not
open
.
The
hours
thus
passed
away
.
How
long
the
night
appeared
to
the
sailor
and
his
companions
!
Herbert
alone
slept
for
two
hours
,
for
at
his
age
sleep
is
a
necessity
.
They
were
all
three
anxious
to
continue
their
exploration
of
the
day
before
,
and
to
search
the
most
secret
recesses
of
the
islet
!
The
inferences
deduced
by
Pencroft
were
perfectly
reasonable
,
and
it
was
nearly
certain
that
,
as
the
hut
was
deserted
,
and
the
tools
,
utensils
,
and
weapons
were
still
there
,
the
owner
had
succumbed
.
It
was
agreed
,
therefore
,
that
they
should
search
for
his
remains
,
and
give
them
at
least
Christian
burial
.
Day
dawned
;
Pencroft
and
his
companions
immediately
proceeded
to
survey
the
dwelling
.
It
had
certainly
been
built
in
a
favorable
situation
,
at
the
back
of
a
little
hill
,
sheltered
by
five
or
six
magnificent
gum-trees
.
Before
its
front
and
through
the
trees
the
axe
had
prepared
a
wide
clearing
,
which
allowed
the
view
to
extend
to
the
sea
.
Beyond
a
lawn
,
surrounded
by
a
wooden
fence
falling
to
pieces
,
was
the
shore
,
on
the
left
of
which
was
the
mouth
of
the
stream
.
The
hut
had
been
built
of
planks
,
and
it
was
easy
to
see
that
these
planks
had
been
obtained
from
the
hull
or
deck
of
a
ship
.
It
was
probable
that
a
disabled
vessel
had
been
cast
on
the
coast
of
the
island
,
that
one
at
least
of
the
crew
had
been
saved
,
and
that
by
means
of
the
wreck
this
man
,
having
tools
at
his
disposal
,
had
built
the
dwelling
.
And
this
became
still
more
evident
when
Gideon
Spilett
,
after
having
walked
around
the
hut
,
saw
on
a
plank
,
probably
one
of
those
which
had
formed
the
armor
of
the
wrecked
vessel
,
these
letters
already
half
effaced
:
BR
--
TAN
--
A
"
Britannia
,
"
exclaimed
Pencroft
,
whom
the
reporter
had
called
;
"
it
is
a
common
name
for
ships
,
and
I
could
not
say
if
she
was
English
or
American
!
"
