It
was
the
colonists
'
history
which
he
thus
demanded
,
and
for
the
first
time
.
Perhaps
this
history
recounted
,
he
would
tell
his
own
.
In
a
few
words
Harding
related
all
that
had
happened
since
their
departure
from
Richmond
;
how
they
had
managed
,
and
what
resources
they
now
had
at
their
disposal
.
The
stranger
listened
with
extreme
attention
.

Then
the
engineer
told
who
they
all
were
,
Gideon
Spilett
,
Herbert
,
Pencroft
,
Neb
,
himself
,
and
,
he
added
,
that
the
greatest
happiness
they
had
felt
since
their
arrival
in
Lincoln
Island
was
on
the
return
of
the
vessel
from
Tabor
Island
,
when
they
had
been
able
to
include
among
them
a
new
companion
.
At
these
words
the
stranger
's
face
flushed
,
his
head
sunk
on
his
breast
,
and
confusion
was
depicted
on
his
countenance
.
"
And
now
that
you
know
us
,
"
added
Cyrus
Harding
,
"
will
you
give
us
your
hand
?
"
"
No
,
"
replied
the
,
stranger
in
a
hoarse
voice
;
"
no
!
You
are
honest
men
!
And
I
--

These
last
words
justified
the
colonists
'
presentiment
.
There
had
been
some
mournful
past
,
perhaps
expiated
in
the
sight
of
men
,
but
from
which
his
conscience
had
not
yet
absolved
him
.
At
any
rate
the
guilty
man
felt
remorse
,
he
repented
,
and
his
new
friends
would
have
cordially
pressed
the
hand
which
they
sought
;
but
he
did
not
feel
himself
worthy
to
extend
it
to
honest
men
!
However
,
after
the
scene
with
the
jaguar
,
he
did
not
return
to
the
forest
,
and
from
that
day
did
not
go
beyond
the
enclosure
of
Granite
House
.
What
was
the
mystery
of
his
life
?
Would
the
stranger
one
day
speak
of
it
?
Time
alone
could
show
.
At
any
rate
,
it
was
agreed
that
his
secret
should
never
be
asked
from
him
,
and
that
they
would
live
with
him
as
if
they
suspected
nothing
.
For
some
days
their
life
continued
as
before
.
Cyrus
Harding
and
Gideon
Spilett
worked
together
,
sometimes
chemists
,
sometimes
experimentalists
.
The
reporter
never
left
the
engineer
except
to
hunt
with
Herbert
,
for
it
would
not
have
been
prudent
to
allow
the
lad
to
ramble
alone
in
the
forest
;
and
it
was
very
necessary
to
be
on
their
guard
.
As
to
Neb
and
Pencroft
,
one
day
at
the
stables
and
poultry-yard
,
another
at
the
corral
,
without
reckoning
work
in
Granite
House
,
they
were
never
in
want
of
employment
.
