"
I
think
so
too
,
"
added
the
engineer
.
"
It
may
even
be
said
that
it
is
the
duty
of
a
captain
to
come
and
survey
any
land
or
island
not
yet
known
,
and
Lincoln
Island
is
in
this
position
.
"
"
Well
,
"
said
Pencroft
,
"
suppose
this
vessel
comes
and
anchors
there
a
few
cables-lengths
from
our
island
,
what
shall
we
do
?
"
This
sudden
question
remained
at
first
without
any
reply
.
But
Cyrus
Harding
,
after
some
moments
'
thought
,
replied
in
the
calm
tone
which
was
usual
to
him
,
--
"
What
we
shall
do
,
my
friends
?
What
we
ought
to
do
is
this
:
--
we
will
communicate
with
the
ship
,
we
will
take
our
passage
on
board
her
,
and
we
will
leave
our
island
,
after
having
taken
possession
of
it
in
the
name
of
the
United
States
.
Then
we
will
return
with
any
who
may
wish
to
follow
us
to
colonize
it
definitely
,
and
endow
the
American
Republic
with
a
useful
station
in
this
part
of
the
Pacific
Ocean
!
"
"
Hurrah
!
"
exclaimed
Pencroft
,
"
and
that
will
be
no
small
present
which
we
shall
make
to
our
country
!
The
colonization
is
already
almost
finished
;
names
are
given
to
every
part
of
the
island
;
there
is
a
natural
port
,
fresh
water
,
roads
,
a
telegraph
,
a
dockyard
,
and
manufactories
;
and
there
will
be
nothing
to
be
done
but
to
inscribe
Lincoln
Island
on
the
maps
!
"
"
But
if
anyone
seizes
it
in
our
absence
?
"
observed
Gideon
Spilett
.
"
Hang
it
!
"
cried
the
sailor
.
"
I
would
rather
remain
all
alone
to
guard
it
:
and
trust
to
Pencroft
,
they
should
n't
steal
it
from
him
,
like
a
watch
from
the
pocket
of
a
swell
!
"
For
an
hour
it
was
impossible
to
say
with
any
certainty
whether
the
vessel
was
or
was
not
standing
towards
Lincoln
Island
.
She
was
nearer
,
but
in
what
direction
was
she
sailing
?
This
Pencroft
could
not
determine
.
However
,
as
the
wind
was
blowing
from
the
northeast
,
in
all
probability
the
vessel
was
sailing
on
the
starboard
tack
.
Besides
,
the
wind
was
favorable
for
bringing
her
towards
the
island
,
and
,
the
sea
being
calm
,
she
would
not
be
afraid
to
approach
although
the
shallows
were
not
marked
on
the
chart
.
