However
,
they
waited
till
the
first
boat
was
within
range
,
when
two
well
-
directed
balls
threw
its
crew
into
disorder
.
Then
,
Pencroft
and
Ayrton
,
abandoning
their
posts
,
under
fire
from
the
dozen
muskets
,
ran
across
the
islet
at
full
speed
,
jumped
into
their
boat
,
crossed
the
channel
at
the
moment
the
second
boat
reached
the
southern
end
,
and
ran
to
hide
themselves
in
the
Chimneys
.
They
had
scarcely
rejoined
Cyrus
Harding
and
Herbert
,
before
the
islet
was
overrun
with
pirates
in
every
direction
.
Almost
at
the
same
moment
,
fresh
reports
resounded
from
the
Mercy
station
,
to
which
the
second
boat
was
rapidly
approaching
.
Two
,
out
of
the
eight
men
who
manned
her
,
were
mortally
wounded
by
Gideon
Spilett
and
Neb
,
and
the
boat
herself
,
carried
irresistibly
onto
the
reefs
,
was
stove
in
at
the
mouth
of
the
Mercy
.
But
the
six
survivors
,
holding
their
muskets
above
their
heads
to
preserve
them
from
contact
with
the
water
,
managed
to
land
on
the
right
bank
of
the
river
.
Then
,
finding
they
were
exposed
to
the
fire
of
the
ambush
there
,
they
fled
in
the
direction
of
Flotsam
Point
,
out
of
range
of
the
balls
.
The
actual
situation
was
this
:
on
the
islet
were
a
dozen
convicts
,
of
whom
some
were
no
doubt
wounded
,
but
who
had
still
a
boat
at
their
disposal
;
on
the
island
were
six
,
but
who
could
not
by
any
possibility
reach
Granite
House
,
as
they
could
not
cross
the
river
,
all
the
bridges
being
raised
.
"
Hallo
,
"
exclaimed
Pencroft
as
he
rushed
into
the
Chimneys
,
"
hallo
,
captain
!
What
do
you
think
of
it
,
now
?
"
"
I
think
,
"
answered
the
engineer
,
"
that
the
combat
will
now
take
a
new
form
,
for
it
can
not
be
supposed
that
the
convicts
will
be
so
foolish
as
to
remain
in
a
position
so
unfavorable
for
them
!
"
"
They
wo
n't
cross
the
channel
,
"
said
the
sailor
.
"
Ayrton
and
Mr.
Spilett
's
rifles
are
there
to
prevent
them
.
You
know
that
they
carry
more
than
a
mile
!
"
"
No
doubt
,
"
replied
Herbert
;
"
but
what
can
two
rifles
do
against
the
brig
's
guns
?
"
"
Well
,
the
brig
is
n't
in
the
channel
yet
,
I
fancy
!
"
said
Pencroft
.
"
But
suppose
she
does
come
there
?
"
said
Harding
.
