"
But
suppose
the
convicts
pay
her
another
visit
,
"
said
Herbert
.
"
Well
,
my
boy
,
"
replied
Pencroft
,
"
not
finding
her
here
,
they
would
not
be
long
in
finding
her
on
the
sands
of
Granite
House
,
and
,
during
our
absence
,
nothing
could
hinder
them
from
seizing
her
!
I
agree
,
therefore
,
with
Mr.
Spilett
,
that
she
must
be
left
in
Port
Balloon
.
But
,
if
on
our
return
we
have
not
rid
the
island
of
those
rascals
,
it
will
be
prudent
to
bring
our
boat
to
Granite
House
,
until
the
time
when
we
need
not
fear
any
unpleasant
visits
.
"
"
That
's
settled
.
Let
us
be
off
,
"
said
the
reporter
.
Pencroft
,
Herbert
,
and
Gideon
Spilett
,
on
their
return
to
Granite
House
,
told
the
engineer
all
that
had
passed
,
and
the
latter
approved
of
their
arrangements
both
for
the
present
and
the
future
.
He
also
promised
the
sailor
that
he
would
study
that
part
of
the
channel
situated
between
the
islet
and
the
coast
,
so
as
to
ascertain
if
it
would
not
be
possible
to
make
an
artificial
harbor
there
by
means
of
dams
.
In
this
way
,
the
"
Bonadventure
"
would
be
always
within
reach
,
under
the
eyes
of
the
colonists
,
and
if
necessary
,
under
lock
and
key
.
That
evening
a
telegram
was
sent
to
Ayrton
,
requesting
him
to
bring
from
the
corral
a
couple
of
goats
,
which
Neb
wished
to
acclimatize
to
the
plateau
.
Singularly
enough
,
Ayrton
did
not
acknowledge
the
receipt
of
the
despatch
,
as
he
was
accustomed
to
do
.
This
could
not
but
astonish
the
engineer
.
But
it
might
be
that
Ayrton
was
not
at
that
moment
in
the
corral
,
or
even
that
he
was
on
his
way
back
to
Granite
House
.
In
fact
,
two
days
had
already
passed
since
his
departure
,
and
it
had
been
decided
that
on
the
evening
of
the
10th
or
at
the
latest
the
morning
of
the
11th
,
he
should
return
.
The
colonists
waited
,
therefore
,
for
Ayrton
to
appear
on
Prospect
Heights
.
Neb
and
Herbert
even
watched
at
the
bridge
so
as
to
be
ready
to
lower
it
the
moment
their
companion
presented
himself
.
But
up
to
ten
in
the
evening
,
there
were
no
signs
of
Ayrton
.
It
was
,
therefore
,
judged
best
to
send
a
fresh
despatch
,
requiring
an
immediate
reply
.
The
bell
of
the
telegraph
at
Granite
House
remained
mute
.
The
colonists
'
uneasiness
was
great
.
What
had
happened
?
Was
Ayrton
no
longer
at
the
corral
,
or
if
he
was
still
there
,
had
he
no
longer
control
over
his
movements
?
Could
they
go
to
the
corral
in
this
dark
night
?
They
consulted
.
Some
wished
to
go
,
the
others
to
remain
.
