During
the
first
quarter
of
an
hour
the
silence
was
only
interrupted
by
this
remark
from
Pencroft
:
--
"
We
ought
to
have
brought
a
torch
.
"
And
by
this
reply
from
the
engineer
:
--
"
We
shall
find
one
at
the
corral
.
"
Harding
and
his
companions
had
left
Granite
House
at
twelve
minutes
past
nine
.
At
forty-seven
minutes
past
nine
they
had
traversed
three
out
of
the
five
miles
which
separated
the
mouth
of
the
Mercy
from
the
corral
.
At
that
moment
sheets
of
lightning
spread
over
the
island
and
illumined
the
dark
trees
.
The
flashes
dazzled
and
almost
blinded
them
.
Evidently
the
storm
would
not
be
long
in
bursting
forth
.
The
flashes
gradually
became
brighter
and
more
rapid
.
Distant
thunder
growled
in
the
sky
.
The
atmosphere
was
stifling
.
The
colonists
proceeded
as
if
they
were
urged
onwards
by
some
irresistible
force
.
At
ten
o'clock
a
vivid
flash
showed
them
the
palisade
,
and
as
they
reached
the
gate
the
storm
burst
forth
with
tremendous
fury
.
In
a
minute
the
corral
was
crossed
,
and
Harding
stood
before
the
hut
.
