The
stop-cocks
were
opened
,
the
reservoirs
filled
,
and
the
"
Nautilus
,
"
slowly
sinking
,
disappeared
beneath
the
surface
of
the
lake
.
But
the
colonists
were
yet
able
to
follow
its
descent
through
the
waves
.
The
powerful
light
it
gave
forth
lighted
up
the
translucent
water
,
while
the
cavern
became
gradually
obscure
.
At
length
this
vast
effusion
of
electric
light
faded
away
,
and
soon
after
the
"
Nautilus
,
"
now
the
tomb
of
Captain
Nemo
,
reposed
in
its
ocean
bed
.
At
break
of
day
the
colonists
regained
in
silence
the
entrance
of
the
cavern
,
to
which
they
gave
the
name
of
"
Dakkar
Grotto
,
"
in
memory
of
Captain
Nemo
.
It
was
now
low-water
,
and
they
passed
without
difficulty
under
the
arcade
,
washed
on
the
right
by
the
sea
.
The
canoe
was
left
here
,
carefully
protected
from
the
waves
.
As
additional
precaution
,
Pencroft
,
Neb
,
and
Ayrton
drew
it
up
on
a
little
beach
which
bordered
one
of
the
sides
of
the
grotto
,
in
a
spot
where
it
could
run
no
risk
of
harm
.
The
storm
had
ceased
during
the
night
.
The
last
low
mutterings
of
the
thunder
died
away
in
the
west
.
Rain
fell
no
longer
,
but
the
sky
was
yet
obscured
by
clouds
.
On
the
whole
,
this
month
of
October
,
the
first
of
the
southern
spring
,
was
not
ushered
in
by
satisfactory
tokens
,
and
the
wind
had
a
tendency
to
shift
from
one
point
of
the
compass
to
another
,
which
rendered
it
impossible
to
count
upon
settled
weather
.
Cyrus
Harding
and
his
companions
,
on
leaving
Dakkar
Grotto
,
had
taken
the
road
to
the
corral
.
On
their
way
Neb
and
Herbert
were
careful
to
preserve
the
wire
which
had
been
laid
down
by
the
captain
between
the
corral
and
the
grotto
,
and
which
might
at
a
future
time
be
of
service
.
The
colonists
spoke
but
little
on
the
road
.
The
various
incidents
of
the
night
of
October
15th
had
left
a
profound
impression
on
their
minds
.
The
unknown
being
whose
influence
had
so
effectually
protected
them
,
the
man
whom
their
imagination
had
endowed
with
supernatural
powers
,
Captain
Nemo
,
was
no
more
.
His
"
Nautilus
"
and
he
were
buried
in
the
depths
of
the
abyss
.
To
each
one
of
them
their
existence
seemed
even
more
isolated
than
before
.
They
had
been
accustomed
to
count
upon
the
intervention
of
that
power
which
existed
no
longer
,
and
Gideon
Spilett
,
and
even
Cyrus
Harding
,
could
not
escape
this
impression
.
Thus
they
maintained
a
profound
silence
during
their
journey
to
the
corral
.
Towards
nine
in
the
morning
the
colonists
arrived
at
Granite
House
.
It
had
been
agreed
that
the
construction
of
the
vessel
should
be
actively
pushed
forward
,
and
Cyrus
Harding
more
than
ever
devoted
his
time
and
labor
to
this
object
.
It
was
impossible
to
divine
what
future
lay
before
them
.
Evidently
the
advantage
to
the
colonists
would
be
great
of
having
at
their
disposal
a
substantial
vessel
,
capable
of
keeping
the
sea
even
in
heavy
weather
,
and
large
enough
to
attempt
,
in
case
of
need
,
a
voyage
of
some
duration
.
Even
if
,
when
their
vessel
should
be
completed
,
the
colonists
should
not
resolve
to
leave
Lincoln
Island
as
yet
,
in
order
to
gain
either
one
of
the
Polynesian
Archipelagoes
of
the
Pacific
or
the
shores
of
New
Zealand
,
they
might
at
least
,
sooner
or
later
,
proceed
to
Tabor
Island
,
to
leave
there
the
notice
relating
to
Ayrton
.
This
was
a
precaution
rendered
indispensable
by
the
possibility
of
the
Scotch
yacht
reappearing
in
those
seas
,
and
it
was
of
the
highest
importance
that
nothing
should
be
neglected
on
this
point
.
