 30 1,7|          he. ~"No," replied Gideon Spilett, listening again, "I thought
 31 1,7|             Pencroft, Herbert, and Spilett entered after him. ~An armful
 32 1,7|    clothing, Pencroft, Herbert and Spilett suffered cruelly, but not

 35 1,8|           master was dead. ~Gideon Spilett at last rose, after a long
 36 1,8| handkerchief was enough for Gideon Spilett, who only wished to wet
 37 1,8|         tide." ~"Go on, Neb," said Spilett. ~"I went half crazy when
 38 1,8|        clear in reality," observed Spilett, "but it is not credible!" ~
 39 1,8|         him. He recognized Neb and Spilett, then his other two companions,
 40 1,8|     returned to Cyrus Harding whom Spilett had not left. ~The engineer
 41 1,8|            set out. And now speak, Spilett." ~The reporter then told

 44 1,8|          upon it just now, my dear Spilett, we will talk about it by-and-by." ~
 45 1,9|             In a few words, Gideon Spilett, Herbert, and Neb were made
 46 1,9|            to procure fire. Gideon Spilett repeated, for the twentieth
 47 1,9|          country?" ~"Yes," replied Spilett, "a mountain which must

 49 1,9|               The seaman looked at Spilett in a way which seemed to
 50 1,9|           continent," asked Gideon Spilett, "whereabouts do you think,
 51 1,0|      Pencroft. ~"The sun!" ~Gideon Spilett was quite right in his reply.
 52 1,0|            cried,-~"Note that, Mr. Spilett, note that down on your

 56 1,1|          Herbert, Pencroft, Gideon Spilett, and Neb quitted the encampment.
 57 1,1|         question was put by Gideon Spilett in these terms: ~"About

 60 1,1|          angles and points. Gideon Spilett would write them down, and
 61 1,1|          They are inscribed," said Spilett. ~"There is only the point
 62 1,1|      stupid!" ~"Why?" asked Gideon Spilett, who had closed his notebook
 63 1,2|          the hour. ~That of Gideon Spilett had been preserved from

 69 1,2|            Faith, that's true, Mr. Spilett," replied the sailor, "and

165 2,8|         was all unpicked by Gideon Spilett and Herbert, for Pencroft
166 2,8|        actually swarmed there, and Spilett and Herbert were too good

174 2,0|            work. ~During this time Spilett and Herbert hunted in the
175 2,0|          rays to penetrate. Gideon Spilett was at first surprised at

180 2,0|        island. ~Herbert and Gideon Spilett, who were just about to
181 2,0|       quarters, then?" said Gideon Spilett directly. ~"Oh, Mr. Spilett,
182 2,0|        Spilett directly. ~"Oh, Mr. Spilett, that doesn't prove anything!"
183 2,0|            flinch, not even Gideon Spilett, who, as the sailor said,
184 2,0|          It was the hand of Gideon Spilett, who said,-~"One moment,
185 2,0|         dessert." ~"Thank you, Mr. Spilett," replied the sailor, "I
186 2,0|           No, Pencroft, it was Mr. Spilett." ~"Mr. Spilett!" exclaimed
187 2,0|            was Mr. Spilett." ~"Mr. Spilett!" exclaimed the sailor,
188 2,0|       before. ~"Oh Pencroft," said Spilett, recovering his breath at
189 2,1|           rest of mankind. ~Gideon Spilett had already several times
190 2,1|      thought he could tame it; but Spilett explained to him that they

197 2,1|           is evident," said Gideon Spilett, "that this well is in direct
198 2,1|            birds. ~Not only Gideon Spilett and Herbert, but Pencroft
199 2,2|           It will be you then, Mr. Spilett, who will help me?" ~"To

216 2,3|         within gunshot, and Gideon Spilett wondered if it was to one
217 2,3|            Island. ~Neither Gideon Spilett, Herbert, nor Pencroft slept
