Cyrus Harding and Pencroft 358 2,6| was not wrecked on Tabor Island, but that in consequence 359 2,6| those who left him on the island may return to fetch him 360 2,6| for twelve years on Tabor Island, one may well suppose that 361 2,6| years to come from Tabor Island to Lincoln Island?" ~"That 362 2,6| Tabor Island to Lincoln Island?" ~"That is not absolutely 363 2,6| already on the coast of the island?" ~"No," answered Pencroft, " 364 2,6| latitude and longitude of Tabor Island correctly, which implied 365 2,6| than the forests of Tabor Island, and as all persuasion to 366 2,6| collected by Herbert on Tabor Island had been carefully sown. 367 2,6| abounded in other parts of the island, and there was no fear of 368 2,6| piece of bread in Lincoln Island. On this morning two or 369 2,6| the former savage of Tabor island could not be perplexed how 370 2,6| unfortunate man was on Tabor Island, he knew himself to be alone! 371 2,6| themselves on that part of the island. ~Meanwhile, Pencroft and 372 2,6| their arrival in Lincoln Island was on the return of the 373 2,6| of the vessel from Tabor Island, when they had been able 374 2,7| should leave him on some island in the Pacific, instead 375 2,7| voyage and arrived at Tabor Island. It was there that Ayrton 376 2,7| exact position of Tabor Island!" ~Ayrton passed his hand 377 2,8| exactly the situation of Tabor Island, since the events which 378 2,8| preceded his being left on the island had made it known to him." ~" 379 2,8| into the bowels of this island!" ~"Chance will perhaps 380 2,8| Spilett, that this part of the island should be subject to a surveillance 381 2,8| on the mystery of Lincoln Island, many others might happen, 382 2,8| accessories. ~The iron of Lincoln Island, as has been said, was of 383 2,8| any trace of it in Lincoln Island, and was therefore obliged 384 2,8| plants brought from Tabor Island had succeeded perfectly. ~ 385 2,8| duration, swept over Lincoln Island with extraordinary fury. 386 2,8| would soon be extinct in the island, the object aimed at by 387 2,8| the unknown parts of the island, which he surveyed with 388 2,8| picturesque parts of the island, by means of the photographic 389 2,8| the country, such as the island, taken from Prospect Heights 390 2,8| all the inhabitants of the island, leaving out no one. ~"It 391 2,8| been thrown upon Lincoln Island. ~ ~ 392 2,9| civilized world, lost on this island, as completely as if they 393 2,9| had passed in sight of the island; or, at least, not a sail 394 2,9| was evident that Lincoln Island was out of the usual track, 395 2,9| way for leaving Lincoln Island, and that is, to build a 396 2,9| easily as we went to Tabor Island." ~"I do not say no," replied 397 2,9| during the voyage to Tabor Island, we should have known that 398 2,9| yacht had appeared at Tabor Island, while he was still living 399 2,9| take him off from Tabor Island when he considered that 400 2,9| will he touch? At Tabor Island, and not at Lincoln Island." ~" 401 2,9| Island, and not at Lincoln Island." ~"That is the more certain," 402 2,9| replied Herbert, "as Lincoln Island is not even marked on the 403 2,9| that of Ayrton on Lincoln Island known at Tabor Island." ~" 404 2,9| Lincoln Island known at Tabor Island." ~"Certainly," answered 405 2,9| giving the position of our island." ~"It is a pity," remarked 406 2,9| our first visit to Tabor Island." ~"And why should we have 407 2,9| to return then to Tabor Island." ~"Yes," replied Harding, " 408 2,9| already returned to Tabor Island, since Ayrton has been with 409 2,9| October days to go to Tabor Island, and leave a notice there." ~" 410 2,9| when we have been to Tabor Island, for if the yacht has returned 411 2,9| that if we do leave Lincoln Island, it will not be because 412 2,9| making a voyage round the island.

They had not been able 415 2,9| the northwest part of the island the shore became again flat 416 2,9| bay to the north of the island, near the land, such was 417 2,9| passed to windward of the island, if it had not been for 418 2,9| on any other part of the island!" ~ ~ 419 2,0| appeared to reign over Lincoln Island. Gideon Spilett did not 420 2,0| fire on the coast of the island. The fire had actually been 421 2,0| signalize the position of the island during that dark night, 422 2,0| of every part of Lincoln Island. ~However that might be, 423 2,0| the volcanic origin of the island, it is not astonishing that 424 2,0| access to the interior of the island. I do not see a spot on 425 2,0| exploration of the coast of the island had now been made, and no 426 2,0| which had occurred on the island, and of which the last was 427 2,0| which have occurred in the island, on the subject of which 428 2,0| it be possible that our island is supernatural?" ~"No, 429 2,0| into the interior of the island, and that, without my having 430 2,0| which had occurred in the island, Herbert, Neb, and Pencroft 431 2,0| were returning from Tabor Island, Pencroft," continued the 432 2,0| fire appeared on Lincoln Island?" ~"Certainly," answered 433 2,0| nick of time on Lincoln Island. Could there be some being 434 2,0| search the whole of the island. ~But from that day Pencroft 435 2,0| anxious. He felt as if the island which he had made his own 436 2,0| from believing that Lincoln Island was under the dominion of 437 2,0| settlers passed in Lincoln Island, they were confined to Granite 438 2,0| threatened to overwhelm the island, and certainly any vessel 439 2,0| thoroughly resolved that the island should be searched, even 440 2,0| photographic views of Lincoln Island. ~Now, on the 17th of this 441 2,0| was in sight, off Lincoln Island! ~ ~ ~ 442 3 | PART 3 THE SECRET OF THE ISLAND~ 443 3,1| had been thrown on Lincoln Island, and during that period 444 3,1| appeared in sight of the island, on that deserted sea! ~ 445 3,1| their arrival in Lincoln Island. Certainly, the colonists 446 3,1| would not have left their island without regret. They were 447 3,1| it was certain that the island, overtopped by Mount Franklin, 448 3,1| mentioned no land except Tabor Island, which itself was out of 449 3,1| far distant from Lincoln Island, but that a vessel, standing 450 3,1| from Malay pirates to our island." ~"We could defend it,', 451 3,1| said Spilett. "Lincoln Island is unknown to navigators, 452 3,1| come and survey any land or island not yet known, and Lincoln 453 3,1| not yet known, and Lincoln Island is in this position." ~" 454 3,1| cables-lengths from our island, what shall we do?" ~This 455 3,1| her, and we will leave our island, after having taken possession 456 3,1| given to every part of the island; there is a natural port, 457 3,1| but to inscribe Lincoln Island on the maps!" ~"But if anyone 458 3,1| standing towards Lincoln Island. She was nearer, but in 459 3,1| bringing her towards the island, and, the sea being calm, 460 3,1| ship is in sight of the island." ~Ayrton at first paled 461 3,1| years' solitude on a desert island appear to him a sufficient 462 3,1| was a little nearer the island. With the aid of the glass, 463 3,1| vessel in the vicinity of the island was fraught with no danger. ~ 464 3,1| to the waters of Lincoln Island? Who could foresee what 465 3,1| whoever she may be, that the island is inhabited. To neglect 466 3,1| at the shores of Lincoln Island? Was it to them an unknown 467 3,1| Was it to them an unknown island, ready to become a magazine 468 3,1| survey the coast of the island. Perhaps her crew will not 469 3,1| the presence of men on the island." ~"And our vessel?" said 470 3,1| endeavor to seize Lincoln Island, we shall defend it-shall 471 3,1| else-already visited the island, since on approaching it 472 3,1| Profound darkness enveloped the island and the sea. No light could 473 3,1| was still in sight of the island, her whereabouts could not 474 3,2| short distance from the island, and it was evident that 475 3,2| examining the interior of the island. It might be, indeed, that 476 3,2| the colonists of Lincoln Island to reply to the pirates' 477 3,2| on the shores of Norfolk Island this brig, which was loaded 478 3,2| prisoners, escaped from Norfolk Island. ~Here it may be well to 479 3,2| well to explain what this island was. In 29deg 2' south latitude, 480 3,2| Australia, is found a little island, six miles in circumference, 481 3,2| the sea. This is Norfolk Island, once the seat of an establishment 482 3,2| anchored in sight of Norfolk Island; the crew had been massacred; 483 3,2| Speedy" in sight of Lincoln Island; Bob Harvey had never yet 484 3,2| the convicts and Lincoln Island. ~The settlers' domain was 485 3,2| terrible danger. Evidently the island, with its water, its harbor, 486 3,2| hiding themselves in the island, since the convicts intended 487 3,2| six settlers of Lincoln Island to contend with! But now, 488 3,2| his own life, but save the island and the colonists. Cyrus 489 3,2| their works destroyed, their island turned into a pirates' den! 490 3,2| to make a descent on the island! ~Half an hour was passed 491 3,2| They knew that Lincoln Island was inhabited.
