I
stared
at
the
distant
houses
.
For
the
first
time
since
our
starvation
in
the
crater
I
thought
of
earthly
food
.
"
Bacon
,
"
I
whispered
,
"
eggs
.
Good
toast
and
good
coffee
...
And
how
the
devil
am
I
going
to
get
all
this
stuff
to
Lympne
?
"
I
wondered
where
I
was
.
It
was
an
east
shore
anyhow
,
and
I
had
seen
Europe
before
I
dropped
.
I
heard
footsteps
crunching
in
the
sand
,
and
a
little
round-faced
,
friendly-looking
man
in
flannels
,
with
a
bathing
towel
wrapped
about
his
shoulders
,
and
his
bathing
dress
over
his
arm
,
appeared
up
the
beach
.
I
knew
instantly
that
I
must
be
in
England
.
He
was
staring
most
intently
at
the
sphere
and
me
.
He
advanced
staring
.
I
dare
say
I
looked
a
ferocious
savage
enough
--
dirty
,
unkempt
,
to
an
indescribable
degree
;
but
it
did
not
occur
to
me
at
the
time
.
He
stopped
at
a
distance
of
twenty
yards
.
"
Hul-lo
,
my
man
!
"
he
said
doubtfully
.

"
Hullo
yourself
!
"
said
I.
He
advanced
,
reassured
by
that
.
"
What
on
earth
is
that
thing
?
"
he
asked
.
"
Can
you
tell
me
where
I
am
?
"
I
asked
.
"
That
's
Littlestone
,
"
he
said
,
pointing
to
the
houses
;
"
and
that
's
Dungeness
!
Have
you
just
landed
?
What
's
that
thing
you
've
got
?
Some
sort
of
machine
?
"

"
Yes
.
"
"
Have
you
floated
ashore
?
Have
you
been
wrecked
or
something
?
What
is
it
?
"
I
meditated
swiftly
.
I
made
an
estimate
of
the
little
man
's
appearance
as
he
drew
nearer
.
"
By
Jove
!
"
he
said
,
"
you
've
had
a
time
of
it
!
I
thought
you
--
Well
--
Where
were
you
cast
away
?
Is
that
thing
a
sort
of
floating
thing
for
saving
life
?
"
