They
told
him
,
and
Spilett
begged
him
to
remain
perfectly
still
,
telling
him
that
his
life
was
not
in
danger
,
and
that
his
wounds
would
heal
in
a
few
days
.
However
,
Herbert
scarcely
suffered
at
all
,
and
the
cold
water
with
which
they
were
constantly
bathed
,
prevented
any
inflammation
of
the
wounds
.
The
suppuration
was
established
in
a
regular
way
,
the
fever
did
not
increase
,
and
it
might
now
be
hoped
that
this
terrible
wound
would
not
involve
any
catastrophe
.
Pencroft
felt
the
swelling
of
his
heart
gradually
subside
.
He
was
like
a
sister
of
mercy
.
like
a
mother
by
the
bed
of
her
child
.
Herbert
dozed
again
,
but
his
sleep
appeared
more
natural
.
"
Tell
me
again
that
you
hope
,
Mr.
Spilett
,
"
said
Pencroft
.
"
Tell
me
again
that
you
will
save
Herbert
!

"
Yes
,
we
will
save
him
!
"
replied
the
reporter
.
"
The
wound
is
serious
,
and
,
perhaps
,
even
the
ball
has
traversed
the
lungs
,
but
the
perforation
of
this
organ
is
not
fatal
.
"
"
God
bless
you
!
"
answered
Pencroft
.
As
may
be
believed
,
during
the
four-and-twenty
hours
they
had
been
in
the
corral
,
the
colonists
had
no
other
thought
than
that
of
nursing
Herbert
.
They
did
not
think
either
of
the
danger
which
threatened
them
should
the
convicts
return
,
or
of
the
precautions
to
be
taken
for
the
future
.
But
on
this
day
,
while
Pencroft
watched
by
the
sick-bed
,
Cyrus
Harding
and
the
reporter
consulted
as
to
what
it
would
be
best
to
do
.

First
of
all
they
examined
the
corral
.
There
was
not
a
trace
of
Ayrton
.
Had
the
unhappy
man
been
dragged
away
by
his
former
accomplices
?
Had
he
resisted
,
and
been
overcome
in
the
struggle
?
This
last
supposition
was
only
too
probable
.
Gideon
Spilett
,
at
the
moment
he
scaled
the
palisade
,
had
clearly
seen
some
one
of
the
convicts
running
along
the
southern
spur
of
Mount
Franklin
,
towards
whom
Top
had
sprung
.
It
was
one
of
those
whose
object
had
been
so
completely
defeated
by
the
rocks
at
the
mouth
of
the
Mercy
.
Besides
,
the
one
killed
by
Harding
,
and
whose
body
was
found
outside
the
enclosure
,
of
course
belonged
to
Bob
Harvey
's
crew
.
As
to
the
corral
,
it
had
not
suffered
any
damage
.
The
gates
were
closed
,
and
the
animals
had
not
been
able
to
disperse
in
the
forest
.
Nor
could
they
see
traces
of
any
struggle
,
any
devastation
,
either
in
the
hut
,
or
in
the
palisade
.
The
ammunition
only
,
with
which
Ayrton
had
been
supplied
,
had
disappeared
with
him
.
