"
But
is
he
equal
to
five
?
"
asked
the
engineer
.
"
I
will
join
Pencroft
,
"
said
the
reporter
,
"
and
both
of
us
,
well-armed
and
accompanied
by
Top
--
"
"
My
dear
Spilett
,
and
you
,
Pencroft
,
"
answered
Harding
,
"
let
us
reason
coolly
.
If
the
convicts
were
hid
in
one
spot
of
the
island
,
if
we
knew
that
spot
,
and
had
only
to
dislodge
them
,
I
would
undertake
a
direct
attack
;
but
is
there
not
occasion
to
fear
,
on
the
contrary
,
that
they
are
sure
to
fire
the
first
shot
?

"
Well
,
captain
,
"
cried
Pencroft
,
"
a
bullet
does
not
always
reach
its
mark
.
"
"
That
which
struck
Herbert
did
not
miss
,
Pencroft
,
"
replied
the
engineer
.
"
Besides
,
observe
that
if
both
of
you
left
the
corral
I
should
remain
here
alone
to
defend
it
.
Do
you
imagine
that
the
convicts
will
not
see
you
leave
it
,
that
they
will
not
allow
you
to
enter
the
forest
,
and
that
they
will
not
attack
it
during
your
absence
,
knowing
that
there
is
no
one
here
but
a
wounded
boy
and
a
man
?
"
"
You
are
right
,
captain
,
"
replied
Pencroft
,
his
chest
swelling
with
sullen
anger
.
"
You
are
right
;
they
will
do
all
they
can
to
retake
the
corral
,
which
they
know
to
be
well
stored
;
and
alone
you
could
not
hold
it
against
them
.

Oh
,
if
we
were
only
at
Granite
House
!
"
"
If
we
were
at
Granite
House
,
"
answered
the
engineer
,
"
the
case
would
be
very
different
.
There
I
should
not
be
afraid
to
leave
Herbert
with
one
,
while
the
other
three
went
to
search
the
forests
of
the
island
.
But
we
are
at
the
corral
,
and
it
is
best
to
stay
here
until
we
can
leave
it
together
.
"
Cyrus
Harding
's
reasoning
was
unanswerable
,
and
his
companions
understood
it
well
.
