There
it
was
examined
by
the
colonists
,
who
found
that
it
was
a
fragment
of
Ayrton
's
waistcoat
,
a
piece
of
that
felt
,
manufactured
solely
by
the
Granite
House
factory
.
"
You
see
,
Pencroft
,
"
observed
Harding
,
"
there
has
been
resistance
on
the
part
of
the
unfortunate
Ayrton
.
The
convicts
have
dragged
him
away
in
spite
of
himself
!
Do
you
still
doubt
his
honesty
?
"
"
No
,
captain
,
"
answered
the
sailor
,
"
and
I
repented
of
my
suspicion
a
long
time
ago
!
But
it
seems
to
me
that
something
may
be
learned
from
the
incident
.

"
What
is
that
?
"
asked
the
reporter
.
"
It
is
that
Ayrton
was
not
killed
at
the
corral
!
That
they
dragged
him
away
living
,
since
he
has
resisted
.
Therefore
,
perhaps
,
he
is
still
living
!
"
"
Perhaps
,
indeed
,
"
replied
the
engineer
,
who
remained
thoughtful
.
This
was
a
hope
,
to
which
Ayrton
's
companions
could
still
hold
.
Indeed
,
they
had
before
believed
that
,
surprised
in
the
corral
,
Ayrton
had
fallen
by
a
bullet
,
as
Herbert
had
fallen
.
But
if
the
convicts
had
not
killed
him
at
first
,
if
they
had
brought
him
living
to
another
part
of
the
island
,
might
it
not
be
admitted
that
he
was
still
their
prisoner
?
Perhaps
,
even
,
one
of
them
had
found
in
Ayrton
his
old
Australian
companion
Ben
Joyce
,
the
chief
of
the
escaped
convicts
.

And
who
knows
but
that
they
had
conceived
the
impossible
hope
of
bringing
back
Ayrton
to
themselves
?
He
would
have
been
very
useful
to
them
,
if
they
had
been
able
to
make
him
turn
traitor
!
This
incident
was
,
therefore
,
favorably
interpreted
at
the
corral
,
and
it
no
longer
appeared
impossible
that
they
should
find
Ayrton
again
.
On
his
side
,
if
he
was
only
a
prisoner
,
Ayrton
would
no
doubt
do
all
he
could
to
escape
from
the
hands
of
the
villains
,
and
this
would
be
a
powerful
aid
to
the
settlers
!
"
At
any
rate
,
"
observed
Gideon
Spilett
,
"
if
happily
Ayrton
did
manage
to
escape
,
he
would
go
directly
to
Granite
House
,
for
he
could
not
know
of
the
attempted
assassination
of
which
Herbert
has
been
a
victim
,
and
consequently
would
never
think
of
our
being
imprisoned
in
the
corral
.
