The scieechmgs of these featheied companions kept them awake all night, and it was well that this was so, for it is doubtful whether they would have been found ah\e had sleep ovei taken them. Lovegio\e says that at one peiiod Lane was unconscious, and lie thumped him on the back until he could get him to talk. NeiLhei will admit being the least afi.ud din mi? their t-tay on the island. They saw tlu» people on shoie, and knew that they could be rescued some tune 01 another. At the same tune, however, they would not like to have the adventure lepeatcd.
