When dawn broke upon the little camp of Frenchmen in the heart of the jungle it found a sad and disheartened group.

As soon as it was light enough to see their surroundings Lieutenant1 Charpentier sent men in groups of three in several directions to locate the trail, and in ten minutes it was found and the expedition was hurrying back toward the beach.

It was slow work, for they bore the bodies of six dead men, two more having succumbed2 during the night, and several of those who were wounded required support to move even very slowly.

Charpentier had decided3 to return to camp for reinforcements, and then make an attempt to track down the natives and rescue D’Arnot.

It was late in the afternoon when the exhausted4 men reached the clearing by the beach, but for two of them the return brought so great a happiness that all their suffering and heartbreaking grief was forgotten on the instant.

As the little party emerged from the jungle the first person that Professor Porter and Cecil Clayton saw was Jane, standing5 by the cabin door.

With a little cry of joy and relief she ran forward to greet them, throwing her arms about her father’s neck and bursting into tears for the first time since they had been cast upon this hideous6 and adventurous7 shore.

Professor Porter strove manfully to suppress his own emotions, but the strain upon his nerves and weakened vitality8 were too much for him, and at length, burying his old face in the girl’s shoulder, he sobbed9 quietly like a tired child.

Jane led him toward the cabin, and the Frenchmen turned toward the beach from which several of their fellows were advancing to meet them.
