"Ahoy!" roared Jack. "That's done it," he added; "they've heard us."
Five minutes later half a dozen of the Titania's crew, headed by Harborough and with Pete bringing up the rear, arrived upon the scene. The rest of the crew were roaming over the other side of the island.
"There's one thing," remarked Harborough in a low voice to Villiers, "we shan't have our rest disturbed tomorrow night prowling around for the youngster. I was afraid he had shot himself. What did he shoot, by the by?"
"Two pigs," replied Jack.
"Hurrah, massa!" shouted Pete, who happened to overhear the conversation. "Roast pork to-morrow!"
"Right-o, Pete!" rejoined Villiers. "You can jolly well help to bring in the meat."
