There's plenty of fruit to be had." For he had noticed several trees well laden as he passed through the woods.

"I'll not starve here as long as I have fruit and fish." He gathered some things that looked a cross between an orange and a tangerine and ate several, finding them delicious.

By the time the fish were well done Bob, preparing to eat his odd breakfast, was suddenly startled by a groan.

It seemed to come from behind a pile of rocks off to the left.
"I wonder what that was ?" thought Bob.

"An animal or a human being?
I wonder if there are any South Sea natives on this island ?" He put down his fish on some big green leaves he had plucked for plates and went toward the rocks.
