Two days passed. He found six bits of cedar and obtained a fire. He killed some reindeer and preserved the torn flesh in the ice. It was preserved thus all the year. Having no axe he transported to his grotto the splinters of the trees torn to pieces by the frost.

The fourth of August, on board of the boat which had just picked him up, he saw the island of Spitzbergen recede. He lost sight of the great mountains. He was journeying toward home. A sailor, whose life he had saved, accompanied him. He had remained nine years on the island. When he arrived at X and disembarked those who saw his white hair and his dull eyes did not believe that he was the same sailor whom they had accompanied to the ship at the age of nineteen years.
