One day , they saw a ship, which had laid anchor. An encampment had been set up on one of
the smaller island. After checking the people through their spyglass, Fritz and his father decided to
announce themselves after they had returned home and cleaned it up. They did not want the crew to
think they were savages. The next day, Fritz and his father, met the captain and told him their own
history as well as Jenny’s. To everyone’s surprise, it had been Jenny’s father who had inspired the
captain’s search; he believed his daughter was still alive after three years. The captain had decided to
attempt to find her.
With a burst of celebration, the family, passengers, and crew of the British vessel headed
towards New Switzerland. Everyone was amazed by the prosperity and good health of the survivors.
As the day ended, the father realised that decisions must be made about who wanted to stay
on the island or return with the ship. Elizabeth and her husband did not wish to live anywhere but on
the island. They had been there for so long and had grown used to their life. Jenny asked if anyone
would support her return to England. Fritz was the first to respond. He offered cheers for 'us' who
were going to Europe. Ernest, on the other hand, wanted to stay on the island. Jack also decided to
stay back. Franz, the youngest boy , decided to join Fritz in leaving. Franz wanted a chance to receive
an academic education. Before Fritz left , he told his parents of his love for Jenny and his wish to
marry her.
The father had a record of all the adventures they had had on the island. He handed over the
journals to the captain to be published. Then the ship departed.
