It never did; but Antifer succeeded in discovering it and had a series of most exciting adventures in searching for the wealth which was to be found on the spot indicated. Antifer's efforts to find the islet's longitude complicated by treachery and demands of marriage take him to the Gulf of Oman the Gulf of Guinea and even north of Norway.
