Crusoe's Big Discovery

One day while on the island he notices a large footprint in the sand.  Crusoe knew there were possible cannibals that lived in the region, and he became very scared and set up safe havens and made weapons and under ground dwellings to hide in from the cannibals.  One particular day he sees the cannibals on the island bringing ashore 2 men from a ship that had wrecked on his island the night before.  One the cannibals was already killed, but the other was able to get free and ran towards Crusoe's dwelling where he was able to save him.  Crusoe named him Friday because of the day that he rescued him.  They lived together and helped each other, until one day a group of 21 cannibals came to where they were living.  Crusoe and Friday manage to kill most of the natives and save two of the prisoners. One is Friday's father and the other is a Spaniard, who informs Crusoe that there are other Spaniards shipwrecked on the mainland. A plan is devised where the Spaniard would return with Friday's father to the mainland and bring back the others, build a ship and sail to a Spanish port.
