The memory Of the depth below

firmly about it.

which I swung out over that gulf amid

1t sounded so close at hand the fellow
could scarcely have been five yards
away. Another voice answered, and
we were aware Of bodies, stealing
along through the wood; there was q
faint rustling of dead leaves, and the
occasional swish of branch. We
crouched low in the trail, fairly hold

There was no sound from below, but
in the other direction one warrior
l could see the dim outline Of his ma

OF my outstretched hand.
Assured that all had passed beyond

"'Twas the tongue Of the Tuscaro-

me little of it years ago. The first
words spoken were a warning to be
still; the other answered that the white
men are all asleep"
"And I am not sure but that Is true.

would be well guarded, but De Baugis

The remaining distance to the wa
ter's edge was not far-a direct de-
scent amid litter of rocks, Swallowed
by great trees. Nothing opposed our
passage, nor did we hear any sound
from the savages concealed in the for
est above. D'Artigny led the way
along the shore until we reached the
log hut. It's door stood open; the canoe
