I
was
,
I
will
admit
,
somewhat
baffled
by
the
difficulty
of
discovering
an
envelope
to
contain
the
gas
,
but
the
contemplation
of
the
immense
entrails
of
these
reptiles
supplied
me
with
a
solution
to
the
problem
.
Behold
the
result
!
"
He
put
one
hand
in
the
front
of
his
ragged
jacket
and
pointed
proudly
with
the
other
.
By
this
time
the
gas-bag
had
swollen
to
a
goodly
rotundity
and
was
jerking
strongly
upon
its
lashings
.
"
Midsummer
madness
!
"
snorted
Summerlee
.
Lord
John
was
delighted
with
the
whole
idea
.
"
Clever
old
dear
,
ai
n't
he
?
"
he
whispered
to
me
,
and
then
louder
to
Challenger
.
"
What
about
a
car
?
"
"
The
car
will
be
my
next
care
.
I
have
already
planned
how
it
is
to
be
made
and
attached
.
Meanwhile
I
will
simply
show
you
how
capable
my
apparatus
is
of
supporting
the
weight
of
each
of
us
.
"
"
All
of
us
,
surely
?
"
"
No
,
it
is
part
of
my
plan
that
each
in
turn
shall
descend
as
in
a
parachute
,
and
the
balloon
be
drawn
back
by
means
which
I
shall
have
no
difficulty
in
perfecting
.
If
it
will
support
the
weight
of
one
and
let
him
gently
down
,
it
will
have
done
all
that
is
required
of
it
.
I
will
now
show
you
its
capacity
in
that
direction
.

He
brought
out
a
lump
of
basalt
of
a
considerable
size
,
constructed
in
the
middle
so
that
a
cord
could
be
easily
attached
to
it
.
This
cord
was
the
one
which
we
had
brought
with
us
on
to
the
plateau
after
we
had
used
it
for
climbing
the
pinnacle
.
It
was
over
a
hundred
feet
long
,
and
though
it
was
thin
it
was
very
strong
.
He
had
prepared
a
sort
of
collar
of
leather
with
many
straps
depending
from
it
.
This
collar
was
placed
over
the
dome
of
the
balloon
,
and
the
hanging
thongs
were
gathered
together
below
,
so
that
the
pressure
of
any
weight
would
be
diffused
over
a
considerable
surface
.
Then
the
lump
of
basalt
was
fastened
to
the
thongs
,
and
the
rope
was
allowed
to
hang
from
the
end
of
it
,
being
passed
three
times
round
the
Professor
's
arm
.
