He
could
not
well
negotiate
the
trees
with
his
awkward
burden
,
but
he
kept
to
the
trails
,
and
so
made
fairly
good
time
.
For
several
hours
he
traveled
a
little
north
of
east
until
he
came
to
an
impenetrable
wall
of
matted
and
tangled
vegetation
.
Then
he
took
to
the
lower
branches
,
and
in
another
fifteen
minutes
he
emerged
into
the
amphitheater
of
the
apes
,
where
they
met
in
council
,
or
to
celebrate
the
rites
of
the
Dum-Dum
.
Near
the
center
of
the
clearing
,
and
not
far
from
the
drum
,
or
altar
,
he
commenced
to
dig
.
This
was
harder
work
than
turning
up
the
freshly
excavated
earth
at
the
grave
,
but
Tarzan
of
the
Apes
was
persevering
and
so
he
kept
at
his
labor
until
he
was
rewarded
by
seeing
a
hole
sufficiently
deep
to
receive
the
chest
and
effectually
hide
it
from
view
.

Why
had
he
gone
to
all
this
labor
without
knowing
the
value
of
the
contents
of
the
chest
?
Tarzan
of
the
Apes
had
a
man
's
figure
and
a
man
's
brain
,
but
he
was
an
ape
by
training
and
environment
.
His
brain
told
him
that
the
chest
contained
something
valuable
,
or
the
men
would
not
have
hidden
it
.
His
training
had
taught
him
to
imitate
whatever
was
new
and
unusual
,
and
now
the
natural
curiosity
,
which
is
as
common
to
men
as
to
apes
,
prompted
him
to
open
the
chest
and
examine
its
contents
.
But
the
heavy
lock
and
massive
iron
bands
baffled
both
his
cunning
and
his
immense
strength
,
so
that
he
was
compelled
to
bury
the
chest
without
having
his
curiosity
satisfied
.

By
the
time
Tarzan
had
hunted
his
way
back
to
the
vicinity
of
the
cabin
,
feeding
as
he
went
,
it
was
quite
dark
.
Within
the
little
building
a
light
was
burning
,
for
Clayton
had
found
an
unopened
tin
of
oil
which
had
stood
intact
for
twenty
years
,
a
part
of
the
supplies
left
with
the
Claytons
by
Black
Michael
.
The
lamps
also
were
still
useable
,
and
thus
the
interior
of
the
cabin
appeared
as
bright
as
day
to
the
astonished
Tarzan
.
He
had
often
wondered
at
the
exact
purpose
of
the
lamps
.
His
reading
and
the
pictures
had
told
him
what
they
were
,
but
he
had
no
idea
of
how
they
could
be
made
to
produce
the
wondrous
sunlight
that
some
of
his
pictures
had
portrayed
them
as
diffusing
upon
all
surrounding
objects
.
