But
as
Tarzan
of
the
Apes
sat
one
day
in
the
cabin
of
his
father
delving
into
the
mysteries
of
a
new
book
,
the
ancient
security
of
his
jungle
was
broken
forever
.
612
At
the
far
eastern
confine
a
strange
cavalcade
strung
,
in
single
file
,
over
the
brow
of
a
low
hill
.
613
In
advance
were
fifty
black
warriors
armed
with
slender
wooden
spears
with
ends
hard
baked
over
slow
fires
,
and
long
bows
and
poisoned
arrows
.
On
their
backs
were
oval
shields
,
in
their
noses
huge
rings
,
while
from
the
kinky
wool
of
their
heads
protruded
tufts
of
gay
feathers
.

Across
their
foreheads
were
tattooed
three
parallel
lines
of
color
,
and
on
each
breast
three
concentric
circles
.
Their
yellow
teeth
were
filed
to
sharp
points
,
and
their
great
protruding
lips
added
still
further
to
the
low
and
bestial
brutishness
of
their
appearance
.
615
Following
them
were
several
hundred
women
and
children
,
the
former
bearing
upon
their
heads
great
burdens
of
cooking
pots
,
household
utensils
and
ivory
.
In
the
rear
were
a
hundred
warriors
,
similar
in
all
respects
to
the
advance
guard
.
616
That
they
more
greatly
feared
an
attack
from
the
rear
than
whatever
unknown
enemies
lurked
in
their
advance
was
evidenced
by
the
formation
of
the
column
;
and
such
was
the
fact
,
for
they
were
fleeing
from
the
white
man
's
soldiers
who
had
so
harassed
them
for
rubber
and
ivory
that
they
had
turned
upon
their
conquerors
one
day
and
massacred
a
white
officer
and
a
small
detachment
of
his
black
troops
.
617
For
many
days
they
had
gorged
themselves
on
meat
,
but
eventually
a
stronger
body
of
troops
had
come
and
fallen
upon
their
village
by
night
to
revenge
the
death
of
their
comrades
.

That
night
the
black
soldiers
of
the
white
man
had
had
meat
a-plenty
,
and
this
little
remnant
of
a
once
powerful
tribe
had
slunk
off
into
the
gloomy
jungle
toward
the
unknown
,
and
freedom
.
619
But
that
which
meant
freedom
and
the
pursuit
of
happiness
to
these
savage
blacks
meant
consternation
and
death
to
many
of
the
wild
denizens
of
their
new
home
.
620
For
three
days
the
little
cavalcade
marched
slowly
through
the
heart
of
this
unknown
and
untracked
forest
,
until
finally
,
early
in
the
fourth
day
,
they
came
upon
a
little
spot
near
the
banks
of
a
small
river
,
which
seemed
less
thickly
overgrown
than
any
ground
they
had
yet
encountered
.
