The
colonists
,
walking
apart
,
but
not
straying
far
from
each
other
,
began
to
skirt
the
edge
of
the
lake
,
which
was
very
steep
.
The
water
appeared
to
be
full
of
fish
,
and
Pencroft
resolved
to
make
some
fishing-rods
,
so
as
to
try
and
catch
some
.
The
northeast
point
was
first
to
be
doubled
.
It
might
have
been
supposed
that
the
discharge
of
water
was
at
this
place
,
for
the
extremity
of
the
lake
was
almost
on
a
level
with
the
edge
of
the
plateau
.
But
no
signs
of
this
were
discovered
,
and
the
colonists
continued
to
explore
the
bank
,
which
,
after
a
slight
bend
,
descended
parallel
to
the
shore
.
On
this
side
the
banks
were
less
woody
,
but
clumps
of
trees
,
here
and
there
,
added
to
the
picturesqueness
of
the
country
.
Lake
Grant
was
viewed
from
thence
in
all
its
extent
,
and
no
breath
disturbed
the
surface
of
its
waters
.
Top
,
in
beating
the
bushes
,
put
up
flocks
of
birds
of
different
kinds
,
which
Gideon
Spilett
and
Herbert
saluted
with
arrows
.
One
was
hit
by
the
lad
,
and
fell
into
some
marshy
grass
.
Top
rushed
forward
,
and
brought
a
beautiful
swimming
bird
,
of
a
slate
color
,
short
beak
,
very
developed
frontal
plate
,
and
wings
edged
with
white
.
It
was
a
"
coot
,
"
the
size
of
a
large
partridge
,
belonging
to
the
group
of
macrodactyls
which
form
the
transition
between
the
order
of
wading
birds
and
that
of
palmipeds
.
Sorry
game
,
in
truth
,
and
its
flavor
is
far
from
pleasant
.
But
Top
was
not
so
particular
in
these
things
as
his
masters
,
and
it
was
agreed
that
the
coot
should
be
for
his
supper
.
The
settlers
were
now
following
the
eastern
bank
of
the
lake
,
and
they
would
not
be
long
in
reaching
the
part
which
they
already
knew
.
The
engineer
was
much
surprised
at
not
seeing
any
indication
of
the
discharge
of
water
.
The
reporter
and
the
sailor
talked
with
him
,
and
he
could
not
conceal
his
astonishment
.
At
this
moment
Top
,
who
had
been
very
quiet
till
then
,
gave
signs
of
agitation
.
The
intelligent
animal
went
backwards
and
forwards
on
the
shore
,
stopped
suddenly
,
and
looked
at
the
water
,
one
paw
raised
,
as
if
he
was
pointing
at
some
invisible
game
;
then
he
barked
furiously
,
and
was
suddenly
silent
.
Neither
Cyrus
Harding
nor
his
companions
had
at
first
paid
any
attention
to
Top
's
behavior
;
but
the
dog
's
barking
soon
became
so
frequent
that
the
engineer
noticed
it
.
"
What
is
there
,
Top
?
"
he
asked
.
The
dog
bounded
towards
his
master
,
seeming
to
be
very
uneasy
,
and
then
rushed
again
towards
the
bank
.
Then
,
all
at
once
,
he
plunged
into
the
lake
.
"
Here
,
Top
!
"
cried
Cyrus
Harding
,
who
did
not
like
his
dog
to
venture
into
the
treacherous
water
.
"
What
's
happening
down
there
?
"
asked
Pencroft
,
examining
the
surface
of
the
lake
.
