smells
some
amphibious
creature
,
"
replied
Herbert
.
"
An
alligator
,
perhaps
,
"
said
the
reporter
.
"
I
do
not
think
so
,
"
replied
Harding
.
"
Alligators
are
only
met
with
in
regions
less
elevated
in
latitude
.
"
Meanwhile
Top
had
returned
at
his
master
's
call
,
and
had
regained
the
shore
:
but
he
could
not
stay
quiet
;
he
plunged
in
among
the
tall
grass
,
and
guided
by
instinct
,
he
appeared
to
follow
some
invisible
being
which
was
slipping
along
under
the
surface
of
the
water
.
However
the
water
was
calm
;
not
a
ripple
disturbed
its
surface
.
Several
times
the
settlers
stopped
on
the
bank
,
and
observed
it
attentively
.
Nothing
appeared
.
There
was
some
mystery
there
.
The
engineer
was
puzzled
.
"
Let
us
pursue
this
exploration
to
the
end
,
"
said
he
.
Half
an
hour
after
they
had
all
arrived
at
the
southeast
angle
of
the
lake
,
on
Prospect
Heights
.
At
this
point
the
examination
of
the
banks
of
the
lake
was
considered
finished
,
and
yet
the
engineer
had
not
been
able
to
discover
how
and
where
the
waters
were
discharged
.
"
There
is
no
doubt
this
overflow
exists
,
"
he
repeated
,
and
since
it
is
not
visible
it
must
go
through
the
granite
cliff
at
the
west
!
"
"
But
what
importance
do
you
attach
to
knowing
that
,
my
dear
Cyrus
?
"
asked
Gideon
Spilett
.
"
Considerable
importance
,
"
replied
the
engineer
;
"
for
if
it
flows
through
the
cliff
there
is
probably
some
cavity
,
which
it
would
be
easy
to
render
habitable
after
turning
away
the
water
.
"
"
But
is
it
not
possible
,
captain
,
that
the
water
flows
away
at
the
bottom
of
the
lake
,
"
said
Herbert
,
"
and
that
it
reaches
the
sea
by
some
subterranean
passage
?
