The
most
important
and
most
urgent
was
the
establishment
of
a
bridge
over
the
Mercy
,
so
as
to
form
a
communication
with
the
southern
part
of
the
island
and
Granite
House
;
then
the
making
of
an
enclosure
for
the
musmons
or
other
woolly
animals
which
they
wished
to
capture
.
These
two
projects
would
help
to
solve
the
difficulty
as
to
their
clothing
,
which
was
now
serious
.
The
bridge
would
render
easy
the
transport
of
the
balloon
case
,
which
would
furnish
them
with
linen
,
and
the
inhabitants
of
the
enclosure
would
yield
wool
which
would
supply
them
with
winter
clothes
.
As
to
the
enclosure
,
it
was
Cyrus
Harding
's
intention
to
establish
it
at
the
sources
of
the
Red
Creek
,
where
the
ruminants
would
find
fresh
and
abundant
pasture
.
The
road
between
Prospect
Heights
and
the
sources
of
the
stream
was
already
partly
beaten
,
and
with
a
better
cart
than
the
first
,
the
material
could
be
easily
conveyed
to
the
spot
,
especially
if
they
could
manage
to
capture
some
animals
to
draw
it
.
But
though
there
might
be
no
inconvenience
in
the
enclosure
being
so
far
from
Granite
House
,
it
would
not
be
the
same
with
the
poultry-yard
,
to
which
Neb
called
the
attention
of
the
colonists
.
It
was
indeed
necessary
that
the
birds
should
be
close
within
reach
of
the
cook
,
and
no
place
appeared
more
favorable
for
the
establishment
of
the
said
poultry-yard
than
that
portion
of
the
banks
of
the
lake
which
was
close
to
the
old
opening
.
Water-birds
would
prosper
there
as
well
as
others
,
and
the
couple
of
tinamous
taken
in
their
last
excursion
would
be
the
first
to
be
domesticated
.
The
next
day
,
the
3rd
of
November
,
the
new
works
were
begun
by
the
construction
of
the
bridge
,
and
all
hands
were
required
for
this
important
task
.
Saws
,
hatchets
,
and
hammers
were
shouldered
by
the
settlers
,
who
,
now
transformed
into
carpenters
,
descended
to
the
shore
.
There
Pencroft
observed
,
--
"
Suppose
,
that
during
our
absence
,
Master
Jup
takes
it
into
his
head
to
draw
up
the
ladder
which
he
so
politely
returned
to
us
yesterday
?
"
"
Let
us
tie
its
lower
end
down
firmly
,
"
replied
Cyrus
Harding
.
This
was
done
by
means
of
two
stakes
securely
fixed
in
the
sand
.
Then
the
settlers
,
ascending
the
left
bank
of
the
Mercy
,
soon
arrived
at
the
angle
formed
by
the
river
.
