At
last
Glenarvan
said
:
"
Well
,
our
friends
wo
n't
be
disappointed
this
time
;
they
will
be
sure
of
finding
clear
,
cool
water
when
they
get
here
--
that
is
to
say
,
if
Thalcave
leaves
any
for
them
.
"
"
But
could
n't
we
go
to
meet
them
?
It
would
spare
them
several
hours
'
suffering
and
anxiety
.

You
're
right
my
boy
;
but
how
could
we
carry
them
this
water
?
The
leather
bottles
were
left
with
Wilson
.
No
;
it
is
better
for
us
to
wait
for
them
as
we
agreed
.
They
ca
n't
be
here
till
about
the
middle
of
the
night
,
so
the
best
thing
we
can
do
is
to
get
a
good
bed
and
a
good
supper
ready
for
them
.
"
Thalcave
had
not
waited
for
Glenarvan
's
proposition
to
prepare
an
encampment
.
He
had
been
fortunate
enough
to
discover
on
the
banks
of
the
rio
a
ramada
,
a
sort
of
enclosure
,
which
had
served
as
a
fold
for
flocks
,
and
was
shut
in
on
three
sides
.
A
more
suitable
place
could
not
be
found
for
their
night
's
lodging
,
provided
they
had
no
fear
of
sleeping
in
the
open
air
beneath
the
star-lit
heavens
;
and
none
of
Thalcave
's
companions
had
much
solicitude
on
that
score
.
Accordingly
they
took
possession
at
once
,
and
stretched
themselves
at
full
length
on
the
ground
in
the
bright
sunshine
,
to
dry
their
dripping
garments
.
"
Well
,
now
we
've
secured
a
lodging
,
we
must
think
of
supper
,
"
said
Glenarvan
.
"
Our
friends
must
not
have
reason
to
complain
of
the
couriers
they
sent
to
precede
them
;
and
if
I
am
not
much
mistaken
,
they
will
be
very
satisfied
.
It
strikes
me
that
an
hour
's
shooting
wo
n't
be
lost
time
.
Are
you
ready
,
Robert
?

"
Yes
,
my
Lord
,
"
replied
the
boy
,
standing
up
,
gun
in
hand
.
Why
Glenarvan
proposed
this
was
,
that
the
banks
of
the
Guamini
seemed
to
be
the
general
rendezvous
of
all
the
game
in
the
surrounding
plains
.
A
sort
of
partridge
peculiar
to
the
Pampas
,
called
TINAMOUS
;
black
wood-hens
;
a
species
of
plover
,
called
TERU-TERU
;
yellow
rays
,
and
waterfowl
with
magnificent
green
plumage
,
rose
in
coveys
.
No
quadrupeds
,
however
,
were
visible
,
but
Thalcave
pointed
to
the
long
grass
and
thick
brushwood
,
and
gave
his
friends
to
understand
they
were
lying
there
in
concealment
.
Disdaining
the
feathered
tribes
when
more
substantial
game
was
at
hand
,
the
hunters
'
first
shots
were
fired
into
the
underwood
.
Instantly
there
rose
by
the
hundred
roebucks
and
guanacos
,
like
those
that
had
swept
over
them
that
terrible
night
on
the
Cordilleras
,
but
the
timid
creatures
were
so
frightened
that
they
were
all
out
of
gunshot
in
a
twinkling
.
The
hunters
were
obliged
to
content
themselves
with
humbler
game
,
though
in
an
alimentary
point
of
view
nothing
better
could
be
wished
.
A
dozen
of
red
partridges
and
rays
were
speedily
brought
down
,
and
Glenarvan
also
managed
very
cleverly
to
kill
a
TAY-TETRE
,
or
peccary
,
a
pachydermatous
animal
,
the
flesh
of
which
is
excellent
eating
.
