On
a
sign
from
the
Indian
Glenarvan
took
his
place
,
while
Thalcave
went
back
into
the
inclosure
and
gathered
up
all
the
dried
grass
and
ALFAFARES
,
and
,
indeed
,
all
the
combustibles
he
could
rake
together
,
and
made
a
pile
of
them
at
the
entrance
.
Into
this
he
flung
one
of
the
still-glowing
embers
,
and
soon
the
bright
flames
shot
up
into
the
dark
night
.
Glenarvan
could
now
get
a
good
glimpse
of
his
antagonists
,
and
saw
that
it
was
impossible
to
exaggerate
their
numbers
or
their
fury
.
The
barrier
of
fire
just
raised
by
Thalcave
had
redoubled
their
anger
,
though
it
had
cut
off
their
approach
.
Several
of
them
,
however
,
urged
on
by
the
hindmost
ranks
,
pushed
forward
into
the
very
flames
,
and
burned
their
paws
for
their
pains
.
From
time
to
time
another
shot
had
to
be
fired
,
notwithstanding
the
fire
,
to
keep
off
the
howling
pack
,
and
in
the
course
of
an
hour
fifteen
dead
animals
lay
stretched
on
the
prairie
.
The
situation
of
the
besieged
was
,
relatively
speaking
,
less
dangerous
now
.
As
long
as
the
powder
lasted
and
the
barrier
of
fire
burned
on
,
there
was
no
fear
of
being
overmastered
.
But
what
was
to
be
done
afterward
,
when
both
means
of
defense
failed
at
once
?
Glenarvan
's
heart
swelled
as
he
looked
at
Robert
.
He
forgot
himself
in
thinking
of
this
poor
child
,
as
he
saw
him
showing
a
courage
so
far
above
his
years
.
Robert
was
pale
,
but
he
kept
his
gun
steady
,
and
stood
with
firm
foot
ready
to
meet
the
attacks
of
the
infuriated
wolves
.
However
,
after
Glenarvan
had
calmly
surveyed
the
actual
state
of
affairs
,
he
determined
to
bring
things
to
a
crisis
.
"
In
an
hour
's
time
,
"
he
said
,
"
we
shall
neither
have
powder
nor
fire
.
It
will
never
do
to
wait
till
then
before
we
settle
what
to
do
.
"
Accordingly
,
he
went
up
to
Thalcave
,
and
tried
to
talk
to
him
by
the
help
of
the
few
Spanish
words
his
memory
could
muster
,
though
their
conversation
was
often
interrupted
by
one
or
the
other
having
to
fire
a
shot
.
It
was
no
easy
task
for
the
two
men
to
understand
each
other
,
but
,
most
fortunately
,
Glenarvan
knew
a
great
deal
of
the
peculiarities
of
the
red
wolf
;
otherwise
he
could
never
have
interpreted
the
Indian
's
words
and
gestures
.
As
it
was
,
fully
a
quarter
of
an
hour
elapsed
before
he
could
get
any
answer
from
Thalcave
to
tell
Robert
in
reply
to
his
inquiry
.
