Glenarvan
,
however
,
was
not
going
to
imitate
Hannibal
at
Capua
,
and
at
ten
o'clock
next
morning
gave
the
signal
for
starting
.
The
leathern
bottles
were
filled
with
water
,
and
the
day
's
march
commenced
.
The
horses
were
so
well
rested
that
they
were
quite
fresh
again
,
and
kept
up
a
canter
almost
constantly
.
The
country
was
not
so
parched
up
now
,
and
consequently
less
sterile
,
but
still
a
desert
.
No
incident
occurred
of
any
importance
during
the
2d
and
3d
of
November
,
and
in
the
evening
they
reached
the
boundary
of
the
Pampas
,
and
camped
for
the
night
on
the
frontiers
of
the
province
of
Buenos
Ayres
.
Two-thirds
of
their
journey
was
now
accomplished
.
It
was
twenty-two
days
since
they
left
the
Bay
of
Talcahuano
,
and
they
had
gone
450
miles
.
Next
morning
they
crossed
the
conventional
line
which
separates
the
Argentine
plains
from
the
region
of
the
Pampas
.
It
was
here
that
Thalcave
hoped
to
meet
the
Caciques
,
in
whose
hands
,
he
had
no
doubt
,
Harry
Grant
and
his
men
were
prisoners
.
From
the
time
of
leaving
the
Guamini
,
there
was
marked
change
in
the
temperature
,
to
the
great
relief
of
the
travelers
.
It
was
much
cooler
,
thanks
to
the
violent
and
cold
winds
from
Patagonia
,
which
constantly
agitate
the
atmospheric
waves
.
Horses
and
men
were
glad
enough
of
this
,
after
what
they
had
suffered
from
the
heat
and
drought
,
and
they
felt
animated
with
fresh
ardor
and
confidence
.
But
contrary
to
what
Thalcave
had
said
,
the
whole
district
appeared
uninhabited
,
or
rather
abandoned
.
Their
route
often
led
past
or
went
right
through
small
lagoons
,
sometimes
of
fresh
water
,
sometimes
of
brackish
.
On
the
banks
and
bushes
about
these
,
king-wrens
were
hopping
about
and
larks
singing
joyously
in
concert
with
the
tangaras
,
the
rivals
in
color
of
the
brilliant
humming
birds
.
On
the
thorny
bushes
the
nests
of
the
ANNUBIS
swung
to
and
fro
in
the
breeze
like
an
Indian
hammock
;
and
on
the
shore
magnificent
flamingos
stalked
in
regular
order
like
soldiers
marching
,
and
spread
out
their
flaming
red
wings
.
Their
nests
were
seen
in
groups
of
thousands
,
forming
a
complete
town
,
about
a
foot
high
,
and
resembling
a
truncated
cone
in
shape
.
The
flamingos
did
not
disturb
themselves
in
the
least
at
the
approach
of
the
travelers
,
but
this
did
not
suit
Paganel
.
"
I
have
been
very
desirous
a
long
time
,
"
he
said
to
the
Major
,
"
to
see
a
flamingo
flying
.
"
"
All
right
,
"
replied
McNabbs
.
"
Now
while
I
have
the
opportunity
,
I
should
like
to
make
the
most
of
it
,
"
continued
Paganel
.
"
Very
well
;
do
it
,
Paganel
.
"
"
Come
with
me
,
then
,
Major
,
and
you
too
Robert
.
I
want
witnesses
.
