At
this
direct
appeal
,
the
quartermaster
looked
at
Glenarvan
,
and
said
,
"
I
think
we
are
two
hundred
miles
from
Melbourne
,
and
that
the
danger
,
if
it
exists
,
is
as
great
on
the
route
to
the
south
as
on
the
route
to
the
east
.
Both
are
little
frequented
,
and
both
will
serve
us
.
Besides
,
I
do
not
think
that
thirty
scoundrels
can
frighten
eight
well-armed
,
determined
men
.
My
advice
,
then
,
is
to
go
forward
"
"
And
good
advice
too
,
Ayrton
,
"
replied
Paganel
.
"
By
going
on
we
may
come
across
the
traces
of
Captain
Grant
.
In
returning
south
,
on
the
contrary
,
we
turn
our
backs
to
them
.
I
think
with
you
,
then
,
and
I
do
n't
care
a
snap
for
these
escaped
fellows
.
A
brave
man
would
n't
care
a
bit
for
them
!
"
Upon
this
they
agreed
with
the
one
voice
to
follow
their
original
programme
.
"
Just
one
thing
,
my
Lord
,
"
said
Ayrton
,
when
they
were
about
to
separate
.
"
Say
on
,
Ayrton
.
"
"
Would
n't
it
be
advisable
to
send
orders
to
the
Duncan
to
be
at
the
coast
?
"
"
What
good
would
that
be
,
"
replied
John
Mangles
.
"
When
we
reach
Twofold
Bay
it
will
be
time
enough
for
that
.
If
any
unexpected
event
should
oblige
us
to
go
to
Melbourne
,
we
might
be
sorry
not
to
find
the
Duncan
there
.
Besides
,
her
injuries
can
not
be
repaired
yet
.
For
these
reasons
,
then
,
I
think
it
would
be
better
to
wait
.
"
"
All
right
,
"
said
Ayrton
,
and
forbore
to
press
the
matter
further
.
ON
January
6
,
at
7
A.
M.
,
after
a
tranquil
night
passed
in
longitude
146
degrees
15
"
,
the
travelers
continued
their
journey
across
the
vast
district
.
They
directed
their
course
steadily
toward
the
rising
sun
,
and
made
a
straight
line
across
the
plain
.
Twice
over
they
came
upon
the
traces
of
squatters
going
toward
the
north
,
and
their
different
footprints
became
confused
,
and
Glenarvan
's
horse
no
longer
left
on
the
dust
the
Blackpoint
mark
,
recognizable
by
its
double
shamrock
.
The
plain
was
furrowed
in
some
places
by
fantastic
winding
creeks
surrounded
by
box
,
and
whose
waters
were
rather
temporary
than
permanent
.
They
originated
in
the
slopes
of
the
Buffalo
Ranges
,
a
chain
of
mountains
of
moderate
height
,
the
undulating
line
of
which
was
visible
on
the
horizon
.
It
was
resolved
to
camp
there
the
same
night
.
Ayrton
goaded
on
his
team
,
and
after
a
journey
of
thirty-five
miles
,
the
bullocks
arrived
,
somewhat
fatigued
.
The
tent
was
pitched
beneath
the
great
trees
,
and
as
night
had
drawn
on
supper
was
served
as
quickly
as
possible
,
for
all
the
party
cared
more
for
sleeping
than
eating
,
after
such
a
day
's
march
.
