John
Mangles
had
the
clay
watered
to
loosen
it
,
but
it
was
of
no
use
.
After
renewed
vigorous
efforts
,
men
and
animals
stopped
.
Unless
the
vehicle
was
taken
to
pieces
,
it
would
be
impossible
to
extricate
it
from
the
mud
;
but
they
had
no
tools
for
the
purpose
,
and
could
not
attempt
such
a
task
.
However
,
Ayrton
,
who
was
for
conquering
this
obstacle
at
all
costs
,
was
about
to
commence
afresh
,
when
Glenarvan
stopped
him
by
saying
:
"
Enough
,
Ayrton
,
enough
.
We
must
husband
the
strength
of
our
remaining
horse
and
bullock
.
If
we
are
obliged
to
continue
our
journey
on
foot
,
the
one
animal
can
carry
the
ladies
and
the
other
the
provisions
.
They
may
thus
still
be
of
great
service
to
us
.
"
"
Very
well
,
my
Lord
,
"
replied
the
quartermaster
,
un-yoking
the
exhausted
beasts
.
"
Now
,
friends
,
"
added
Glenarvan
,
"
let
us
return
to
the
encampment
and
deliberately
examine
our
situation
,
and
determine
on
our
course
of
action
.
"
After
a
tolerably
good
breakfast
to
make
up
for
their
bad
night
,
the
discussion
was
opened
,
and
every
one
of
the
party
was
asked
to
give
his
opinion
.
The
first
point
was
to
ascertain
their
exact
position
,
and
this
was
referred
to
Paganel
,
who
informed
them
,
with
his
customary
rigorous
accuracy
,
that
the
expedition
had
been
stopped
on
the
37th
parallel
,
in
longitude
147
degrees
53
minutes
,
on
the
banks
of
the
Snowy
River
.
"
What
is
the
exact
longitude
of
Twofold
Bay
?
"
asked
Glenarvan
.
"
One
hundred
and
fifty
degrees
,
"
replied
Paganel
;
"
two
degrees
seven
minutes
distant
from
this
,
and
that
is
equal
to
seventy-five
miles
.
"
"
And
Melbourne
is
?
"
"
Two
hundred
miles
off
at
least
.
