Ayrton
waited
an
instant
before
answering
,
and
then
said
,
rather
evasively
:
"
I
have
no
wish
to
obtrude
my
opinions
.
What
I
do
is
for
our
common
good
,
and
I
am
ready
to
start
the
moment
his
honor
gives
the
signal
.
"
And
he
crossed
his
arms
and
was
silent
.
"
That
is
no
reply
,
Ayrton
,
"
said
Glenarvan
.
"
Tell
us
your
plan
,
and
we
will
discuss
it
.
What
is
it
you
propose
?
"
Ayrton
replied
in
a
calm
tone
of
assurance
:
"
I
propose
that
we
should
not
venture
beyond
the
Snowy
in
our
present
condition
.
It
is
here
we
must
wait
till
help
comes
,
and
this
help
can
only
come
from
the
Duncan
.
Let
us
camp
here
,
where
we
have
provisions
,
and
let
one
of
us
take
your
orders
to
Tom
Austin
to
go
on
to
Twofold
Bay
.
"
This
unexpected
proposition
was
greeted
with
astonishment
,
and
by
John
Mangles
with
openly-expressed
opposition
.
"
Meantime
,
"
continued
Ayrton
,
"
either
the
river
will
get
lower
,
and
allow
us
to
ford
it
,
or
we
shall
have
time
to
make
a
canoe
.
This
is
the
plan
I
submit
for
your
Lordship
's
approval
.
"
"
Well
,
Ayrton
,
"
replied
Glenarvan
,
"
your
plan
is
worthy
of
serious
consideration
.
The
worst
thing
about
it
is
the
delay
it
would
cause
;
but
it
would
save
us
great
fatigue
,
and
perhaps
danger
.
What
do
you
think
of
it
,
friends
?
"
"
Speak
your
mind
,
McNabbs
,
"
said
Lady
Helena
.
"
Since
the
beginning
of
the
discussion
you
have
been
only
a
listener
,
and
very
sparing
of
your
words
.
"
"
Since
you
ask
my
advice
,
"
said
the
Major
,
"
I
will
give
it
you
frankly
.
I
think
Ayrton
has
spoken
wisely
and
well
,
and
I
side
with
him
.
"
Such
a
reply
was
hardly
looked
for
,
as
hitherto
the
Major
had
been
strongly
opposed
to
Ayrton
's
project
.
Ayrton
himself
was
surprised
,
and
gave
a
hasty
glance
at
the
Major
.
However
,
Paganel
,
Lady
Helena
,
and
the
sailors
were
all
of
the
same
way
of
thinking
;
and
since
McNabbs
had
come
over
to
his
opinion
,
Glenarvan
decided
that
the
quartermaster
's
plan
should
be
adopted
in
principle
.
"
And
now
,
John
,
"
he
added
,
"
do
n't
you
think
yourself
it
would
be
prudent
to
encamp
here
,
on
the
banks
of
the
river
Snowy
,
till
we
can
get
some
means
of
conveyance
.
"
