At
this
moment
the
fog
in
the
valley
lifted
,
and
enveloped
them
for
a
moment
in
a
damp
mist
,
and
at
three
hundred
feet
below
they
perceived
the
swarming
mass
of
frantic
natives
.
While
they
looked
they
were
seen
.
Renewed
howls
broke
forth
,
mingled
with
the
barking
of
dogs
,
and
the
whole
tribe
,
after
vainly
trying
to
scale
the
rock
of
Ware-Atoua
,
rushed
out
of
the
pah
,
and
hastened
by
the
shortest
paths
in
pursuit
of
the
prisoners
who
were
flying
from
their
vengeance
.
THE
summit
of
the
mountain
was
still
a
hundred
feet
above
them
.
The
fugitives
were
anxious
to
reach
it
that
they
might
continue
their
flight
on
the
eastern
slope
out
of
the
view
of
their
pursuers
.
They
hoped
then
to
find
some
practicable
ridge
that
would
allow
of
a
passage
to
the
neighboring
peaks
that
were
thrown
together
in
an
orographic
maze
,
to
which
poor
Paganel
's
genius
would
doubtless
have
found
the
clew
.

They
hastened
up
the
slope
,
spurred
on
by
the
loud
cries
that
drew
nearer
and
nearer
.
The
avenging
crowd
had
already
reached
the
foot
of
the
mountain
.
"
Courage
!
my
friends
,
"
cried
Glenarvan
,
urging
his
companions
by
voice
and
look
.
In
less
than
five
minutes
they
were
at
the
top
of
the
mountain
,
and
then
they
turned
to
judge
of
their
position
,
and
decide
on
a
route
that
would
baffle
their
pursuers
.
From
their
elevated
position
they
could
see
over
Lake
Taupo
,
which
stretched
toward
the
west
in
its
setting
of
picturesque
mountains
.
On
the
north
the
peaks
of
Pirongia
;
on
the
south
the
burning
crater
of
Tongariro
.
But
eastward
nothing
but
the
rocky
barrier
of
peaks
and
ridges
that
formed
the
Wahiti
ranges
,
the
great
chain
whose
unbroken
links
stretch
from
the
East
Cape
to
Cook
's
Straits
.
They
had
no
alternative
but
to
descend
the
opposite
slope
and
enter
the
narrow
gorges
,
uncertain
whether
any
outlet
existed
.

Glenarvan
could
not
prolong
the
halt
for
a
moment
.
Wearied
as
they
might
be
,
they
must
fly
or
be
discovered
.
"
Let
us
go
down
!
"
cried
he
,
"
before
our
passage
is
cut
off
.
"
But
just
as
the
ladies
had
risen
with
a
despairing
effort
,
McNabbs
stopped
them
and
said
:
