This
was
the
reason
why
the
greater
part
of
the
Tsalal
islanders
took
to
flight
,
headed
by
their
chief
,
Too
-
Wit
,
and
the
Wampos
,
who
are
the
leading
personages
of
Klock
-
Klock
.
It
was
under
these
extraordinary
circumstances
that
they
abandoned
their
island
,
whither
they
were
destined
never
to
return
.
Although
the
boats
carried
off
the
bulk
of
the
population
,
a
considerable
number
still
remained
on
Tsalal
,
having
no
means
of
escape
,
and
their
fate
accomplished
itself
quickly
.
Several
natives
who
were
bitten
by
Tiger
developed
hydrophobia
rapidly
,
and
attacked
the
others
.
Fearful
scenes
ensued
,
and
are
briefly
to
be
summed
up
in
one
dismal
statement
.
The
bones
we
had
seen
in
or
near
Klock
-
Klock
were
those
of
the
poor
savages
,
which
had
lain
there
bleaching
for
eleven
years
!
The
poor
dog
had
died
after
he
had
done
his
fell
work
,
in
a
corner
on
the
beach
,
where
Dirk
Peters
found
his
skeleton
and
the
collar
bearing
the
name
of
Arthur
Pym
.
Then
,
after
those
natives
who
could
not
escape
from
the
island
had
all
perished
in
the
manner
described
,
William
Guy
,
Patterson
,
Trinkle
,
Covin
,
Forbes
,
and
Sexton
ventured
to
come
out
of
the
labyrinth
,
where
they
were
on
the
verge
of
death
by
starvation
.
What
sort
of
existence
was
that
of
the
seven
survivors
of
the
expedition
during
the
eleven
ensuing
years
?
On
the
whole
,
it
was
more
endurable
than
might
have
been
supposed
.
The
natural
products
of
an
extremely
fertile
soil
and
the
presence
of
a
certain
number
of
domestic
animals
secured
them
against
want
of
food
;
they
had
only
to
make
out
the
best
shelter
for
themselves
they
could
contrive
,
and
wait
for
an
opportunity
of
getting
away
from
the
island
with
as
much
patience
as
might
be
granted
to
them
.
And
from
whence
could
such
an
opportunity
come
?
Only
from
one
of
the
chances
within
the
resources
of
Providence
.
Captain
William
Guy
,
Patterson
,
and
their
five
companions
descended
the
ravine
,
which
was
half
filled
with
the
fallen
masses
of
the
hill
-
face
,
amid
heaps
of
scoria
and
blocks
of
black
granite
.
Before
they
left
this
gorge
,
it
occurred
to
William
Guy
to
explore
the
fissure
on
the
right
into
which
Arthur
Pym
,
Dirk
Peters
,
and
Allen
had
turned
,
but
he
found
it
blocked
up
;
it
was
impossible
for
him
to
get
into
the
pass
.
Thus
he
remained
in
ignorance
of
the
existence
of
the
natural
or
artificial
labyrinth
which
corresponded
with
the
one
he
had
just
left
,
and
probably
communicated
with
it
under
the
dry
bed
of
the
torrent
.
The
little
company
,
having
passed
the
chaotic
barrier
that
intercepted
the
northern
route
,
proceeded
rapidly
towards
the
north
-
west
.
There
,
on
the
coast
,
at
about
three
miles
from
Klock
-
Klock
,
they
established
themselves
in
a
grotto
very
like
that
in
our
own
occupation
on
the
coast
of
Halbrane
Land
.
And
it
was
in
this
place
that
,
during
long
,
hopeless
years
,
the
seven
survivors
of
the
Jane
lived
,
as
we
were
about
to
do
ourselves
,
but
under
better
conditions
,
for
the
fertility
of
the
soil
of
Tsalal
furnished
them
with
resources
unknown
in
Halbrane
Land
.
In
reality
,
we
were
condemned
to
perish
when
our
provisions
should
be
exhausted
,
but
they
could
have
waited
indefinitely
—
and
they
did
wait
.
They
had
never
entertained
any
doubt
that
Arthur
Pym
,
Dirk
Peters
,
and
Allen
had
perished
,
and
this
was
only
too
true
in
Allen
’
s
case
.
How
,
indeed
,
could
they
ever
have
imagined
that
Pym
and
the
half
-
breed
had
got
hold
of
a
boat
and
made
their
escape
from
Tsalal
Island
?
