This
action
explained
why
she
had
been
encountered
so
far
out
of
her
course
,
for
the
"
Waldeck
,
"
having
left
Melbourne
,
ought
to
be
found
in
much
lower
latitude
.
282
During
the
ten
days
which
elapsed
between
the
collision
and
the
moment
when
the
"
Pilgrim
"
arrived
in
sight
of
the
shipwrecked
vessel
the
five
blacks
were
sustained
by
some
food
which
they
had
found
in
the
office
of
the
landing-place
.
But
,
not
being
able
to
penetrate
into
the
steward
's
room
,
which
the
water
entirely
covered
,
they
had
had
no
spirits
to
quench
their
thirst
,
and
they
had
suffered
cruelly
,
the
water
casks
fastened
to
the
deck
having
been
stove
in
by
the
collision
.
Since
the
night
before
,
Tom
and
his
companions
,
tortured
by
thirst
,
had
become
unconscious
.
283
Such
was
the
recital
which
Tom
gave
,
in
a
few
words
,
to
Captain
Hull
.
There
was
no
reason
to
doubt
the
veracity
of
the
old
black
.
His
companions
confirmed
all
that
he
had
said
;
besides
,
the
facts
pleaded
for
the
poor
men
.

Another
living
being
,
saved
on
the
wreck
,
would
doubtless
have
spoken
with
the
same
sincerity
if
it
had
been
gifted
with
speech
.
285
It
was
that
dog
,
that
the
sight
of
Negoro
seemed
to
affect
in
such
a
disagreeable
manner
.
There
was
in
that
some
truly
inexplicable
antipathy
.
286
Dingo
--
that
was
the
name
of
the
dog
--
belonged
to
that
race
of
mastiffs
which
is
peculiar
to
New
Holland
.
It
was
not
in
Australia
,
however
,
that
the
captain
of
the
"
Waldeck
"
had
found
it
.
Two
years
before
Dingo
,
wandering
half
dead
of
hunger
,
had
been
met
on
the
western
coast
of
Africa
,
near
the
mouth
of
the
Congo
.
287
The
captain
of
the
"
Waldeck
"
had
picked
up
this
fine
animal
,
who
,
being
not
very
sociable
,
seemed
to
be
always
regretting
some
old
master
,
from
whom
he
had
been
violently
separated
,
and
whom
it
would
be
impossible
to
find
again
in
that
desert
country
.
S.
V.
--
those
two
letters
engraved
on
his
collar
--
were
all
that
linked
this
animal
to
a
past
,
whose
mystery
one
would
seek
in
vain
to
solve
.

Dingo
,
a
magnificent
and
robust
beast
,
larger
than
the
dogs
of
the
Pyrenees
,
was
then
a
superb
specimen
of
the
New
Holland
variety
of
mastiffs
.
When
it
stood
up
,
throwing
its
head
back
,
it
equaled
the
height
of
a
man
.
Its
agility
--
its
muscular
strength
,
would
be
sufficient
for
one
of
those
animals
which
without
hesitation
attack
jaguars
and
panthers
,
and
do
not
fear
to
face
a
bear
.
Its
long
tail
of
thick
hair
,
well
stocked
and
stiff
like
a
lion
's
tail
,
its
general
hue
dark
fawn-color
,
was
only
varied
at
the
nose
by
some
whitish
streaks
.
This
animal
,
under
the
influence
of
anger
,
might
become
formidable
,
and
it
will
be
understood
that
Negoro
was
not
satisfied
with
the
reception
given
him
by
this
vigorous
specimen
of
the
canine
race
.
289
Meanwhile
,
Dingo
,
if
it
was
not
sociable
,
was
not
bad
.
It
seemed
rather
to
be
sad
.
An
observation
which
had
been
made
by
old
Tom
on
board
the
"
Waldeck
"
was
that
this
dog
did
not
seem
to
like
blacks
.
It
did
not
seek
to
harm
them
,
but
certainly
it
shunned
them
.
May
be
,
on
that
African
coast
where
it
wandered
,
it
had
suffered
some
bad
treatment
from
the
natives
.
So
,
though
Tom
and
his
companions
were
honest
men
,
Dingo
was
never
drawn
toward
them
290
During
the
ten
days
that
the
shipwrecked
dog
had
passed
on
the
"
Waldeck
,
"
it
had
kept
at
a
distance
,
feeding
itself
,
they
knew
not
how
,
but
having
also
suffered
cruelly
from
thirst
.
