They
were
the
cannibals
from
the
lake
village
.
For
eight
days
they
had
followed
the
right
bank
of
the
river
.
Under
that
thatch
,
which
was
torn
by
the
stakes
of
their
village
,
they
had
discovered
the
fugitives
,
that
is
to
say
,
a
sure
prey
for
them
,
because
the
barrier
of
the
falls
would
sooner
or
later
oblige
those
unfortunate
ones
to
land
on
one
or
the
other
side
of
the
river
.
Dick
Sand
saw
that
he
was
lost
,
but
he
asked
himself
if
the
sacrifice
of
his
life
might
not
save
his
companions
.
Master
of
himself
,
standing
in
the
front
of
the
boat
,
his
gun
pointed
,
he
held
the
cannibals
in
check
.
Meanwhile
,
they
snatched
away
the
thatch
,
under
which
they
expected
to
find
other
victims
.
When
they
saw
that
the
young
novice
alone
had
fallen
into
their
hands
,
they
betrayed
their
disappointment
by
frightful
cries
.
A
boy
of
fifteen
among
ten
!

But
,
then
,
one
of
those
natives
stood
up
,
his
arm
stretched
toward
the
left
bank
,
and
pointed
to
Mrs.
Weldon
and
her
companions
,
who
,
having
seen
all
and
not
knowing
what
to
do
,
had
just
climbed
up
the
bank
!
Dick
Sand
,
not
even
dreaming
of
himself
,
waited
for
an
inspiration
from
Heaven
that
might
save
them
.
The
boat
was
going
to
be
pushed
out
into
the
stream
.
The
cannibals
were
going
to
cross
the
river
.
They
did
not
budge
before
the
gun
aimed
at
them
,
knowing
the
effect
of
fire-arms
.
But
one
of
them
had
seized
the
oar
;
he
managed
it
like
a
man
who
knew
how
to
use
it
,
and
the
boat
crossed
the
river
obliquely
.
Soon
it
was
not
more
than
a
hundred
feet
from
the
left
bank
.

"
Flee
!
"
cried
Dick
Sand
to
Mrs.
Weldon
.
"
Flee
!
"
Neither
Mrs.
Weldon
nor
Hercules
stirred
.
One
would
say
that
their
feet
were
fastened
to
the
ground
.
Flee
!
Besides
,
what
good
would
it
do
?
In
less
than
an
hour
they
would
fall
into
the
hands
of
the
cannibals
!
