Thus
they
almost
unconsciously
descended
this
ravine
,
which
even
in
broad
daylight
would
have
been
considered
impracticable
.
The
stones
rolled
and
sparkled
like
fiery
balls
when
they
crossed
through
the
gleams
of
light
.
Harding
was
first
--
Ayrton
last
.
On
they
went
,
step
by
step
.
Now
they
slid
over
the
slippery
rock
;
then
they
struggled
to
their
feet
and
scrambled
on
.
At
last
the
wire
touched
the
rocks
on
the
beach
.
The
colonists
had
reached
the
bottom
of
the
basalt
cliff
.
There
appeared
a
narrow
ridge
,
running
horizontally
and
parallel
with
the
sea
.
The
settlers
followed
the
wire
along
it
.
They
had
not
gone
a
hundred
paces
when
the
ridge
by
a
moderate
incline
sloped
down
to
the
level
of
the
sea
.
The
engineer
seized
the
wire
and
found
that
it
disappeared
beneath
the
waves
.
His
companions
were
stupefied
.
A
cry
of
disappointment
,
almost
a
cry
of
despair
,
escaped
them
!
Must
they
then
plunge
beneath
the
water
and
seek
there
for
some
submarine
cavern
?
In
their
excited
state
they
would
not
have
hesitated
to
do
it
.
The
engineer
stopped
them
.
He
led
his
companions
to
a
hollow
in
the
rocks
,
and
there
--
"
We
must
wait
,
"
said
he
.
"
The
tide
is
high
.
At
low
water
the
way
will
be
open
.
"
