I-01-a
|
Cousin Benedict
|
|
I-01-b
|
Captain Hull advanced to meet Mrs. Weldon and her party
|
|
I-02-a
|
Negoro
|
|
I-02-b
|
Dick and Little Jack
|
|
I-03-a
|
Negoro had approached without being noticed by any one
|
|
I-03-b
|
The dog began to swim slowly and with manifest weakness towards
the boat
|
|
I-04-a
|
Mrs. Weldon assisted by Nan and the ever active Dick Sands, was
doing everything in her power to restore consciousness to the poor
sufferers
|
|
I-04-b
|
The good-natured negroes were ever ready to lend a helping hand
|
|
I-05-a
|
"There you are, then, Master Jack!"
|
|
I-05-b
|
Jack cried out in the greatest excitement that Dingo knew how to
read
|
|
I-05-c
|
Negoro, with a threatening gesture that seemed half involuntary,
withdrew immediately to his accustomed quarters
|
|
I-06-a
|
"This Dingo is nothing out of the way"
|
|
I-06-b
|
Occasionally Dick Sands would take a pistol, and now and then a
rifle
|
|
I-06-c
|
"What a big fellow!"
|
|
I-07-a
|
The captain's voice came from the retreating boat
|
|
I-07-b
|
"I must get you to keep your eye upon that man"
|
|
I-08-a
|
The whale seemed utterly unconscious of the attack that was
threatening it
|
|
I-08-b
|
The boat was well-nigh full of water, and in imminent danger of
being capsized
|
|
I-08-c
|
There is no hope
|
|
I-09-a
|
"Oh, we shall soon be on shore!"
|
|
I-09-b
|
"Oh yes, Jack; you shall keep the wind in order"
|
|
I-10-a
|
All three of them fell flat upon the deck
|
|
I-10-b
|
Jack evidenced his satisfaction by giving his huge friend a hearty
shake of the hand
|
|
I-10-c
|
A light shadow glided stealthily along the deck
|
|
I-11-a
|
For half an hour Negoro stood motionless
|
|
I-12-a
|
Under bare poles
|
|
I-12-b
|
Quick as lightning, Dick Sands drew a revolver from his pocket
|
|
I-12-c
|
"There! look there!"
|
|
I-13-a
|
"You have acquitted yourself like a man"
|
|
I-13-b
|
They both examined the outspread chart
|
|
I-13-c
|
The sea was furious, and dashed vehemently upon the crags on
either hand
|
|
I-14-a
|
Surveying the shore with the air of a man who was trying to recall
some past experience
|
|
I-14-b
|
Not without emotion could Mrs. Weldon, or indeed any of them,
behold the unfortunate ship
|
|
I-14-c
|
The entomologist was seen making his way down the face of the
cliff at the imminent lisk of breaking his neck
|
|
I-15-a
|
"Good morning, my young friend"
|
|
I-15-b
|
"He is my little son"
|
|
I-15-c
|
They came to a tree to which a horse was tethered
|
|
I-16-a
|
The way across the forest could scarcely be called a path
|
|
I-16-b
|
Occasionally the soil became marshy
|
|
I-16-c
|
A halt for the night
|
|
I-16-d
|
Hercules himself was the first to keep watch
|
|
I-17-a
|
"Don't fire!"
|
|
I-17-b
|
A herd of gazelles dashed past him like a glowing cloud
|
|
I-17-c
|
A halt was made for the night beneath a grove of lofty trees
|
|
I-18-a
|
"Look here! here are hands, men's hands"
|
|
I-18-b
|
The man was gone, and his horse with him!
|
|
II-02-a
|
They were seated at the foot of an enormous banyan-tree
|
|
II-02-b
|
Both men, starting to their feet, looked anxiously around them
|
|
II-02-c
|
Dingo disappeared again amongst the bushes
|
|
II-03-a
|
"You must keep this a secret"
|
|
II-03-b
|
"Harris has left us"
|
|
II-03-c
|
The march was continued with as much rapidity as was consistent
with caution
|
|
II-04-a
|
It was a scene only too common in Central Africa
|
|
II-04-b
|
Another brilliant flash brought the camp once again into relief
|
|
II-04-c
|
One after another, the whole party made their way inside
|
|
II-05-a
|
Cousin Benedict's curiosity was awakened
|
|
II-05-b
|
The naturalist now fairly mounted on a favourite hobby
|
|
II-05-c
|
"My poor boy, I know everything"
|
|
II-06-a
|
They set to work to ascertain what progress the water was making
|
|
II-06-b
|
All fired simultaneously at the nearest boat
|
|
II-06-c
|
The giant clave their skulls with the butt end of his gun
|
|
II-07-a
|
The start was made
|
|
II-08-a
|
If ever the havildar strolled a few yards away, Bat took the
opportunity of murmuring a few words of encouragement to his poor
old father
|
|
II-08-b
|
The caravan had been attacked on the flank by a dozen or more
crocodiles
|
|
II-08-c
|
The creature that had sprung to my feet was Dingo
|
|
II-08-d
|
More slaves sick, and abandoned to take their chance
|
|
II-09-a
|
Adjoining the commercial quarter was the royal residence
|
|
II-09-b
|
With a yell and a curse, the American fell dead at his feet
|
|
II-10-a
|
Accompanied by Coïmbra, Alvez himself was one of the first
arrivals
|
|
II-11-a
|
The potentate beneath whose sway the country trembled for a
hundred miles round
|
|
II-11-b
|
Alvez advanced and presented the king with some fresh tobacco
|
|
II-11-c
|
The king had taken fire internally
|
|
II-12-a
|
"Your life is in my hands!"
|
|
II-12-b
|
All his energies were restored
|
|
II-13-a
|
Friendless and hopeless He contented himself with the permission
to go where he pleased within the limits of the palisade
|
|
II-13-b
|
"I suppose Weldon will not mind coming to fetch you?"
|
|
II-14-a
|
Dr. Livingstone
|
|
II-14-b
|
With none to guide him except a few natives
|
|
II-14-c
|
"You are Dr. Livingstone, I presume?"
|
|
II-15-a
|
The insufferable heat had driven all the residents within the
depôt indoors
|
|
II-15-b
|
Before long the old black speck was again flitting just above his
head
|
|
II-15-c
|
For that day at least Cousin Benedict had lost his chance of being
the happiest of entomologists
|
|
II-16-a
|
The entire crowd joined in
|
|
II-16-b
|
"Here they are, captain! both of them!!"
|
|
II-17-a
|
Hercules could leave the boat without much fear of detection
|
|
II-17-b
|
It was caused by a troop of a hundred or more elephants
|
|
II-18-a
|
He stood face to face with his foe
|
|
II-18-b
|
Instantly five or six negroes scrambled down the piles
|
|
II-19-a
|
Upon the smooth wood were two great letters in dingy red
|
|
II-19-b
|
The dog was griping the man by the throat
|
|
II-19-c
|
The bullet shattered the rudder-scull into fragments
|
