"I thought of it," answered Harry. "But I[p. 72] learned from Muro that he knew where they made their homes!"
"Then he must have watched them, as John suggested!"
"No; one of the men told him just before he left."

"I think he does."
During the descent from the hill the ocean was visible directly to the east. Both, at the same instant, caught sight of a sail. They gasped in surprise, as they gazed at the unusual spectacle.
"I would like to know who that can be," queried Harry. "Let us tell John and then get something so we can signal it."
