in the big Indian dugout manned by a crew of Indian canoe men. Pedro, with his dugout and crew, are following a half-mile behind. At a fork in the jungle river, they approach a settlement, an Indian trading post managed by an Englishman named Bennett Morton. The The travelers make plans to go ashore and visit this white trader.

But before reaching the Little River loading platform, it is noticed that their arrival has not been announced. In the distance, the jungle drums take up their mournful beat, a stealthy, savvy gendien a scene skulking away into the bush.

From the river it appears that all is not well. The station seems deserted. The place is altogether too quiet to be safe. Mr. Noisas is waiting on Pedro's canoe to arrive. Let's shot a pager to get his men to lean on the paddles. He isn't hurrying at all because he is yet doesn't suspect anything wrong

And we won't shout at all no use giving the alarm any shouting we would do might start something that would be hard to stop But what do you think happened mr. Nois after all we aren't sure that anything's wrong yet?
