Professor Rogers takes the ground that human antiquity is not proven from these relics, for two reasons: First, because the indications in the deposits inclosing the flints point clearly to a "turbulent diluvial action," and therefore it is possible for a violent incursion of the ocean to have taken place in the historic period, and to have mixed up the more recent works of man with the previously buried bones or relics of a pre-historic period; and secondly, because the different geological deposits do not necessarily prove time, but only succession, two schools of geology interpreting all similar phenomena differently, as relating to the time required.
They probably saw the impossibility of overtaking the fugitives by a direct pursuit, and paused to decide upon some different course of action. This was proven by what they did a few minutes later, for they separated into two divisions, one turning to the right and the other to the left.

His quest having proven vain, he betook himself to the Harmons', arriving there as the Mistress and the Master emerged upon the veranda in company with their hosts. In wild delight, Lad scampered up to the Mistress; his whole stately body wriggling in eager welcome, his tiny white forepaws patting at her feet, his muzzle thrusting itself into her cupped hand.
