Both had been too busy in bartering and carousing with King Dingo Bingo and his boon companions and the irresponsible hands who had been set about the work were half-drunk while executing it many of the casks that had been emptied of the sea-water were found to have been only partially refilled; and it was also discovered that more than half of the others had never been emptied at all!
The aguara is smaller and has no mane; it is like the dingo in size, but slimmer and with a sharper nose, and lias a much brighter red colour. At night when camping out I have heard its dismal screams, but the screamer was sought in vain; while from the gauchos of the frontier I could only learn that it is a harmless, shy, solitary animal, that ever flies to remoter wilds from its destroyer, man.
But, as a matter of fact, though it was true he would cheerfully have fought all night at his mate's bidding, Finn was none the less glad now to have peace and rest, for the dingo champions' methods of attack were marvellously swift and telling, and the wounds they had inflicted, while not very serious, were certainly numerous and sore.
The man went on to explain that he had arranged to travel north with a string of camels which was leaving the township the same afternoon. They would go as far as Dingo Creek and wait there for the train which was being sent down from Oodnadatta. "That's the best arrangement I can make," said Peter. "If you'd care to come along, now's your chance. You won't have much to do with camels, anyway.
"And those guaras, they bite?" asked little Jack. "Bah! Dingo would make only one mouthful of those beasts!" "Never mind," replied Jack, with a last yawn; "guaras are wolves, because they are called wolves!" And with that Jack fell asleep peaceably in Nan's arms, beside the trunk of the mango. Mrs.
Once they got the casks filled, they could return to Africa, and King Dingo was the man to find them a fresh cargo. He was not so easily broken up as that came to. If he himself was short, he had friends in Brazil ay, and in Portsmouth, too who would soon find him the rhino."
Be that as it may, it is certain that the Englishman had sent the three Kroomen to warn King Dingo Bingo of his danger for there was no secret made of this fact on board the Pandora. The Kroomen had ventured round the coast in a small sail-boat, and entered by the mouth of the river, having performed most part of the dangerous voyage in the night.
And the gesture in Finn's direction, with which they turned away from the rock, was as near to being a salutation, an obeisance, as anything that mortal dingo has ever achieved.
Those were her words, but what she really said in her mind was: "Who would think he was a draper?" Francie was aroused from her Sunday afternoon snooze on the drawing-room sofa. "What IS the matter with that dog?" she complained pettishly. "Surely, after howling like a starved dingo all night be quiet, Pepper! One of you is enough." Rose's terrier was up and fidgeting, with pricked ears.
These stony fish mazes are fully two hundred yards in length, substantially built; some huge boulders are amongst the stones which form these most intricate labyrinthine fish yards, which as traps are eminently successful, many thousands of Murray cod and other fish being caught in them. Dingo pups, in the days when dingoes were plentiful, were a most esteemed delicacy.
