The bell-ringer still went on tolling the bell, so Sztolarik called up to him: "Stop tolling, you fool, can't you? Show us which way the Srankós' maize-field lies." The bell-ringer pointed to the right. "You run on in front, Gyuri, and try and get out of her what is the matter with her."
Behind the maize-field there was a hedge covered with long filaments of a golden-yellow color. These filaments, which were entirely devoid of leaves, grew all over the shrubs almost like a thick cloak. "What is the name of this wonderful plant?" asked Lucien. "It is the sacatlascale," answered Torribio. "It is a sort of dodder," added Sumichrast, "a plant of the Convolvulus family.
I think Martin has now become quite steady, and you might send him to Montreal, or anywhere else, without fear of his getting into the prison for making a disturbance... I see that a bear has been over into the maize-field last night." "What! did he climb the snake-fence?"
The train went on, now through long tunnels, now between precipices, now again over a rocky ridge, whence you looked down into the valley where the blue-green Rhone wound and twined its way between the rocks like a narrow ribbon. The speed seemed to be accelerating more and more. The first maize-field.
Fehér Károly and his brother, who lived down the Fekete Road, had taken a cut across the last maize-field the one situated immediately behind the inn kept by Ignácz Goldstein, and they had come across Béla's body, lying in the yard, with face upturned and eyes staring up sightlessly at the brilliant blue sky overhead. It was then close on eight o'clock in the morning.
Almost at the same instant, the hunter descried other objects in which he was more interested than in a village of Bechuanas, or anything belonging to them. Two large elephants were seen moving across the plain, in the direction of the maize-field. "Let us steal upon them silently," suggested Willem. "We need not all go. Two or three will be enough. Some one must stay with the cattle."
"Well, sir, I am ready," said Malachi, coming out with his deer-skin jacket in one hand and his rifle in the other. They walked to the maize-field on the other side of the river, and found that the trap had been successful, for a large bear lay dead at the foot of the snake-fence. "Yes, sir, I've got him," said Malachi. "But what was the trap?" said Henry.
