While this was being done the navigator of the Cibola was busycarrying chunks of broken rock from the margin of the little lake, and in a short time the boys above were hauling away on the rope andlifting aboard new ballast. With each bag of it the Cibola sanklower and lower, until finally, when it was almost balanced in theair, Ned easily drew the balloon to the ground. But the landing was not yet finished. Not a passenger in the craftcould step ashore until Ned had added more stone. But when ...enoughof this had been lifted up to the hands above, and Elmer couldalight, the two willing workers on the ground soon made it possiblefor the other boys to spring overboard. Then the four of themloaded enough more rock on the bridge to take the place of thestores to be landed. There were not many things that could be left: water, and half theprovisions and, preserved goods; a few cooking utensils; blankets, an extra compass, two revolvers, a hatchet and saw; a light silktent; matches and candles, a medicine case, ammunition, and, to makeway for the gasoline that it was hoped might be recovered, all theextra oil on board--for the reservoirs yet contained an ample supplyto make the trip back to the scene of Elmer's attack.
