The sun's rays were painfully reflected from the sand and crystals, and the party travelled on for some distance in silence. Suddenly the guide, who was a little in advance, stopped, and pointed downwards. He had reached the mouth of the cavern. Mr. Dalton now made preparation for his descent, by taking off most of his clothes, tying a handkerchief round his head, and putting on a linen blouse which he had brought for the purpose. The guide and his son were lowered down the hole, followed by Mr.... Dalton, Daireh, and one of the sailors. Candles were lit, and the guide, lying down on his face, crawled through a cleft in the rock, about eighteen inches high, and CROCODILE MUMMY-PITS. 175 quickly disappeared. The rest followed his example, and proceeding on their hands and knees for a few yards, reached a kind of gallery, some three or four feet high. It was intensely hot, and so filled with nauseous mephitic air, as to be scarcely endurable. The light of the candles was, however, but little affected, and while they burnt freely, there was no great danger.
