Digitized by Google CHAPTER XI BEYOND THE BARRIER Apparently now reconciled to his lot, Cristobal, in the morning, remonstrated no longer, though his reswung hammock had proved an eloquent telltale on my daylight return, suggesting, if it did not actually reveal, frustrated desire and at least indorsing the wisdom of my precaution in putting the canoe safely out of reach. It began to look as if both of my eyes were to be kept busy — one on my crew and the other for " Indios bravos." As we were,... according to my closest figuring, about a day or two at most from the Barrier, I de- cided upon making this camp our home base for the dash into the unknown, and here to cache everything not absolutely necessary. It was not a long list, for my belongings were few, comprising all clothing except what I stood in — notebook, pipe, tobacco, medicine kit, camera (which had been of little use to me at any time in the almost continuous rain), the dried fish, and coffee. In fact, everything except my revolver, rifle — with ammunition — sheath knife, field-glasses, watch, match-box, enough man- dioca to last for about ten days, hammock, tooth- brush, a thong of buckskin with which I am always equipped in the wilderness, and, of course, the little buckskin bag containing the gold sov- ereigns.
