| About midnight Tom arrived with a boiled ham and a few trifles, and stopped in a dense undergrowth on a small bluff overlooking the meeting-place. A low bluff ran diagonally across one end of the mesa, and in the face of this bluff were the mouths of many caves. High up the bluff we climbed, higher than all the other caves, to a tiny crevice that could not be seen from the ground. |
