At the foot of the hill lay wasteland over which a few groups of our Cossack scouts were moving. For two days they drifted over this horrid wasteland. Below them they saw the dense vegetation of the jungle give place to the scantier growth upon the hillside, and then before them there spread the wide expanse of arid wastelands marked by the deep scarring of the narrow gorges that long-gone rivers had cut there in some forgotten age. |
