He had noticed it casually be- fore, but now, looking at it man- carefully. he suddenly realised, that it was the back of a human skull! After he had identified it, he could see that the remainder of the skeleton was lying sub- merged ln the muddy water, par- allel with the boat. and no

He had to clamber over the side again it few yards down to pick up the water-breaker, but once this was aboard he continued to haul and push the boat down the winding waterway till a last twist in its tortuous channel brought him in sight of the open sea.
He had got over the first ugly shock by then, and as he i.ir-zi the boat up again to the trunk of a young mangrove which was growing up out of the water, hr- refiecied grimly that but for sheer good fortune he might him- self have presented some such sight before another two days had passed. If he had failed to find the boat he must have died here in this ghastly swamp, and
