I made friendly signs, but he ran off shouting, and apparently much afraid.

He and several others ran up and joined the natives on the cliff summit, and then all made off.

We turned, and steering East-North-East for six miles, and then east for about fourteen miles, the last few miles being miserable spinifex country, we camped, with poor feed, amongst some spinifex ranges.
