Zeke will take the watch below regular; he sleeps like a dog, and the least noise in the world will wake him, so he will do very well.

Can you make out the Indian village across there from here ?" "Yes, quite plainly." "You have not been using your glass, I hope," Dave said in alarm.
"No, I forgot to bring it up with me.

But why shouldn't I ?" "Because if the sun were to flash on the glass or brasswork, it would be sartin to catch the eye of someone in the village, and if it did you may be sure they would send up to see what it was.

Still, if you can make out the village, it will save us the need for keeping watch in the daytime down below.

It is from there we have got to expect an attack the most, and if you saw them moving out strong, you could shout down to us and we should be ready for them.
