A savage had swum off to the boat while he was occupied with his enemy on the point, got possession, and was using these means to urge it to the shore.

"It cannot be, Hetty," said Judith, when a thorough search had satisfied them both that no ark was to be found; "it cannot be that the Indians have rafted, or swum off and surprised our friends as they slept?"
– Cela est impossible, Hetty, dit Judith quand elle fut convaincue que l’arche n’était plus où elle l’avait laissée ; il est impossible que les Indiens soient arrivés sur un radeau ou à la nage, et aient surpris nos amis pendant qu’ils dormaient.
