"where there are pistol shots, there are men. where there are men, there is food," he thought. but what kind of men, he wondered, in so forbidding a place? an unbroken front of snarled and ragged jungle fringed the shore.
he saw no sign of a trail through the closely knit web of weeds and trees; it was easier to go along the shore, and rainsford floundered along by the water. not far from where he had landed, he stopped.
some wounded thing, by the evidence a large animal, had thrashed about in the underbrush; the jungle weeds were crushed down and the moss was lacerated; one patch of weeds was stained crimson. a small, glittering object not far away caught rainsford's eye and he picked it up. it was an empty cartridge.
