Hedecided to follow them and to find out, if possible, the object of theirjourney.On the sides of the column, as if to keep it in order, a few of theinsects sped to and fro. After marching for about a quarter of an hour,the army halted before an ant-hill, the home of a colony of small, blackants. These swarmed out to meet the red ones, and, to Huber's surprise,a combat, short but fierce, took place at the foot of the hill.A small number of the blacks fought bravely to the last, but the restsoon fled, panic-stricken, through the gates farthest from thebattle-field, carrying away some of their young. They seemed to know itwas the young ants that the invaders were seeking. The red warriorsquickly forced their way into the tiny city and returned, loaded withchildren of the blacks.Carrying their living booty, the kidnappers left the pillaged town andstarted toward their home, whither Huber followed them. Great was hisastonishment when, at the threshold of the red ants' dwelling, he sawnumbers of black ants come forward to receive the young captives and towelcome them--children of their own race, doomed to be bond-servants ina strange land.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
