The Speech of Monkeys
·
R. L. Garner
88
At
other
times
I
have
approached
the
house
from
another
direction,
and
come
within
a
few
feet
of
their
cage,
where
I
have
stood
for
some
time,
in
order
to
ascertain
whether
they
were
aware
of
my
presence;
and
on
a
few
occasions
have
slipped
into
the
house
with
the
crowd,
and
they
did
not
detect
my
presence
except
by
sight.
It
is
evident,
if
they
depended
upon
the
sense
of
smell,
that
they
would
have
discovered
my
presence
when
so
near
them,
although
they
could
not
see
me.
But
no
matter
what
the
condition
of
the
weather,
or
how
many
people
are
present,
the
instant
one
of
them
sees
me
he
spreads
the
news,
and
every
inmate
of
the
cage
rushes
to
the
window
and
begins
to
scream
at
the
top
of
his
voice.
If
their
sense
of
smell
was
such
as
to
enable
them
to
detect
my
presence
as
a
dog
would,
it
is
reasonable
also
that
the
monkey
which
possessed
the
most
sensitive
organs
would
have
been
the
first
to
detect
it
in
each
case;
whereas,
sometimes
one
monkey,
and
sometimes
another,
made
the
discovery.
