chioting fact, there suddenly fell upon
my ear tho prolonged, dismal howl of a
roving wolf.
Tins was quickly answered by anotli
, and another, and still by others, in

wild, ferocious, though cowardly beasts,
were now gathering together into a
formidable pack which result, with

When about half way through the

the cause, I found it in tho fiery eyes nnd
dusky forms which wero keeping pace

Yes, tho wolves had actually reached
