few seconds and Baree's dazed senses
were returning. He saw them clearly
as they came across the open—a new

a final wail he darted back into the
deep shadows of the trees. He had
shivered at sight of the hear and the

It was a shock to have the earth go
out from under his feet like that, but
Baree did not yelp. The wolf was
dominant in him again, It urged him
to remain where he was, making no
move, no sound--scarcely breathing.
The voices were over him; the strange
feet almost stumbled in the hole where
he lay. Looking out of Lis dark hid:

enemies. It was Nepeese, the Willow.
She was standing so that a last glow
of the day fell upon her face. Baree
did not take his eyes from her. Above
