When passing a thiekrt a shot was
fired at them, tlio ball lodging in the

Adam had litno to reach cover be

t:ao a series of tactics, such as were
rarely witnessed in these wilds, for
two of the mo.st noiod warrior of tho
day woro each atriving lo gain an ad
vintage over the other.
Pool by foot they drow ocaror to
each olhnr, leaping from treo to trco.
from slump to atump, or lock to rock,
as the cane might bo.
Imporcopliblo t each oiher, per

facing each other, but somo twenty

With a shock they boib met mid

as is rarely witnessed between two of
