and went across the river on the inside

his gun to shoot, but was so close that the
bear struck his gun from his hand, and
knocked it clear out of his reach. He got
away from her, and she went back and
stepped around on top of Bill, who was
about halt dead. The third man opened on
her, and she would drop down every time
