the impression of the grizzly adventure
gradually became weaker, and after time
their old passion for poaching gained the
victory, and they went back to the mere
just as if nothing had happened.
Two years afterwards Skokan dlsap-
peared. In the autumn fieshless skele-
ton was found at the bottom of one of the
big meres, and it was generally supposed
to be the remains of the limping poacher.
Novak and Jarosh knew that it was so.
They had seen the shot fired at Skokan
standing up to his armpits in the water.
The two surviving poachers, when they
were old, were rheumatic, the consequence
of the frequent wading at night in the icy
meres and the wandering home in wet
clothes through the freezing morning
mists to their distant homes Bent double
and scarcely able to move their joints, the
old sinners, unable any longer to poach on
a large scale, would betake themselves to
the neighboring streams and catch small
fish with rod and meanwhile narrate to
each other the great catches of the days of
their youth. Sitting on the bank under
the shadow of the willows watching with
their dim eyes the float dancing in the
water they talked Of their former mates
who were now gone ''there. y They re-
minded each other of how they had come
to 90 ''there," and if ever Zinka and his
fate came into their memories, they shook
their heads, remarking that ''there was
some hitch in it that time"

down to question Zinka's wife, but could
ascertain nothing except that Zinka had
come home in the night from somewhere
wounded and had soon afterward died.
