slope. Peter leading. They anne &c

ton it began to move. 1t came straight
for Mr. Walker. who standing in the
steps cut for him. could not possibly get
out Of the way. He thought nothing
could possibly save him. But Peter met
the emergency by a wonderful feat OF
strength, In an instant he shifted him

and. sustaining his weight by the rope
that linked them, swung him ont Of the
