She darted away like deer. I soon

climbing just ahead Of us and knew

YAQUELINE once more became an
object Of undivided interest. The
men crowded about her. staring
at her, uttering EXPLANATIONS o:
admiration, vainly seeking a way to
do her honor. Presently they cut sap.

nature had impaired a spark Of art,

songs, her stories. their fire lighted
faces standing out Of the gloom in
grim contrast with her refined beauty.
The captain, with his superior breed
Ing. served as link between her and
his men, keeping them in check and
stimulating their admiration by his

was quick to suggest new ones, and oc.
