bushes and for some little distance they were not
seen again. Johnson happened to glance behind
him. and saw a gray form running along in the
bush M the side Of the road Another and another
crossed an open space, SO the men put the WElp
To their horses
This was the turning point. With yelps and yellS
the wolves came out into the open and gulloped
after the sleigh. It race for me-
the men being uuarmcd and practically helpless
All they could 30 was 20 Lash their horses.
Gradually the wolves gained on the team. ana
as they came within reach Johnson oe2s at the
wolves while Amey sashed the horses For three
miles the race continued. Each moment the men
thought their end had come, but when the horses
had almost fallen with exhaustion tney reached
a settlement I'm Stony Mountain. and the wolves
skunk OF into the bush.
Many residents the rctreatinS pack, and the
torn robes hanging from the back OF the sleigh
were evidence Of the battle which the men had
gone through.
The winter has been very severe one. the snow
being too deep for wolves to obtain food They
have been forced 20 settlements. where cattle and
