the result of these prompt maneuvers
the oncoming mass of ice, which was
too large to be avoided, instead of
crashing into them amidships and
sinking the boat, struck them a quar-

to grind along the sides of the boat,

Bentley had thrown his pole over on

Of the first rover was broken short off
at the oarlock. If the others went the
situation Of the helpless boat would be
indeed hopeless. The general himself
came to the rescue. Promptly divining
the situation, he stepped forward to
Bentley's side and threw his own i'm

beads of sweat stood out on Bentley's
bronzed forehead as he renewed his
efforts. The stout hickory sapling bent
and cracked beneath the pressure of
the two men, but held on, and the boat
slowly but steadily began to swing
clear Of the ice. These two Homeric
men held it off by sheer strength until
the boat was in free water, and the
men, who had sat like statues in their
places, could once more use their oars.
The general stepped back into his
place, cool and calm as usual and en-
hrely unrufled by his great exertions.
Bentley wiped the sweat from his face
and turned and looked back at him in
admiration.
