and save ourselves; but we would haye had
to sacrifice our boat, and we both thought too
much of the Daisy to lose her, if it could be
avoided.
Home was now only a few miles away,
and if we could reach it before we were over
taken by the mass of water that was ssurging
along in our wake, we would be safe; for
we could run in behind the point that there
projected far out into the river, and, protect
ed by it from the rushing food, would have
sufficient time to draw the ice boat into the
house which had been erected for its shelter,
before the ice in the vicinity would be SUBJ
merged or broken up. :,
As have already stated, the wind had
take advantage Of every breath of the brisk
breeze, we flew along at lively rate.
But fast as we went, the wall of water
behind us gradually drew nearer and nearer,
and threatened to soon overtake us.
Five or six minutes passed, and half the
distance which had lain between us and home
when this race with the waters commenced
was accomplished. Keeling over under the
at rate Of speed that approached very nearly
a mile in two minutes.
And yet the booming food gained rapidly
upon U.s.. and huge cracks appeared in the lee
on all sides Of us.
Should our runners strike stone or any
chance to be upon the ice, all would be up
with us; for the accident would be sure to cap
size the boat, and even if we were not injured
by being thrown upon the ice, it would be inn
possible for us to reach the shore on foot in
advance Of the angry waters.
Fortunately, however. we escaped all acct
dents, and in short time, came in sight of
the point ,l running in behind sha it. we made
the sail. and drew the Daisy within its shell
ter.
And we had accomplished the act none too
soon, for scarcely had the boat been made
safe, when the ice near the shore was flooded
with water to the depth Of foot or more,
while out in the middle of the river, rushing
torrent was sweeping madly along.
All that day the river was thick with float
ing ice; and, indeed, it was several days be-
fore the stream was free from the gittering
masses.
Fred and soon recovered from the ex-
citement which our race with the waters oc-
casioned, and though it may seem little
strange to some of my readers, our love for
ice boating was not diminished in the least
by our adventure, and we are impatiently
awaiting for this winters ice to form on the
river that we may renew our excursions on the
Daisy.
