were strange pair, these two. They had
been constantly together for five years.
They had met in the lumber regions
of upper Michigan, where the boss
had saved the others life when a couple
of canthook men had almost overpow-
er>d him in fight just after the seasons

forth, gold mad, to tempt the Alaskan
waste, where they had suffered and
mushed their dogs together. Together
they had grappled with terrific odds, and
their friendship, tested by grim forces.

Number Two was afraid of him. He
drove the men to their toll with a pitt
less sangfroid, cursing them endlessly;
and they leaped to the call, and broke all
records for railroad construction; for in
their hearts there reigned a mighty love
for this man, because he was strong, be-
cause he succeeded where others failed.

beginning to mistrust the men. It's an
awful thing for booze fighter to stick
