cleared the dead cattle were piled
and packed in and around that town
like dry leaves in fence corner. On
the south side of every building where
they had sought protection from the
bitter wind, the carcases were piled
to the ewes. The strong ones had
trampled the weak in their struggle
to obtain warmpth and shelter and
then as their strength failed them
had been themselves overcome.
The cold was not the worst feature
of their exposure either. for on full
