One of the epics Of the backwoods.
told by John G. Neihardt In 1.-THE Riv-
er and l." is the adventure of old
Hugh Glass. who was terribly mauled
by a grizzly up the Missouri. SO terri
by that the rest of the expedition
pushed on. leaving young friend with
several others to see the end. at
seemed plain that he would have to go
soon. So the young friend and the
others left the old man In the wilder
ness to finish the job by himself. They
took his weapons and FASTENED after
the main party, for the country was
hostile.
But one day old Glass woke up and
got one of his eyes open. And when
he saw how things stood he swore he
would live merely for the sake of kill
ing his false friend. He crawled to a
spring close by, where he found a
bush Of ripe bullberries. He waited
day after day for strength and finally
started out to crawl small matter of
hundred miles to the nearest fort.
And he did II too! Also he found bis
friend after much wandering-and for
gave him.
