The quiet life was interrupted by

Mitchell was ordered to take two

Dunn could not imagine what 1t was

wished to see the man he most hated
In Marie's presence, so as TO be more
sure of his bearings. Whatever the
motive, he selected Dunn, and he

hankering after the military life
when he went out to Calgary two

Now he was in for several years,
and cursing his luck daily. What he
liked best was the lonely patrols up

He had met Marie Dufour there,
