Dusky, the biggest OF the four chill

he had done everything he could think
So when his sisters and brother turned

and his nose told him that his mother
had been up on top OF that big stone.
This was q very great discovery, and
Duslzy sat down to think It ovor. On
the ground her trail ended some three
feet from the big stone. In that three
