first forward, striking him like
catapult, with the full weight of my
body. He went over, crashing against
the window ledge, and dropped limp
on the floor. the weapon flying from
his hand undischarged. Without wait

by the violence of the blow struck,
erept across, and secured it; then
struggled to my feet, reeiing dizzily
from pain, everything blurred before
me-. The girl was erect, grasping the

to keep me erect, gazing at Franzen's
