the way straight into that muir.
derous fire.
The man next to Bressac
dropped, as they ran side by
side. 1t was janet. He was
Bressac's best friend. The
man just ahead of Bressac
fell, rose, staggered forward,
jumped for the crater, and
tumbled over and over down
inside 1t.
That was Lombardin. There
were half dozen of them rushing
together right at the edge of the
crater, when Bressac suddenly
ceased the remember, to know, to
feel, to exist!
When he comes to that point his
brows always knit; then he closes
his eyes in exhaustion for three
or four minutes. AS soon as his
mind has rested itself, 1t goes back
to him in the fog with Janet and
Maupeta, and from then on, al
ways including Coulon eating
bread, to the edge of the crater
where he knows nothing more.
All this Is automatic. Bressat
has no interest In 1t, or In any.
thing else.
