Among the war materials captured

CHAPTER II.

The Tragedy on Sun Reek
All that day Kaxan guarded the top
Of the Sun Rock. Fate. and the fear
and brutality Of masters, had hereto.
fore kept him from fatherhood, and he
was puzzled. Something told him now
that he belonged to the Sun Rock, and
not to the cabin. The call that came
to him from over the plain was not 80
strong. At dusk Gray Wolf came out
from her retreat. and skunk to his side.
whimpering. and nipped gently at his
shaggy neck. 1t was the old instinct of
his fathers that made him respond BY
caressing Gray VOLTS face with his
tongue. Then Gray VOLTS Jaws opened,
and she laughed in short painting
breaths, as II she had been hard run.
She was happy, and as they heard
little snuffiing sound from between the
rocks, Kazan wagged his tall, and GRAY
Wolf darted back to her young.
The babyish cry and its effect upon
Gray Wolf taught Kazan HIS first les
son in fatherhood. Instinct again told
him that Gray Wolf could not 20 down
to the hunt with him now-that she
must stay Mt the top of the Sun Rock.
So when the moon rose he went down
alone. and toward dawn returned with
a big white rabbit between his laws. II
was the wild in him that made him do
this, and Gray Wolf ate ravenousIy.
Then he knew that each night here
