1t was then that one Of the guards

ape-man a vicious blow across the

Zu-tag hunted alone far from tn

r great ape. Zu-tag (Blg-ncck) was
, young bull but recently arrived a
maturity. He was large, powerful. an
ferocious and at the same time ia
above the average OF his kind in In
telligence, as was denoted by n fllle
and less receding forehead. Alread
Go-lat saw in this young ape pos
sible contender for the laurels OF m
, lSinGship and consequently the oil
bull looked upon Zu-tag with jealous
, and disfavor. II was for this reason
possibly as much as another that Hu
p tag hunted so often alone: but II wa

him to wander far afield away fror

the great apes. One of the result
of this habit was a greatly increase
