Out OF the darkness Pierre leaned
forward. The knife blow flashed past
Hilary, who got Pierre by the arms.
They began to wrestle as they had
done that day in the woods. Here
Pierre was Hilary's superior; his
physical strength was greater, though

though Hilary had beaten him that day

He heard Leblanc and Pierre run

calculations, which were subconscious

night. So, now, he calculated that the

up fragment of rotten harness which
had fallen to the floor beside one of
the horse-boxes. He wheeled toward
Leblanc, who twisted his body to
meet him; and then. as Pierre rushed
In from behind, wheeled again and
brought down the harness strap upon
his head.
Pierre reeled, and once again Hilary
leaped and caught him under the chin.
But this time he was not quick enough
to repeat his former maneuver. Lee

Leblanc managed to twist the knife so
that Its edge was against Hilary's side,

Hilary backed suddenly, jarrlng Le-
