She spoke very quietly. Perhaps
the most terrible truths of life are al
ways spoken in that same quiet voice.
Then both of them started across the
snow as fast as their unwieldy snow
shoes would permit.

Then the girl seized his hands and

She turned and sped at breakneck

to keep up with her. But 1t wasn't en-

dead log lay beneath the snow with a
broken limb stretched almost to Its
surface, and 1t caught her snowshoe.
The wood cracked sharply, and she fell
forward In the snow. But she wasn't
hurt, and the snowshoe itself, In spite
Of small crack In the wood, was still
serviceable.

through ii in an instant. The sheds
and other outbuildings were treated
with oil. And seeing that his work
was done, he called once to the prone
body of Lennox on the snow and
mnshed away into the silences.
Lennox's answer was not a curse
this time. Rather it was prayer, un-
uttered, and in his long years Lennox
had not prayed often. When he
prayed al all, the words were burning
fire, His prayer was that of Samson
