Then Bill stirred in his sleep. She
saw his eyes open. And his first
glance was toward her.
He flashed her smile, and she
tried piufully to answer it, How

They forced their way through the
evergreen thickets Of the river
bank. walking up the stream toward
the ford. He broke through the
brushy barriers with the might OF
his body. he made a trail for her in
the snow. The darkness depended
around them. The snow fell ever
heavier.
But they conquered al last. Part
~ by the feel under his feet partly
by his woodsman's instinct, Bill kept
to the moose trail that led from the
ford to the cabin. And the man was
swaying, drunkenly, when he
reached the door
There are blankets in there,

them out and take Off your wet
clothing and get under the covers.

She turned to obey. She heard
him take down an ak that had been
left hanging on the cabin walls and
heard his step in the snow as he be-
gan TO cut into kindling some OF
the pieces Of cordwood that were
heaped outside the door. She un-
dressed quickly, then lay shlvering
between the warm, heavy blankets.
In moment the man faltered in,
his arms heavy with wood. Then a
match cleaned in the gloom. She
watched him feed the fire with
strange, heavy motions
She dozed of. then wakened to
find him sitting on the edge Of her
bed, holding cup Of some steam
