Seeing
that
the
boy
had
a
protector,
Paul
got
the
long
stick,
and
from
a
safe
distance
began
to
belabor
the
Wolf,
The
grizzly
creature
raged
at
the
end
of
the
chain,
but,
though
he
parried
many
cruel
blows
by
seizing
the
stick
in
his
teeth,
he
was
suffering
severely,
when
Paul
realized
that
Jim,
whose
tongue
had
not
been
idle,
was
fumbling
away
with
nervous
fingers
to
set
the
Wolf
loose,
and
soon
would
succeed.
Indeed,
it
would
have
been
done
already
but
for
the
strain
that
the
Wolf
kept
on
the
chain.
The
thought
of
being
in
the
yard
at
the
mercy
of
the
huge
animal
that
he
had
so
enraged,
gave
the
brave
Paul
a
thrill
of
terror.
Jim's
wheedling
voice
was
heard--"Hold
on
now,
Wolfie;
back
up
just
a
little,
and
you
shall
have
him.
Now
do;
there's
a
good
Wolfie"--that
was
enough;
the
Fiddler
fled
and
carefully
closed
all
doors
behind
him.
Thus
the
friendship
between
Jim
and
his
pet
grew
stronger,
and
the
Wolf,
as
he
developed
his
splendid
natural
powers,
gave
daily
evidence
also
of
the
mortal
hatred
he
bore
to
men
that
smelt
of
whiskey
and
to
all
Dogs,
the
causes
of
his
sufferings.
This
peculiarity,
coupled
with
his
love
for
the
child--and
all
children
seemed
to
be
included
to
some
extent--grew
with
his
growth
and
seemed
to
prove
the
ruling
force
of
his
life.
