A
mile
farther
the
Wolf
track
came
galloping
on
the
ice
behind
the
cariole.
The
man
track
disappeared
now,
for
the
driver
had
leaped
on
the
sled
and
lashed
the
Dogs.
Here
is
where
he
cut
adrift
the
bundles.
That
is
why
things
were
scattered
over
the
ice.
See
how
the
Dogs
were
bounding
under
the
lash.
Here
was
the
Fiddler's
knife
in
the
snow.
He
must
have
dropped
it
in
trying
to
use
it
on
the
Wolf.
And
here-what!
the
Wolf
track
disappears,
but
the
sled
track
speeds
along.
The
Wolf
has
leaped
on
the
sled.
The
Dogs,
in
terror,
added
to
their
speed;
but
on
the
sleigh
behind
them
there
is
a
deed
of
vengeance
done.
In
a
moment
it
is
over;
both
roll
off
the
sled;
the
Wolf
track
reappears
on
the
east
side
to
seek
the
woods.
The
sled
swerves
to
the
west
bank,
where,
after
half
a
mile,
it
is
caught
and
wrecked
on
a
root.
The
snow
also
told
Renaud
how
the
Dogs,
entangled
in
the
harness,
had
fought
with
each
other,
had
cut
themselves
loose,
and
trotting
homeward
by
various
ways
up
the
river,
had
gathered
at
the
body
of
their
late
tyrant
and
devoured
him
at
a
meal.
Bad
enough
for
the
Dogs,
still
they
were
cleared
of
the
murder.
That
certainly
was
done
by
the
Wolf,
and
Renaud,
after
the
shock
of
horror
was
past,
gave
a
sigh
of
relief
and
added,
"Eet
is
le
Garou.
He
hab
save
my
leel
girl
from
zat
Paul.
He
always
was
good
to
children."
