Animal Heroes

The
Wolf
turned
toward
the
slaughter-house,
a
familiar
resort,
and
the
shooting
ceased
on
account
of
the
houses,
as
well
as
the
Dogs,
being
so
near.
These
were
indeed
now
close
enough
to
encircle
him
and
hinder
all
further
flight.
He
looked
for
a
place
to
guard
his
rear
for
a
final
stand,
and
seeing
a
wooden
foot-bridge
over
a
gutter
he
sprang
in,
there
faced
about
and
held
the
pack
at
bay.
The
men
got
bars
and
demolished
the
bridge.
He
leaped
out,
knowing
now
that
he
had
to
die,
but
ready,
wishing
only
to
make
a
worthy
fight,
and
then
for
the
first
time
in
broad
day
view
of
all
his
foes
he
stood--the
shadowy
Dog-killer,
the
disembodied
voice
of
St.
Boniface
woods,
the
wonderful
Winnipeg
Wolf.
