and a flame flick flick- tied red in his llis eyes ejes es Slowly he knocked lh ii ashes from his pipe refilled it and ancl re resumed 11 Ins his s smoking Then Ihen lie lu settled down to watch the flaming spruce logs with eyes that never er shifted Ill mysterious silence of TH the wilderness r night crept closer about the little camp as the fir fire died down and antl the man smoke Oil on on unheeding Then hen the lie woman brought more fuel from under the spruces and set the fire crackling again Dont be Le afraid I wont won't let tb the fife wolves hurt you jou Oll She tried to goad him into speech but the man only shifted his long legs gS beside the fire Several times he lifted his head and listened The voices of dogs og came to him through the night It was time for the winter snows and Jean Jolet had gone over to Willow Creek for the dogs The woman watched her giant mate out of the corner of one eje eye Perhaps she had overstepped herself that time perhaps even Duncan McGregor or who was a n spruce hen and a n cow coward aid could be crowded into n light fight She didn't like his silence She had cometo come cometo cometo to fear the silent men of the North Those who said aid the least were the bitterest and most heartless when they set their feet to t the be blood tra trail II Singing Winds Wind's heart henrt fluttered as the yelp yell J of oC the he sledge dogs dolts sounded just beyond jond the I bend in m the trail She knew it was Jean J Jolet the man whom en even a Yellow Keife om woman n might love without shame The rhe man beside the tire fire had proved himself him him- fOCI self a n coward There was no question about it it he had llad violated the honor of the Yellow Yellow- Knives Klives But nut why didn't he talk So the woman waited watching for the battle flame to flicker nicker in those cold coM gray eyes Her lIer husband was WIS a n coward but even oven the stolid musk ox fought fought for for possession of its mate The woman waited As her hr husband ro rose roie roseto e eto to lo meet his partner her blood ran rife with the call of battle perhaps he would fight after all Though she would not admit It even to herself she knew knee down deep in in her heart that there was something there that had been born one soft night in the spring ng when hen Duncan McGregor had lied first come to the camp of the Yellow If he fought and fought well i perhaps p it would spring into life again with its shiver shirer of delirious delight 1 She bho hc noted McGregor's McGregors ors or's massive shoulders shoulder v the graceful swell ell of his iron muscles Surely he was a II beautiful animal to look at atso atso atso so so was a 11 moose moose but but the m mouse moose ose forgot hi his strength and went floundering through the snow now to tl his death death- when the lie blood song of the wolf wolf pack began to shiver shirer among the spruces Surely the wolves were the true tru lords of the rho wilderness ess and Jean Jolet was like th the wolves gaunt wolves and antl sinewy and not afraid She was certain of that he lie was not afraid Jean Jolet would never neer shame her with his cowardice He lIe would even face the wolf pack with n Il smile fight and die like the Knife hunters bunters bras braAe Yellow Knife Yellow Jean you want to go back to Swamp Creek the pas passionless voice olce of the big hig trapper questioned Sure thing if jouve youve changed your mind Wouldn't like anything better Jolet boasted as he unfastened the dogs No Ko I haven't changed my mind but bu Singing Wind has She's got a hankering for old l fur and its it's you and her for Cor it Im I'm going south been in in the stunted blunted forests t too o long alread already You canive can give ive me a lift with the dogs t tomorrow orrow as J t l far as Swamp Creek if we vc get the snow v that's threatening Singing wind looked nt at Jolet Sh She could see the fire of happiness dancing in hi his eye cye eyes They two alone would battle for forthe forthe forthe the rich trapping grounds of McPhearson McPhearson- surely it was bravery cry ra that would be an nn honor honoro o even a Yellow But Hut over o the pulsing puls puls- ill lug ing of her new happiness the dull dun pain I of f r regret ret gripped Her heart Once she had gloried in the blind faith that this iron iron- limbed man who had come from the south was braver bra and stronger than other other men Now he had cast her ber aside rather thin then figh fight t. t If he he had been a m murderer urd she sure coull have o forgiven him If It he had been beon a n grub thief in a famine stricken famine stricken camp and jud stolen for her Iler then hen she would have e craw crawled cJ on her knees to kiss his hand but a n coward that lint that was be beyond ond the law the iron law of the Yellow-Knife Yellow pea people pIe that a woman must he be a bearer bearr of oC burdens and the m men must bo be unafraid Jolet did not question whether Singing Wind was willing to share a trap camp with him or not It was the pride prId he had inherited from his Trench French father that for fo bade him making inquiries Of course a Yellow-Knife Yellow would be glad to share a camp with Jean Jolet trapper Singing Wind understood his view of the of-the th the matter yet it ft hurt her for she was a of the Northern skies and sounded a troubled wail nail Singing Wind was a daughter of the Yel Y l- l low Jow Each of these things carried earned a message to her she her she knew it would be snowing snowing snow snow- in ing before belore morning So she crawled away to her

about the camp an au owl hooted booted out in n the blackness of the fin the swamp amp sledge dogs stirred uneasily in their sleep then one of them lifted his nose to the dull murk Then rhen she saw
