CHAPTER II-THE SHE-WOLF, an excerpt
From White Fang
By Jack London
Breakfast eaten and the slim camp-outfit lashed to the sled. the men turned their backs
on the cheery fire and launched out into the darkness. At once began to rise the cries
that were fiercely sad-cries that called through the darkness and cold to one another
and answered back. Conversation ceased.
Daylight came at nine o clock. At midday the sky to the south warmed to rose-colour, and marked where the bulge
of the earth
intervened between the meridian sun and the northern world. But the rose-colour swiftly faded. The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o clock, when it,
too, faded, and the pall of the Arctic night descended upon the lone and silent land.
As darkness came on, the hunting-cries to right and left and
rear drew
closer so close
that more than once
they sent surges of fear through the
toiling dogs, throwing them
into short-lived panics.
At the conclusion of
traces, Bill said;
one such panic, when he and Henry had got the dogs back in the
wisht they'd
strike game somewheres, an' go away
an' leave us alone."
"They do get
on the nerves horrible," Henry sympathized.
They spoke
no more until camp was made.
