They cannot walk, they cannot talk. Maybe for ten minutes they cough, maybe for half an hour, and then they straighten up, the tears from the coughing frozen on their faces, and the words they say are, 'Come, let us go on.' THEY CANNOT WALK THEY CANNOT TALK MAYBE FOR TEN MINUTES THEY COUGH MAYBE FOR HALF AN HOUR AND THEN THEY STRAIGHTEN UP THE TEARS FROM THE COUGHING FROZEN ON THEIR FACES AND THE WORDS THEY SAY ARE COME LET US GO ON
ey are much excited, and they say, 'Come, hurry, let us go on.' But I say we must buy grub, and they say we must travel light and fast. Also, they say that we can get grub at Charley McKeon's cabin. Then do I know that they take the big cut-off, for it is there that Charley McKeon lives where the Black Rock stands by the trail. "Before we start, I talk maybe two minutes with the priest at Anvig. Yes, there is a man with one eye who has gone by and who travels fast. And I know that for which they look is the man with the one eye. We leave Anvig with little grub, and travel light and fast. There are three fresh dogs bought in Anvig, and we travel very fast. The man and woman are like mad. We start earlier in the morning, we travel later at night. I look sometimes to see them die, these two baby wolves, but they will not die. They go on and on. When the dry cough take hold of them hard, they hold their hands against their stomach and double up in the snow, and cough, and cough, and cough.  THEY GET A LETTER AT ANVIG FOR THEY ARE MUCH EXCITED AND THEY SAY COME HURRY LET US GO ON BUT I SAY WE MUST BUY GRUB AND THEY SAY WE MUST TRAVEL LIGHT AND FAST ALSO THEY SAY THAT WE CAN GET GRUB AT CHARLEY MC KEAN'S CABIN THEN DO I KNOW THAT THEY TAKE THE BIG CUT OFF FOR IT IS THERE THAT CHARLEY MC KEEN LIVES WHERE THE BLACK ROCK STANDS BY THE TRAIL BEFORE WE START I TALK MAYBE TWO MINUTES WITH THE PRIEST AT ANVIG YES THERE IS A MAN WITH ONE EYE WHO HAS GONE BY AND WHO TRAVELS FAST AND I KNOW THAT FOR WHICH THEY LOOK IS THE MAN WITH THE ONE EYE WE LEAD ANVIG WITH LITTLE GRUB AND TRAVEL LIGHT AND FAST THERE ARE THREE FRESH DOGS BOUGHT IN ANVIG AND WE TRAVEL VERY FAST THE MAN AND WOMAN ARE LIKE MAD WE START EARLIER IN THE MORNING WE TRAVEL LATER AT NIGHT I LOOK SOMETIMES TO SEE THEM DIE THESE TWO BABY WOLVES BUT THEY WILL NOT DIE THEY GO ON AND ON WHEN THE DRY COUGH TAKE HOLD OF THEM HARD THEY HOLD THEIR HANDS AGAINST THEIR STOMACH AND DOUBLE UP IN THE SNOW AND COUGH AND COUGH AND COUGH
