'Better that we don't travel to day,' I say, 'else will the frost be unwarmed in the breathing and bite all the edges of our lungs. After that we will have bad cough, and maybe next spring will come pneumonia.' But they are _checha quo_. They do not understand the trail. BETTER THAT WE DON'T TRAVEL TO DAY I SAY ELSE WILL THE FROST BE UNWARMED IN THE BREATHING AND BITE ALL THE EDGES OF OUR LUNGS AFTER THAT WE WILL HAVE BAD COUGH AND MAYBE NEXT SPRING WILL COME PNEUMONIA BUT THEY ARE CHECK A QUO THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE TRAIL
ken people, they cry under their breaths; and all the time they say, 'On! on! We will go on!' "They are like crazy people. All the time do they go on, and on. Why do they go on? I do not know. Only do they go on. What are they after? I do not know. They are not after gold. There is no stampede. Besides, they spend plenty of money. But I ask questions no more. I, too, go on and on, because I am strong on the trail and because I am greatly paid. "We make Circle City. That for which they look is not there. I think now that we will rest, and rest the dogs. But we do not rest, not for one day do we rest. 'Come,' says the woman to the man, 'let us go on.' And we go on. We leave the Yukon. We cross the divide to the west and swing down into the Tanana Country. There are new diggings there. But that for which they look is not there, and we take the back trail to Circle City. "It is a hard journey. December is most gone. The days are short. It is very cold. One morning it is seventy below zero. D THEIR FEET HURT VERY MUCH THEY LIMP THEY STAGGER LIKE DRUNKEN PEOPLE THEY CRY UNDER THEIR BREATHS AND ALL THE TIME THEY SAY ON ON WE WILL GO ON THEY ARE LIKE CRAZY PEOPLE ALL THE TIME DO THEY GO ON AND ON WHY DO THEY GO ON I DO NOT KNOW ONLY DO THEY GO ON WHAT ARE THEY AFTER I DO NOT KNOW THEY ARE NOT AFTER GOLD THERE IS NO STAMPEDE BESIDES THEY SPEND PLENTY OF MONEY BUT I ASK QUESTIONS NO MORE I TOO GO ON AND ON BECAUSE I AM STRONG ON THE TRAIL BECAUSE I AM GREATLY PAID WE MAKE CIRCLE CITY THAT FOR WHICH THEY LOOK IS NOT THERE I THINK NOW THAT WE WILL REST AND REST THE DOGS BUT WE DO NOT REST NOT FOR ONE DAY DO WE REST COME SAYS THE WOMAN TO THE MAN LET US GO ON AND WE GO ON WE LEAVE THE YUKON WE CROSS THE DIVIDE TO THE WEST AND SWING DOWN INTO TANANA COUNTRY THERE ARE NEW DIGGINGS THERE BUT THAT FOR WHICH THEY LOOK IS NOT THERE AND WE TAKE THE BACK TRAIL TO CIRCLE CITY IT IS A HARD JOURNEY DECEMBER IS MOST GONE THE DAYS ARE SHORT IT IS VERY COLD ONE MORNING IT IS SEVENTY BELOW ZERO
