"My daughter is overtired, and that's the truth of it," explained Maloney presently when he rejoined us and had examined in turn the other paw marks. "She's been overdoing it lately, and camp life, you know, always means a great excitement to her. It's natural enough, if we take no notice she'll be all right." MY DAUGHTER IS OVERTIRED AND THAT'S THE TRUTH OF IT EXPLAINED MALONEY PRESENTLY WHEN HE HAD REJOINED US AND HAD EXAMINED IN TURN THE OTHER PAW MARKS SHE'S BEEN OVERDOING IT LATELY AND CAMP LIFE YOU KNOW ALWAYS MEANS A GREAT EXCITEMENT TO HER IT'S NATURAL ENOUGH IF WE TAKE NO NOTICE SHE'LL BE ALL RIGHT
p like the dead," he added, straightening up again, "and so heard nothing, I suppose." We traced the paw-marks from the mouth of his tent in a direct line across to the girl's, but nowhere else about the Camp was there a sign of the strange visitor. The deer, dog, or whatever it was that had twice favoured us with a visit in the night, had confined its attentions to these two tents. And, after all, there was really nothing out of the way about these visits of an unknown animal, for although our own island was destitute of life, we were in the heart of a wilderness, and the mainland and larger islands must be swarming with all kinds of four-footed creatures, and no very prolonged swimming was necessary to reach us. In any other country it would not have caused a moment's interest—interest of the kind we felt, that is. In our Canadian camps the bears were for ever grunting about among the provision bags at night, porcupines scratching unceasingly, and chipmunks scuttling over everything. TES WITHOUT SPEAKING ONLY I SLEEP LIKE THE DEAD HE ADDED STRAIGHTENING UP AGAIN AND SO I HEARD NOTHING I SUPPOSE WE TRACED THE PAW MARKS FROM THE MOUTH OF HIS TENT IN A DIRECT LINE ACROSS TO THE GIRLS BUT NOWHERE ELSE ABOUT THE CAMP WAS THERE A SIGN OF THE STRANGE VISITOR THE DEER DOG OR WHATEVER IT WAS THAT HAD TWICE FAVORED US WITH A VISIT IN THE NIGHT HAD CONFINED ITS ATTENTION TO THESE TWO TENTS AND AFTER ALL THERE WAS REALLY NOTHING OUT OF THE WAY ABOUT THESE VISITS OF AN UNKNOWN ANIMAL FOR ALTHOUGH OUR ISLAND WAS DESTITUTE OF LIFE WE WERE IN THE HEART OF A WILDERNESS AND THE MAINLAND AND LARGER ISLANDS MUST BE SWARMING WITH ALL KINDS OF FOUR FOOTED CREATURES AND NO VERY PROLONGED SWIMMING WAS NECESSARY TO REACH US IN ANY OTHER COUNTRY IT WOULD NOT HAVE CAUSED A MOMENT'S INTEREST INTEREST OF THE KIND WE FELT THAT IS IN OUR CANADIAN CAMPS THE BEARS WERE FOREVER GRUNTING ABOUT AMONG THE PROVISION BAGS AT NIGHT PORCUPINES SCRATCHING UNCEASINGLY AND CHIPMUNKS SCUTTLING OVER EVERYTHING
