1 »y Mariane Wills
1 was visiting the Baa ton-,
some very good friends of : due.
As we sat talking of oldt i. uays
in Dawson, 1 Iteard a se atcii
ing and flawing at the doin'.
Mr. Barton went to the uoor and
let in a great husky He was coy
ered with snow, but the Booms
didn’t mind that, lie lay down in
ids accustomed pi ce by tic lar
ge heater.
Mr. Hai ton looked down at
him wild love shining in his ey es
Then he said, '‘Excuse me, Mar
iane, for letting Wolf in. I hope
he won’t bother you But l don’t
like to le;vo him outside, he’s
getting ola an’ he sure pulled
me an’ the Missus out of a tight
place.” Of course, J said Will
didn’t bottler me a particle; then
true to my sex, 1 began to get
very curious, and askid Mr. Bar
toil how Wolf had helped him.
"Wall’’ lie said, “1 never have
told the si >ry before but ill ted
it to you.' This was the story he
told me
About filieen years ago my
wi.e an’ i started into Siiusha
111 * it. We into nine (logs, ail' Wolf
was our leader. He was the best
loaner i ins i u North, and ( uou
jtiii t t tUe less than six hundred
dollars [or him. We went out
alo..g the old pack trail and sto
ppo * mat night at an old cabin.
ih< v was just enough snow to
tr< tel pretty last, and our dogs
were lull of I if**. V/e travelled for
a tew d .ys an’ had grew weather*
\/e wet e ueai ing the ilohn glue
ier when 1 liotic- d (.bat a big
storm was eemi g on. Wolf
sniffed about and whined, then
Slopped st i. i prodded lain
along and fin sky reached the
bast\ Then the storm broke, and
the snow and wind lashed our
faces until they were cut and
bleeding. At y dogs droppt d one
by one, amt 1 had to leave them
along the way. Finally the only
one left was Woil. 1 threw off
our freight and wrapped my
wile as bust 1 could, with my
numbed fingers. Then , oor Wolf
si.i uggled and pulled as ii rd as
lie eould. ii • would look ones at
i e as if telling me he would
pull us through. Finally 1 saw
through the drifts a light, and
i. niKed Goo we were coma g to
sa ety 'Volf puiied us right up to
the door ai.d then dropped ex
hausted. 1 opened the door and
cari led Widl in, then my \iieen
tered; and w> told the old Sour
dough inside about our trip,
wh le we rubbed poor Wolf to
start the circulation. My wile
■petted him, and finally lie open
ed his eyes, lie looked around
the room, then closed his eyes, in
contentment. Our host said with
a Iook of rapt aai mi ration in his
eyes, “Wall if that don’t heat the
Dutch,” after he heard the last
of our story. That is why Wolf
is a privileged charaeh r around
this house. My wife and I'll never
forget what lie’s done for us.
Then Mr. an ; Mrs. Barton
looked down at Wolf with tears
j i their eyes, and I understood
then why limy loved Wolf so
mu-ch.
