Weedon
nodded
his
head
.
"
I
mean
just
that
.
You
'd
have
a
dead
Dick
inside
one
minute
--
two
minutes
at
the
farthest
.
"
He
turned
to
White
Fang
.
"
Come
on
,
you
wolf
.
It
's
you
that
'll
have
to
come
inside
.
"
White
Fang
walked
stiff-legged
up
the
steps
and
across
the
porch
,
with
tail
rigidly
erect
,
keeping
his
eyes
on
Dick
to
guard
against
a
flank
attack
,
and
at
the
same
time
prepared
for
whatever
fierce
manifestation
of
the
unknown
that
might
pounce
out
upon
him
from
the
interior
of
the
house
.
But
no
thing
of
fear
pounced
out
,
and
when
he
had
gained
the
inside
he
scouted
carefully
around
,
looking
at
it
and
finding
it
not
.
Then
he
lay
down
with
a
contented
grunt
at
the
master
's
feet
,
observing
all
that
went
on
,
ever
ready
to
spring
to
his
feet
and
fight
for
life
with
the
terrors
he
felt
must
lurk
under
the
trap-roof
of
the
dwelling
.

Not
only
was
White
Fang
adaptable
by
nature
,
but
he
had
travelled
much
,
and
knew
the
meaning
and
necessity
of
adjustment
.
Here
,
in
Sierra
Vista
,
which
was
the
name
of
Judge
Scott
's
place
,
White
Fang
quickly
began
to
make
himself
at
home
.
He
had
no
further
serious
trouble
with
the
dogs
.
They
knew
more
about
the
ways
of
the
Southland
gods
than
did
he
,
and
in
their
eyes
he
had
qualified
when
he
accompanied
the
gods
inside
the
house
.
Wolf
that
he
was
,
and
unprecedented
as
it
was
,
the
gods
had
sanctioned
his
presence
,
and
they
,
the
dogs
of
the
gods
,
could
only
recognise
this
sanction
.
Dick
,
perforce
,
had
to
go
through
a
few
stiff
formalities
at
first
,
after
which
he
calmly
accepted
White
Fang
as
an
addition
to
the
premises
.
Had
Dick
had
his
way
,
they
would
have
been
good
friends
.
All
but
White
Fang
was
averse
to
friendship
.
All
he
asked
of
other
dogs
was
to
be
let
alone
.
His
whole
life
he
had
kept
aloof
from
his
kind
,
and
he
still
desired
to
keep
aloof
.
Dick
's
overtures
bothered
him
,
so
he
snarled
Dick
away
.
In
the
north
he
had
learned
the
lesson
that
he
must
let
the
master
's
dogs
alone
,
and
he
did
not
forget
that
lesson
now
.
But
he
insisted
on
his
own
privacy
and
self-seclusion
,
and
so
thoroughly
ignored
Dick
that
that
good-natured
creature
finally
gave
him
up
and
scarcely
took
as
much
interest
in
him
as
in
the
hitching-post
near
the
stable
.
Not
so
with
Collie
.
While
she
accepted
him
because
it
was
the
mandate
of
the
gods
,
that
was
no
reason
that
she
should
leave
him
in
peace
.
Woven
into
her
being
was
the
memory
of
countless
crimes
he
and
his
had
perpetrated
against
her
ancestry
.
Not
in
a
day
nor
a
generation
were
the
ravaged
sheepfolds
to
be
forgotten
.
All
this
was
a
spur
to
her
,
pricking
her
to
retaliation
.
She
could
not
fly
in
the
face
of
the
gods
who
permitted
him
,
but
that
did
not
prevent
her
from
making
life
miserable
for
him
in
petty
ways
.
A
feud
,
ages
old
,
was
between
them
,
and
she
,
for
one
,
would
see
to
it
that
he
was
reminded
.

So
Collie
took
advantage
of
her
sex
to
pick
upon
White
Fang
and
maltreat
him
.
His
instinct
would
not
permit
him
to
attack
her
,
while
her
persistence
would
not
permit
him
to
ignore
her
.
When
she
rushed
at
him
he
turned
his
fur-protected
shoulder
to
her
sharp
teeth
and
walked
away
stiff-legged
and
stately
.
When
she
forced
him
too
hard
,
he
was
compelled
to
go
about
in
a
circle
,
his
shoulder
presented
to
her
,
his
head
turned
from
her
,
and
on
his
face
and
in
his
eyes
a
patient
and
bored
expression
.
Sometimes
,
however
,
a
nip
on
his
hind-quarters
hastened
his
retreat
and
made
it
anything
but
stately
.
But
as
a
rule
he
managed
to
maintain
a
dignity
that
was
almost
solemnity
.
He
ignored
her
existence
whenever
it
was
possible
,
and
made
it
a
point
to
keep
out
of
her
way
.
When
he
saw
or
heard
her
coming
,
he
got
up
and
walked
off
.
There
was
much
in
other
matters
for
White
Fang
to
learn
.
Life
in
the
Northland
was
simplicity
itself
when
compared
with
the
complicated
affairs
of
Sierra
Vista
.
First
of
all
,
he
had
to
learn
the
family
of
the
master
.
In
a
way
he
was
prepared
to
do
this
.
As
Mit-sah
and
Kloo-kooch
had
belonged
to
Grey
Beaver
,
sharing
his
food
,
his
fire
,
and
his
blankets
,
so
now
,
at
Sierra
Vista
,
belonged
to
the
love-master
all
the
denizens
of
the
house
.
But
in
this
matter
there
was
a
difference
,
and
many
differences
.
Sierra
Vista
was
a
far
vaster
affair
than
the
tepee
of
Grey
Beaver
.
There
were
many
persons
to
be
considered
.
There
was
Judge
Scott
,
and
there
was
his
wife
.
There
were
the
master
's
two
sisters
,
Beth
and
Mary
.
There
was
his
wife
,
Alice
,
and
then
there
were
his
children
,
Weedon
and
Maud
,
toddlers
of
four
and
six
.
