"Moncrossen will go out on the flood, and Wa-ha-ta-na-ta " He redoubled his efforts, fairly dragging the girl through the deep slush. The rain was carrying off the snow with a rush. The gullies and ravines were running bankful, and time and again the two were forced to plunge shoulder-deep into the icy waters.

Even Trent, by no means inexperienced in these matters, was disgusted with Bulling's tone. Following Barney's glances and aware of his wandering attention, he was about to propose a breakup of the party when he was arrested by a look of rigid and eager attention upon the face of his friend. "Disgusting brute!" said Trent, in a low voice. But Barney heeded him not.

Here, too, erratically drifting chunks collect from the ice breakup.
