"There was a tremendous uproar then," Robin went on with relish. "The folk howled to Stridge to put me over the balcony " "I wish he had tried!" said Gerald with simple fervour. "And other folk cried to me to go on.
"That's a mighty lonely wolf," whispered Long Jim. "Listen!" Henry whispered back. "That's no wolf. It's Shif'less Sol." "Mebbe it's so, but he's shorely howlin' like the king of all wolves." Long Jim was right. Perhaps no wolf had ever before howled with such vigor and endurance. The long yelping, whining note filled the whole valley and quivered on the air.
The little pink sloth-creature dashed at me, and I gashed down its ugly face with the nail in my stick and in another minute was scrambling up a steep side pathway, a kind of sloping chimney, out of the ravine. I heard a howl behind me, and cries of "Catch him!" "Hold him!" and the grey-faced creature appeared behind me and jammed his huge bulk into the cleft. "Go on! go on!" they howled.

Having reached Vytegra, he was accosted on the shore by a peasant, who asked where he was going. On hearing his story, he said "You are the man I want. I am going to St. Petersburg.

Even the stiff hawthorn fences bowed before its breath, and the tall poplars on the skyline bent like a rod beneath the first rush of a salmon.
"Last night my dog Yack whines to go out. He went and sat in a place where he looks down on the walley, and he howled for half an hour. I said then that somebody in the walley has died. That dog is something queer about it. He knows things." "I'm going to the Sawtooth," Lone told him. "I can telephone to the coroner from there. Anybody at Thurman's place, do you know?"

This Walker was a genius in a small fashion.
She ripped down the last pouring, contemptuously leaving tons of rock and concrete at the foot of the concrete section. She roared and howled and shook the good earth with the noise of a railway train tearing through a tunnel. And Jim laughed. "If it wasn't for you, old girl," he told her one afternoon, "I'd go crazy with the flea bitings of the Enemy.
