I say to Golemar, 'We will closer go, ne c'est pas? A step or two then three but he do not move then pretty soon I look again, close. Eet is a man, I pick heem up, like this and I bring heem home. Ne c'est pas, Medaine?" Her name was Medaine then. Not bad, Barry thought.
Then you shall see." For an hour or so after that he boomed about the cabin, singing queer old songs in a patois, rumbling to the faithful Golemar, washing the dishes while Houston wiped them, joking, talking of everything but the troubles of the day and the plans of the night. Outside the shadows grew heavier, finally to turn to pitch darkness. The bull bats began to circle about the cabin.
That is heem, my Golemar, M'sieu l' Ticklefoot! Oh, ho M'sieu l' Ticklefoot!" "What in thunder is the big idea?" Barry Houston had lost his reserve now. "I want to be a good fellow but for the love of Mike let me in on the joke. I can't get it. I don't see anything funny in lying here with a broken arm and having my feet tickled.
Ba'tiste and his constant companion, Golemar, were making the round of the traps and had been gone for hours. Barry was alone alone with the beauties of spring in the hills, with the soft call of the meadow lark in the bit of greenery which fringed the still purling stream in the little valley, the song of the breeze through the pines, the sunshine, the warmth and his problems.
"She she didn't tell you anything before she went?" Ba'tiste shook his head. "She would not speak to me. Nothing would, she tell me. At first I go alone then yesterday, when the snow, he pack, I take Golemar. Then she is unconscious. All day and night I stay beside the bed, but she do not open her eye. Then, with the morning, she sigh, and peuff! She is gone." "Without a word."
At the doorway, Ba'tiste, his big hands fumbling, caught the paws of Golemar, his wolf-dog, and raised the great, shaggy creature against his breast. "No," he said in kindly, indulgent fashion. "Eet is not for Golemar to go with us. The drift, they are deep. There is no crust on the snow. Golemar, he would sink above his head. Then blooey! There would be no Golemar!" Guide lines were affixed.
Ba'teese think about his lost trap. He think mebbe there is one place where he have not look'. He say to Golemar he will go for jus' one, two hour. Nobody see, he think. So he go. And he come back. Blooey! Eet is done! Ba'teese have fail!" "But what, Ba'tiste? It wasn't your fault. Don't feel that way about it? Has anything happened to Agnes?" "No. The mill." "They've ?" "Look!"
I've never made a cruise of the territory around here. But it's always been my belief that with the exception of the land on the other quarter of the lake " "That is all." "Then where " But again Ba'tiste shrugged his shoulders. Then he pulled long at his grizzled beard, regarding the wolf-dog which sat between his legs, staring up at him. "Golemar," came at last. "There is something strange.
He stumbled slightly as he made the next rise in the road and went on slowly, silently, toward the cabin. There Ba'tiste found him, slumped on the bench, staring out at the white and rose pinks of Mount Taluchen, yet seeing none of it. The big man boomed a greeting, and Barry, striving for a smile, answered him. The Canadian turned to his wolf-dog. "Peuff! Golemar!
Eagerly Barry searched the thronging crowd, at last to catch sight of a gigantic figure, his wolf-dog beside him. He leaped from the car even before it had ceased to move. "Ba'tiste!" he called. "Ba'tiste!" Great arms opened wide. A sob came from the throat of a giant. "Mon Baree! Mon Baree!" It was all he could say for a moment. Then, "Mon Baree, he have come back to Ba'teese. Ah, Golemar!
