I never saw such abrupt little chasms in my life. Uncle Cassius was showing me the layers of strata there that a little recent landslide had shown up, and he says that the formation is just exactly like it is out west in Wyoming and Colorado. "Aunt Daphne is just a dear. It's more fun to hear her tell of how she worried over a boy coming into the family.
But dignity was blown to the four winds by the very unprofessional and very woodsman-like cheer that Doc raised, and that was echoed thunderously by Joe Flint and a few other guides and loungers who had collected to hear the story, when Cyrus described the splendid rush which Herb made, with the dying man in his arms, and the clay of the landslide half smothering him.
For a long time I could not receive any other sensation, nor admit any other thought, but of its terrific strength. The Indians say that in former times the river flowed smoothly where are now the whirling rapids of the Cascades, but that a landslide from the banks dammed up the stream, and produced this great change.

In this, a landslide having covered the place where it was buried, he was unsuccessful.
"And I never dreamed I could smile at any man except the boy who lay by me that night. And he died." "What miracle saved you?" She said: "It was wonderful, and yet very simple. You remember how the tree crushed me down into the snow? Well, when the landslide moved, it carried the tree before it; the weight of the trunk was lifted from me.
"Now, we don't want to seem harsh," went on the man who seemed to be the spokesman, "but you'd better get away from here. This is private ground, and dangerous too how'd you ever get up the trail we heard it was destroyed." "There is still a narrow path," said Mr. Jenks. "We came up that the lightning and landslide haven't left much of it, though." Mr.
