Our field-cornet had a proof of this as he watched the chase. His elevated position gave him a view of the whole ground, and he could note every movement both of pursuer and pursued. On breaking off, the hartebeest ran in a right line, and the hounds followed straight after.
He lamented having lost the silver quiver when he was upset into the water and regretted that the rose-colored chiton should afterwards have suffered a reduction in length at the hands of his pursuer.
Vaniman's first impulse was to overtake the fugitive. He wanted to have Britt in his grip, holding to him, forcing him to confess and restore. But when Britt reached the highway and started in the direction of the village, saner second thought controlled the pursuer.
They looked back at every interval; now they did not see their fancied pursuer now he emerged again into view now yes he also was running.
We galloped forward in the direction they had taken, and in less than 300 yards we arrived at the spot where the cheetah had pinned the buck; this was lying upon its back without a struggle, while the firm jaws of the pursuer gripped its throat. The cheetah did not attempt to shake or tear the prey, but simply retained its hold, thus strangling the victim, which had ceased all resistance.
"Pick up those pieces of glass, and call Jacob to wipe the floor," he said then walked to the door, and stood staring after the curate as he all but ran to overtake the swiftly gliding figure. The woman, ignorant that her pursuer was again upon her track, and hardly any longer knowing what she did, hurried blindly towards the churchyard.
She crouched in her seat, her hands clinging tightly to the box, her head turned as though expecting their pursuer to overtake them any moment. Suddenly Tom frowned. At the same time the engine gave a grating "b-r-r-r." "Oh, what is it?" "Oil's getting low Bad " she caught in answer. "Pulling some I'll fool him, though " He slowed down. "Don't " implored Robin. "We'll turn down this road.
"Captain Strawn's theory," read the text below the large drawing, "is that Sprague had good cause to fear he was being followed on his way to the Miles home; that he telephoned for a taxi to wait for him at the foot of the hill, and that he planned to leave the Miles house by way of the trophy room window, so that his lurking pursuer might have no knowledge of his departure.
Hermas felt that he was outstripping his pursuer, and was making ready for a spring over a block of stone that encumbered the path, when he heard his name called behind him, and he stood still, for he recognized the voice of the man from whom he was flying as that of his good friend Paulus. "You indeed," said the Alexandrian, panting for breath.
Then ensued a terrible race, with horse and bison describing a twenty-foot circle. Bang! Bang! The hunter fired two shots, and heard the spats of the bullets. But they only augmented the frenzy of the beast. Faster Kentuck flew, snorting in terror; closer drew the dusty, bouncing pursuer; the calf spun like a top; the lasso strung tighter than wire.
