A slow sternness crawled Into Ms eye#; be dropped the butt of the shotgun to th e le sse e ; leaned upon It and stood sta rin g down a t the road. G radually, as be sta red , th ere grew upon him the consciousness of an out line of a single footprint a t the other side of the road—detached, alone, ap parently with no m ark o f any kind leading e ith e r to It or from It. T be singular fact of Its seem ingly perfect Isolation slowly reached him, sod won a place among th e troop of thoughts th at gripped him. H e studied It closely a moment, grunted and then grinned.
