HER HEARTS
Chapter 13
The course that Penny and
Cleve were following took them
along the Pence River in the
general direction ot Fort St.
John. They went along the
stream, but never very close to
It now. Deep cut banks, rocks
and driftwood piled the shore.
It was impossible to walk there
and make any progress. So they
had climbed the long, steep
slope of the river valley to its
top where the ground was more
level.
The day following Cleve's in
jury Penny estimated that they
had traveled only four miles.
Cleve had to pause every little
while to rest. The land they
were traversing was cluttered
thick with brush. Branches kept
snapping back, no matter how
careful they were, to strike
Cleve's wounded arm.
When they made camp. Cleve
said, "I guess I didn't do so well,
tot. But tomorrow I'll be feel
ing better."
His face was still flushed.
His eyes had a strange, glassy
look. Penny was alarmed.
"If you'd just listen to me.
Cleve, we'd stop and rest for a
clay or two."
He forced a laugh. "Not on
my account."
"It you should play out, what
would happen to us then?"
Cleve waved the possibility
aside. "The way I figure," he
said, "we can't be more than
five or ten miles from Long
Portage. If there's any traffic
on the river at all, we should
meet up with somebody there.

Perhaps wangle another canoe."
"Possibly," answered Penny.
"From Long Portage it's just
twenty miles to the mouth of
Moose Creek."
"And from there, twenty-five
miles to le Frene's shack," said
Penny.
They were taking an inven
tory of the miles. A mile did
n't sound tike much when one
was talking about it, Penny re
flected. But to travel over one
in this wilderness with all the
barriers of rocks, brush and
hills, was entirely different.
It was a continuous struggle,
with new hazards every minute.
There were small streams to
ford, steep slopes to climb,
swamps or muskegs unexpected
ly barring the way.
"Altogether only about an
other fifty miles," she said
gloomily.
She threw clown her pack and
averted her head so Cleve could
n't see the discouragement well
ing In her eyes.
"Yes," said Cleve, "only fifty
miles. We're halfway there."
"Halfway t h e r e," repeated
Penny dully.
"What I'm banking on is
Long Porlage and another ca
noe," said Cleve. "This con
stant walking is too hard on
you. Penny."
Too hard on her! Hero he's
been stumbling along all day
through a fog of pain, fever,
hunger and fatigue, yet his con
cern was for her. What a dear
he was, Penny thought. Invol
untarily, she wondered what
Powell Ward would have done
under such circumstances, how
he would have reacted to such
heartbreaking difficulties.
"I'm not worrying about me,"
Penny said. "I'm worrying
about you. Wc might as well
face it, Cleve. Your injury is
much worse than you or I care to
admit."
"Nonsense," said Clove.
"You're going on nerve," she
went on doggedly. "Only your
will is driving you. You're burn
ing with fever. No use denying
it. I'm not blind."
"Trouble is," Cleve admitted
reluctantly, "that blamed bullet
lodged next to the bone. It
sets up constant irritation."
"Oh. Cleve!"
"I didn't want to loll you.
Penny, but you can see now why
we can't stop. We've got to
push on to Porlage."
Penny moistened her lips,
nodding. She thought about that
as she busied hrrself gathering
firewood, fetching water from
the nearby creek. Cleve want
ed to help, but she wouldn't
let him,
"Don't be absurd, Cleve."
"I just don't like the way I
feel, watching you carrying like
a squaw. You were created,
Penny, for an Ivory and chro
mium penthouse the kind Pow
ell can provide."
A penthouse seemed very re- j

mote just now. Everything
seemed remote except this camp-
fire and Cleve and herself clos
ed in tyy the inscrutable Cana
dian wilderness.
"What's on the menu?'1 ask
ed Clove, valiantly cheerful.
"As if you didn't know. More
rice. A demi tasse of boiled
creek water. Poor Wolf it's
tough on him." Penny looked
around suddenly, "Why, Cleve,
where is he?"
Cleve said, "Oh, he's about
somewhere. I saw him not long
ago following you down to the
creek."
"But I haven't seen him since.
Oh, Cleve, I wouldn't want to
lose him!"
"He's probably off foraging
for something to eat."
"But he's just a pup. Some
thing might happen to him."
Penny got up, walked off to
ward the creek, calling and
whistling, peering through the
trees, into the underbrush. No
answer. No scamper of feet.
No high excited yapping. Cleve
rose laboriously to join the
search, sharing her anxiety.
"I hope nothing's happened to
the little rascal," he said.
They were both remember
ing that Wolf had probably sav
ed Cleve's life by diverting
Stringer's attention when he'd
pulled the gun. But neither
mentioned that. Tired as they
were, neither said anything
about discontinuing the hunt for
the little malemute.
Small tracks led them back
along the creek into the woods.
It was darker here and cooler,
More lonely. Penny stayed close
to Cleve.
"Probably scented a rabbit or
a squirrel," muttered Cleve.
"Can't blame him for deserting
us and our rice."
"No," said Penny.
Suddenly, she paused, sniffing
the air. Simultaneously, Cleve
gave a husky shout.
"Smoke!" he said. "Over
there, Penny,"
After the first relief, they
grew cautious. Once before
smoke had led them to a camp
fire and into danger. They
walked on quietly. Penny heard
Wolf yapping. They looked
through a screen of saskatoon.
1 "A Cree encampment," said
Cleve. "Thank heaven."
The Indians were hospitable.
Wolf welcomed them proudly,
frisked about making silent ca
nine introductions to his new
friends. Here was food. His
sharp nose had scented it. He
hoped his master and mistress
were pleased.
