wan no desire to escape, rather an
eagerness to eo from a new perspec

had taken Cnrllsa Wright to rovoal.
"You'ro a toy balloon. Yes, by
Clod, that's It, and why?" ho hurried

An acorn fell.
The stlllncsii of a tomb enveloped

Still ho npoko no word.
"Do you roally think," my volco

IIo took a ntep In tho direction of

'He walked like a man to bin death

When tho path widened for a few
