Excerpt: ...winged me," gasped Pelliter. "It's not bad." He was breathing as though the short run was already winding him, and without a word Billy ran up to Kazan's head and stopped the team within twenty paces.

The sledge had reached the unbroken sweep of the Barren now, and MacVeigh felt the wind in his face.
