Being to catch an early train to town I was down in the breakfast room soon after eight Uncle Frank was there I am truly sorry to have disturbed last night he began It was certainly alarming I re plied that last winter I being driven in sledge through one of most desolate distriota of the Russian wilda The driver afraid of an attack by wolves had very re luctantly yielded my offer payment to take me in a stage to the next military station which I was most anxionftp reach pro ceeded about of an hoar on oar way when we found to our horror that a large pack hungry wolves was in fall pursuit of us all your things away and let tbe scramble for them warned you of this cried the driver a powerful sullen man the rag that covered our I throw oat behind us It was set upon in on aod torn to shreds No whip was needed for the horses maddened fear galloped on at their utmost Throw away your whip anything to stop them I ejaculated Not a thing until everything have is gone replied he aavagely This is your doing Away went my hat and to follow the rug Now your portmanteau that will stop them long enoogb to enable us to reach the station I see the lights At this I stuck That portman teau contained papers paper money and bonds of great value the out come of my successful journey To have parted with them would have roio I refused Then you go yourself shrieked the driver Letting slip the reins he threw himself upon me and en deavored to fling me out of the sledge He waa si stronger and heavier man than I was and would inevitably have succeeded in overpowering me had not my cries of Murder and Help I reached the military station a short distance ahead While we were straggling and when the leading wolves of the pack were actually the horses tbe shot of a rifle rolled the biggest one over in the snow The whole lot were at once down their wounded fellow tearing him limb from limb Tiro Russito officers having board had ridden rapidly up and seeing the of the case bad fired upon the wolves and saved me from following the way of my and coat Being anxious to posh on I would not lodge any formal complaint against my assailant whom I left next day at the mercy of my deliver ers
