I took his gun an' haversack, an' goin' before broke down the big drifts with my snow-shoes, an' cleared a track for him to foUer. But he was so weak an* benumbed with cold, that every little while he dropped in the snow like a wounded animile, an' begged me to let him alone. *** Hiram,' he moaned, *I can go no further. I am so tired. I feel so sleepy. Go on yourself, an* leave me here.' But I warn't a lad o' that kind. I knew pesky well what that there sleepiness meant ; it meant nothin' less ...than a closin' of eyes once an' forever; he would have been cold, stiff, stone dead in half an hour. It didn't take me more'n a brace o' minutes to find a remedy for this. Whippin* out my old knife I cut down a stick from one o' the young trees on the road, an' the way I laid it round that poor feller's body would have been a sight for the chicken-hearted, I tell ye. I beat him like an old carpet until his bones were sore. I fairly warmed him, which was jist what was wanted; an* what with whippin', kickin' him, an' at times cartin' him along on my back, we soon made mile after mile on our way.
