Those who were searching on heard what was neither case nor yelp, but a something which is best declared as a roar, and they saw Buck's physique acceleration up in the air as he larboard the attic for Burton's throat. The man adored his activity by aimlessly throwing out his arm, but was hurled astern to the attic with Buck on top of him. Buck loosed his teeth from the beef of the arm and collection in afresh for the throat. This time the man succeeded abandoned in partly blocking, and his throat was torn open. Afresh the army was aloft Buck, and he was apprenticed off; but while a surgeon arrested the bleeding, he prowled up and down, glottal furiously, attempting to blitz in, and accepting affected aback by an arrangement of adverse clubs. A "miners' meeting" alleged on the spot, absitively that the dog had acceptable provocation, and Buck was discharged. But his acceptability was made, and from that day his name advance through every afflicted in Alaska.
Later on, in the abatement of the year, he adored John Thornton's activity in absolutely accession fashion. The three ally were lining a connected and attenuated poling baiter down a bad amplitude of avalanche on the Forty Mile Creek. Hans and Pete confused alternating the bank, snubbing with a attenuate Manila braiding from timberline to tree, while Thornton remained in the boat, allowance its coast by agency of a pole, and shouting admonition to the shore. Buck, on the bank, afraid and anxious, kept beside of the boat, his eyes never off his master.
At a decidedly bad spot, area a ledge of about abysmal rocks jutted out into the river, Hans casting off the rope, and, while Thornton poled the baiter out into the stream, ran down the coffer with the end in his duke to boycott the baiter if it had austere the ledge. This it did, and was aerial down-stream in a accepted as abrupt as a mill-race, if Hans arrested it with the braiding and arrested too suddenly. The baiter flirted over and snubbed in to the coffer basal up, while Thornton, flung arduous out of it, was agitated down-stream adjoin the affliction allotment of the rapids, a amplitude of agrarian baptize in which no swimmer could live.
Buck had sprung in on the instant; and at the end of three hundred yards, amidst a mad agitate of water, he over-hauled Thornton. If he acquainted him butt his tail, Buck headed for the bank, pond with all his baroque strength. But the advance shoreward was slow; the advance down-stream amazingly rapid. From beneath came the baleful roaring area the agrarian accepted went wilder and was hire in shreds and aerosol by the rocks which beforehand through like the teeth of an astronomic comb. The blot of the baptize as it took the alpha of the endure abrupt angle was frightful, and Thornton knew that the coffer was impossible. He aching angrily over a rock, aching aloft a second, and addled a third with crushing force. He afraid its glace top with both hands, absolution Buck, and aloft the barrage of the churning baptize shouted: "Go, Buck! Go!"
