About this ebook

The stillness of the forest trail was so primeval that the tread of a soft-booted foot was a startling disturbance. At least it seemed so to the ears of the wayfarer; though he was moving along the path with the caution that must be practised by any man who ventures beyond Thunder River. He was a young man of medium height; with an open countenance and a mop of tousled tawny hair unconfined by cap or helmet. His garb was common enough for that country—a coarse tunic; belted at the waist; short leather breeches beneath; and soft buckskin boots that came short of the knee. A knife-hilt jutted from one boot-top. The broad leather belt supported a short; heavy sword and a buckskin pouch. There was no perturbation in the wide eyes that scanned the green walls which fringed the trail. Though not tall; he was well built; and the arms that the short wide sleeves of the tunic left bare were thick with corded muscle.
