Excerpt from The Works of Frederick Faust: The Dan Barry Series From the first the evening pause after supper hurt him most, for a man needs talk as well as tobacco, and after a time he dreaded these evenings so bitterly that he purposely spent himself every day, so as to pass from supper into sleep at a stride. It needed a long day to burn out his strength thoroughly, so he set his rusted alarm - clock, and before dawn it brought him groaning out of the blankets to cook a hasty break fast and go slowly up to the tunnel. In short he wedded himself to his work, he stepped into a routine which took the place of thought, and the change in him was so gradual that he did not see the danger. A mirror might have shown it to him as he stood this morning at the door of his lean-to, for the wind ¿uttered the shirt around his labor-dried body, and his fore head puckered in a frown, grown habitual. It was a narrow face, with rather close-set eyes and a slanted forehead which gave token of a single-track mind, a single-pur posed nature with one hundred and eighty pounds of strong sinews and iron-hard mus cle to give it significance. Such was Vic Gregg as he stood at the door waiting for the coffee he had drunk to brush away the cobwebs of sleep, and then he heard the eagle scream.
