The Dark Forest

CHAPTER IV
6/70

The only adventure I have ever had in my life is not--no, it is not--yet ended.

And I know that Marie could not have left me like that, without a word, unless she were returning or were going to send for me.
Meanwhile to-day a beastly thing has happened, a thing that will make life much harder for me here.

All the morning there was work.

Bandaged twenty--had fifty in altogether--sent thirty-four on, kept the rest.
Two died during the morning.

This isn't really a good place to be, it's so hemmed in with trees.
