If Pirate kept to the road, Dick would bring him down, but if Pirate took it into his head to vault a fence! Warburton shuddered. Faster, faster, over this roll of earth, clattering across this bridge, around this curve and that angle. Once the sight of a team drawing a huge grain-wagon sent a shiver to Warburton?s heart. But they thundered past with a foot to spare. The old negro on the seat stared after them, his ebony face drawn with wonder and the whites of his eyes showing.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
