“Why not you?” demanded John.
“It is the day of Saint Maria Kleopha; she is my patron saint who would
not allow me to be eaten by wolves on her day. Such a thing could not be
thought of. You, yes, but not me.”
John suddenly heard a noise. ‘There was a scraping and shuffling as of
some animals trying to climb up to the footboard.
“There are hundreds of them,” whispered the woman; “they have scented
us. They will tear the carriage to pieces. We shall be devoured.”
“See, over there beyond the trees, there is a house with smoke coming
from it. I shall find a path through the forest to that house with the
chimney.”
“But the wolves!” exclaimed John; “they may-”
“Not on my patron saint’s day, “said the woman, and before he could stop
her, she had opened the door and climbed down in to the snow. A moment
later; two gaunt lean figures rushed upon her from the forest. When John
looked at last, he saw that the wolves were not doing any harm to the
woman. A short, joyous bark revealed the clue to the situation.
“Are those – dogs”? he called weakly.
“My cousin Karl’s dogs, yes,” she answered; “that is his inn, over beyond
the trees. I knew it was there, but I did not want to take you there.
However, it grows too cold to remain in the train. Ah, ah, see what

A whistle sounded, and a relief engine made its appearance, snorting its
way sulkily through the snow.
