"oh! " he said, and ran. another grunted suddenly as if he had been struck by a club in the stomach. he sat down and gazed ruefully. in his eyes there was mute, indefinite reproach. farther up the line a man, standing behind a tree, had had his knee joint splintered by a ball. immediately he had dropped his rifle and gripped the tree with both arms. and there he remained, clinging desperately and crying for assistance that he might withdraw his hold upon the tree.
