The bear that is following us,
gpt
A bear following us?
human
Yes, for the last two days!
gpt
For the last two days! You have seen him?
human
Yes, about a mile to leeward.
gpt
And you never told me, Johnson!
human
What was the good!
gpt
True enough, said the Doctor;
human
No, not even a bit of iron!
gpt
Are you quite certain the animal is following us?
human
Yes, Mr. Clawbonny, he is reckoning on a good feed of human flesh!
gpt
Johnson!
human
He is sure enough of his meal! continued the poor fellow, whose brain had begun to give way.
gpt
He must be hungry, and I dont see why we should keep him waiting.
human
Johnson, calm yourself!
gpt
No, Mr Clowbonny, sine we must die, why prolong the sufferings of the poor beast? He is famished like ourselves. There are no seals for him to eat, and Heaven sends hiim men! So much the better for him, thats all!
human
Johnson, I shall kill that bear to-morrow!
gpt
To-morrow!
human
Yes, to-morrow.
gpt
You have no ball!
human
I'll make one.
gpt
You have no lead!
human
No, but I have mercury.
gpt
Tomorrow! Go to sleep, and wait till the sun rises.
