Quotation from: The Call of the Wild

Written by: Jack London


Thornton came to, belly downward and being violently propelled
back and forth across a drift log by Hans and Pete. His first
glance was for Buck, over whose limp and apparently lifeless body
Nig was setting up a howl, while Skeet was licking the wet face
and closed eyes. Thornton was himself bruised and battered, and
he went carefully over Buck's body, when he had been brought
around, finding three broken ribs.


"That settles it," he announced. "We camp right here." And camp
they did, till Buck's ribs knitted and he was able to travel.
