Quotation from: The Valley of the Moon

Written by: Jack London


"Come on, you girls," he commanded. "Get onto yourself, Bert. We
got to get onta this. We can't fight an army."


He led the retreat, holding Saxon's arm, and Bert, giggling and
jubilant, brought up the rear with an indignant Mary who
protested vainly in his unheeding ears.


For a hundred yards they ran and twisted through the trees, and
then, no signs of pursuit appearing, they slowed down to a
dignified saunter. Bert, the trouble-seeker, pricked his ears to
the muffled sound of blows and sobs, and stepped aside to
investigate.
