The pack pours like a hideous flood over the spot where the last act of Nick Westley"s tragedy has been played out. A brief but fiendish tumult, and little remains to tell of the sorry drama. The impa.s.sive mountains, unmoved spectators, give no sign. The stupendous reticence of the wilderness, like the fall of a mighty curtain, closes over the scene, taking the story into its inviolable keeping.

THE END.
