Late that day, after waiting long, cold hours in the vain hope that they would come near my hiding-place, I pushed out sadly in a leaky old tub of a boat to catch the Widow Dunkle's goose. The flock took alarm while I was yet far away; slanted heavily up-wind to the tree-tops, where with much calling and answering the young birds fell into line, and the wedge bore away swiftly seaward. After them went Old Graylag heartbroken, beating her heavy way over the water, calling and calling again to the flock that had now become only a confused tangle of wild voices over the tree-tops. Straight to the shore she went, and _ _ across a little wild meadow, still follow-Zf JSf ing the flock. When I caught her she was IMfSwaddling bravely through the woods, stop-c-ping anon to call and listen; but she made cX no resistance when I tucked her under my J elbow and carried her home and slipped her, unobserved in the darkness, into her accustomed place in the Widow Dunkle's duck coop. That was the nearest I ever came, in boyhood days, to a close acquaintance with Waptonk the Wild; but always in the fall his voice roused the hunter as no other sound ever did; and always in the spring his clanging jubilate aroused the longing in the boy's heart to follow after him and find out what it was in the wild, lonely North that called him.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
