He does not possess the saving grace of humor, and his companions subject him to many jokes which he does not accept with good grace. While upon a hunting trip, he one day lets his temper assert itself, and in a frenzy, strikes down his best friend. Then seeing what he has done, flees in terror into the depths of the forest. His friend is not badly injured, and as all feel sorry for their conduct and know that their chaff was ill-advised, they endeavor to find him, well knowing that if he is lost his chances for remaining alive are very slim. They get near him at times but haunted with awful fear and believing that he is hunted, he eludes them and eventually throws them off the scent and gets loaf. He is found in an exhausted condition by the dog of a lumberman and is rescued by the man who takes him to the lumber camp. He gets word that his friend is all right, and returns home a cured man and with his temper forever in check. Written by
