Thornton went on working.He had warned them,but he knew he couldn't stop these stupid men from going on.
But Buck didn't get up.Solleks stood up slowly,then Teek and Joe,and finally Pike.But Buck stayed where he was.The whip came down on him again and again.Thornton_started_to_speak,then_stopped,and_began_to_walk_up_and_down.
Hal now put down his whip and started to hit Buck with a club.But Buck had decided not to get up.He had felt thin ice under his feet all day and he saw thin ice in front of him.The club hit him again and again,but Buck felt almost nothing.
Then suddenly, with a
wild cry,John Thornton jumped on Hal,throwing him backwards.Mercedes screamed.
“If you hit that dog again,I'll kill you,” Thornton shouted.
“He's my dog,” Hal replied.There was blood on his face. “Get out of my way,or I'll hit you,too.I'm going to Dawson.”
Thornton stood between Hal and Buck and did not move.Hal took out his long knife,but Thornton knocked it out of his hand.Mercedes screamed again.Then Thornton picked up Hal's knife and cut Buck out of the harness.
Hal didn't want to fight,and Buck was not worth fighting for;he was nearly dead. Hal started the sledge and went down towards the river.Buck lifted his head and watched the sledge move away.Pike was leading,and Joe,Teek and Solleks were behind him.Hal was walking in front of the sledge and Mercedes was riding on it;Charles was walking behind.
