Making himself a | little barricade cf boxes so that his flash glow could not be noticed out- Iside, he began examining the book.

It was made of two matched horns, with the butt ends fitted to- gether, wrapped with sinew and ce- mented so cleverly that they looked like one piece. “It’s a ram-horn bow, John.
