by Sydney rel-unen CHAPTER IV

The whole ' ldent had develop- ed eo suddenly that Biount herd- ly had time to realise the risk he had taken.

At one moment. he had been practically rmigned to the march baoktooomg),andal1hopeIo!ea- cape that day had been complete- ly banished 'from his mind. And the noort, he had assaulted s. guard within full View of his fellows. and wes racing through the tangled undergrowth for his very life.

Luckily for him the very unex- peetedness of his sudden action robbed the other guards of I. sec- ond or two. and by the time they realised what was happening he was already among the trees.

Two shots rang out almost si- multaneously, and a bullet zipped past him within inchu, but s mo- ment later his flying figure was lost to view from the clearing, and the immediate danger of being brought down at the very begin- ning of his dash for freedom was

past. And as though fate was favour- ing his audacity, -the elements

;themselves chose that moment to come to his aid and prevent any possibility of an immediate pur- Isuit.

As he burst his way recklemly

.lhl-ough the trailing lianas and rank fern growth in the deep gloom under the trees, the sullen itwllight was suddenly rent with a Iglareof livid violet fire and e ;split second later a stupendous hollow of thunder shook the quak- ; mg air. It was deafening - bewildering. tit sounded like nothing so much ' as a whole vast city crashing down in awful ruin. Backwards and for- wards it rolled across the darkllng heavens with a terrifying persis- tence - a demoniac avalanche of sound - and the glare lightning leapt and flickered through it like some devil's torch.

It seemed to go on and on for minutes - and rolling and crash- ing in a stupefying orgy of clam- our -- and it was still at its height when the rain arrived.

It came with a deep roar that instantly subdued and diminished the bellowing artillery of the thun- der, and it came down as if the very sluice-gates of heaven had been shattered and their contents let loose. so dense was its volume that the glare of the lightning showed as no more than a. pale glow in the darkness under the trees. and the interlaced branches overhead were as powerlem to withstand it as though their mat- ted foliage had been tissue paper.

Many Mex-In Hawks. Duck Hawks, Kiildeers, Robins. and Grows are,once more preotioeily on their horns grounds. Cenede Geese, veriom kinds of Duokl. Bluebirds. Phoebes. Tree srwallowl. Fox, song. and Savannah sparrows are nearing the end-of their Jour- neys. But. there is no choir here yet. Two re s for this stand out beyond :11 others: exceptions. the birds that return extremely early do not happen to be the good songstere; end it is not usual for males to sing their best until they have landed in the neighborhood where they mean to stay, are choosing their terri- tory, and advertising for a. wife. However. we should now be or the alert for the soloists. After the long. silent winter we are all agog for the first Robin song of the season. City dwellers have es good an opportunity of hearing this as their otherwise more for- tunate, rustic. bird ,watohing ac- quaintances. Not too for from the busy streets I. hapvll Bong Spar- row lifts his little head and gives us a piece of music composed ell by himself. The gentle Bluebird is being ousted from his old nest- ing holes by the more pushing Sterling, and so those of us who hear that eoft, sweet voice are lucky indeed.

The short song of the Fox spu- row, louder and more appealing than that of any other Sparrow. is distinctive. We might hear him as he passes through to his nesting grounds north of our cities and towns. Look for him in the dead leaves that lie under the bushes in early spring. Tiliere he kicks vigorously with both feet until he dug up snail Animal life from the leaf mould.

The voice of the tiny Winter Wren is extraordinary. and a treat to hear in early April. Unless you see the little fellow (absolutely Wren-like in appearance) in the act of singing, you really cannot believe that the re-marltable song can possibly come from that kind of a bird. and one so small. 1t'Ls I loud and ringing. The melody "rip- ples along", as someone has ex- pressed it, and then stops, most abruptly. His favourite perch is a log. or the root of some fallen tree.

The arrival of migrants lasts from mid-March until June. But Birdland's best choir is heard when the majority first reach their Canadian homes and are set- tling down. to business - from shortly before the end of May to the middle of June. At that time

by the drumming roar of it. Blount continued to plunge blindly on. His mind was obseued by only one thought - to put as great a dis- tance as possible between himself and his pursue:-s. Blundering mad- ly forward through the darkness. fighting his way blindly through the tangled undergrowth and bruising himself against the un- seen trunks of trees. he fought his way onward like some dement- ed creature. The water beat down on his unprotected head and shoulders with the force of a catar act, and under ts sheer weight he ran on with bowed head and out stretched, grotping hands, as though he was playing in some mad game of blind manls buff.

No human creature could have kept up such a pace for long under those conditions. but he drove him- self forward relentlessly till his last ounce of strength gave out and he stum-bled forward on to his knees and remained with hunched shoulders under the deluge-gasp ing painfully for breath and utter- ly spent.

Altogether he had probably cov- ered no more than three hundred yards from the clearing. but as he knelt there with his knees sinking into the sudden ground and the rain sluicing down Shin back as freely as though he had been no- ked, he realised that he was safe for the time. Even if the pursuit had been organised at once, they could not have followed his trail in the darkness - and certainly they could not have made his speed. It took desperation and the stark fear of death or recapture to compass such a. feat.

With the realisation he recov- ered il certain measure of his calmness. and as the mad thunp- mg of his heart eased down and his sobbing breathing became eas- ier. it oocllrredio him that the

of year the bird chorus at dawn and at sunset is absolutely beyond description.

Can birds fly at night?

chances were that they had not

even attempted to set out after him yet. Obviously, the sergeants first thought would be for thel safekeeping of the remalnlngl prisoners. who might be impelled- to follow his example, and untllI they were secured. he would not have been at liberty to dispense with any of the guards. Then the breaking of the storm would not have made things, any easier for them - caught in the open as they were - and altogether it seemed likely that they would have had their hands too full to think about pursuit yet.

Still, he had no intention of ileavlng any thing to chance now that he had succeeded in the first part of his enterprise, and as soon as he had recovered himself sufficiently to stagger to his feet again, he began to move forward once more through the torrential downpour - trusting to luck that he was still heading in the" right direction.

Actually the first fury of the storm was passing now. and the deluge had abated sufficiently to allow the rolling crackle of the thunder to be heard when its met. It was still terrlfioally heavy. but not to be compared with its inl- tlal onslaught. and he found the going considerably easier. The al- most continual flicker of the lightning penetrated through the dense foliage overhead. and by its vivid glare he found himself able to pick his way through the drenched .unde.rgl-owth and avoid collision with this wetly gleaming tree.
