Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Strange Ride of Morrowbie Jukes
On the 23d December, 1884, I felt a little feverish. There was a full moon at the time, and, in couse quenco, every dog near my tent was haying it. The brutes assembled in twos and threes and drove me fran tic. A few days previously I had shot one loud-mouthed singer and suspended his carcass in terrorem about fifty yards from my tent-door, but his friends fell upon, fought for, and ultimately devoured the body and, as it seemed to me, sang their hymns of thanksgiving afterwards with renewed energy.
