Jack's Monologue
I was riding on my thoroughbred horse, Jack, on the starry, snowy night of January 11, 1892. I was in the cold state of Nebraska looking for a place to fish. My stomach felt like a bottomless pit. I was starving! As Jack and I strolled through the woods, we saw a person walking in the distance. Jack and I also heard a ringing sound that was making us curious to see what this sound was coming from. We decided that we were going to go see what this mysterious man was doing on this cold night. As we approached the man, we noticed that the ringing sound was a bell. The bell was round and rough with a gold color. I started a conversation, “Hey, what are you doing out here.” The man replied, “I am lost and my horse flung me off because …show more content…
I am really hungry. Do you have any food.” I explained,” No we are hungry to. We were just looking for a lake to catch a fish out of. Do you want to join us?’’ “Sure”, he said. I asked,” What’s your name?” He replied,” My name is Bill.” I said,” Oh, okay Bill my Name is Rob.” That was when me and Bill stopped talking. I observed the woods around me. I thought I saw a lake. I did I saw the lake I had been searching all night. Jack glided toward the lake. Once we got closer, Bill noticed something. He said,” From this angle, that lake looks frozen.” I said,” Maybe, not. At least, I hope that the lake is not frozen. I have been looking all night for that one lake. Jack was running through the woods fast. I was so close to the lake when Jack got smoked by a coyote. The coyote hit Jack so hard that Jack was knocked out. The coyote ran off after Bill screamed and scared the coyote. We would have to wait until Jack regained his conscience. After about 2 hours Jack’s harness bells started ringing. He was back from being knocked out, so Bill and I jumped back on him. He went in the direction toward the lake. They had about five hundred fifty feet until they would arrive at the lake. All of a sudden, Jack came to an

    The third day the weather was all stormy and the river was all rough and it was hard to steer and the oars broke so he couldn't control where he was going and ended up crashing into rocks. He was fine, but some of his dogs weren't some of his dogs had gotten hurt so he had to stop the journey to Dawson to nurse his dogs back to health. Once the raft had stopped moving John Thornton got off of the raft with the few dogs that weren't hurt and grabbed the two who were injured and carried them to dry ground to see how bad their injuries were and how long they would take to heal. He estimated it would take like one two weeks to heal so that means it would take twice as long to get to Dawson than normal. So instead of one two weeks it will take two three weeks. Once his dogs are all healed and can walk normally again John Thornton then found things to use as oars. He and his dogs got back on the raft and headed to Dawson. On the way to Dawson they hit all good weather and calm water so the trip takes a lot quicker than John Thornton thought it would take. It took like four days to get to Dawson instead of one, two weeks. Once they got to Dawson they met up with everyone…

    But I hear nothing, nothing...only bells, Five bells, the bumpkin calculus of Time. Your echoes die, your voice is dowsed by Life, There's not a mouth can fly the pygmy strait Nothing except the memory of some bones Long shoved away, and sucked away, in mud; And unimportant things you might have done, Or once I thought you did; but you forgot, And all have now forgotten - looks and words And slops of beer; your coat with buttons off, Your gaunt chin and pricked eye, and raging tales Of Irish kings and English perfidy, And dirtier perfidy of publicans Groaning to God from Darlinghurst. Five bells.…

    I followed and Tim held the anchor position, last. The cloud cover continued to move into the area from below the mountain, and all the while I was keeping close tabs on it, I periodically attempted mental telepathy to possibly produce a glimpse of the surrounding peaks somewhere through the white layer. The chances still looked grim. After being in the vicinity of the lake for over an hour, I sensed Tim could be stalling, waiting for that lucky break in the clouds. If he was stalling, that I would have been okay with that as I’m sure a glimpse of Pillchuck’s peak would have been quite the spectacle. Ahead, a section of land jetted out to a point on the lake’s edge and something on it had caught Tim’s eye .Leaving the trail, I watched him navigate down onto the point at lake level where he began surveying the area. As I followed, I quickly understood what attracted him. The landscape and layout was another prime camp location. Our time on the point was short, gazing at the different views and taking pictures. Staging us looking into the sun, Tim took a few pictures of Holly and me, and in turn I snapped a few keepsakes of…
