Cat of Bubastes #6


Chapter 5, Part B

The men reach their destination. Then Chebron has a talk with his father. It is finally decided that Chebron will go to the place where game is more plentiful. The next day, they go and head towards the game place. Six dogs come with them; 4 are good for fighting lions and hyenas but 2 are good for hunting deer and things like that. During the while, they find a stag. Amuba and Chebron go towards a mound, while Jethro - without them knowing - goes to a little bush without them seeing. After 15 minutes, the dogs drive a stag back towards Chebron and Amuba. Both men take aim and miss, but then Jethro lets loose an arrow and hits the stag, then runs over to cut its throat and finish it.

More stags are started but the dogs are too tired by the first run to chase after any more deer that day. So they push on to their final destination for that day, and then settle down to relax for the evening.
