야성의 절규(The Call of the Wild) - 10

  Three men came up and watched, laughing.

  "You've got a heavy load on that sledge," said one of them. "Why don't you leave the tent here in Skagway?"

  "How could we live without a tent?" asked Mercedes, throwing up her hands in the air.

  "It's spring now. You won't have any more cold weather."

  "I must have a tent," she answered, and helped Charles and Hal with the last few boxes.

  "Do you think that load will stay on?" asked another man.

  "Why shouldn't it?" asked Charles.

  "Well, it's a bit heavy on top. Do you think your dogs will be able to pull that?"

  "Of course they will," said Hal. The sledge was now ready to go. "Come on, dogs, pull!" he shouted.

  The dogs pulled as hard as they could, but the sledge did not move.
