 Tom Linton and Jerry Quirk1 toiled2 slowly up the trail toward their cabin. Both men were bundled thickly in clothing, both bewhiskered visages bore grotesque4 breath-masks of ice; even their eyebrows5 were hoary6 with frost. The partners were very tired.
 
Pausing in the chip-littered space before their door, they gazed down the trail to a mound7 of gravel8 which stood out raw and red against the universal whiteness. This mound was in the form of a truncated9 cone10 and on its level top was a windlass and a pole bucket track. From beneath the windlass issued a cloud of smoke which mounted in billows, as if breathed forth11 from a concealed12 chimney—smoke from the smothered15 drift fires laid against the frozen face of pay dirt forty feet below the surface. Evidently this fire was burning to suit the partners; after watching it a moment, Tom took a buck-saw and fell stiffly to work upon a dry spruce log which lay on the saw-buck; Jerry spat17 on his mittens18 and began to split the blocks as they fell.
