by afternoon, perrault, who was in a hurry to be on the trail

with his despatches, returned with two more dogs. "billee"

and "joe" he called them, two brothers, and true huskies

both. sons of the one mother though they were, they were

teammates.

tree.

c. it is a part of the rising action that describes a brutal dog

fight.
