All at once this --- man, heretofore so sure, so self-suffi- cient, so incredulou/ef anything ex- cept his own continued glory and hap- piness and life, was face to face with. the fisrt fear -the simple, primitive :- fear of death. Was that his fate at the journey's end? Not mere trial, mere hardship and stress and adventure, but uncom- promising death! Was he experienc- ing a premonition? Was that training camp soon to be a reality, as terribly real as these cold seas and this sky of stars instead of a mere figment of an old man's childish fancy? The thought troubled and haunted him, but it proved to bre the best pos- sible influence for the man himself. For the first time in hies life Ned Cor- net was awake. He had been dream-, ing before: for the first time he had wakened to life. Fear, disaster, the dreadful omnipotence of fate were no longer empty words to him: they were stern and immutable realities.
