There is no false melodrama, no striving for thrilling. effects, no synthetic "love" interest." But it's all there -drama, intense and roman- tic-just as nature unfolded it' for two years, high in the wilderness of the Sierras, in an untamed forest that man had never even sean.

With regard to the $200 from the Kin Lee Arm, the defendant had in- structed the accountant to 'write it in the books, and was himself puzzled to sea that it had not been entered.
