Sample text
After some time, when there are no other people willing to pit a dog against White Fang, there appears a "Faro-dealer," a man named Tim Keenan, who arrives with the first bulldog ever to enter the territory of the North. In White Fang's encounter between Cherokee, the bulldog, they, at first, do not even want to fight. Neither dog has ever seen anything like the other. Finally, however, Tim Keenan is able to coax the bulldog into stalking White Fang. The contest, then, is between the quickness of White Fang, as opposed to the steadfast determination and mechanical jaws of the bulldog, and White Fang becomes confused because he leaps forward and bites the bulldog, and yet the bulldog seems not to be distracted from his constant and deliberate stalking of White Fang.
They assume that he would be impossible to domesticate. Thus, when they leave the cabin, they lock the front door, and Matt goes out the back door, locking it. White Fang is left inside. " He is "voicing utter woe. " When Weedon Scott boards his homeward-bound ship, he finds White Fang sitting on the deck of the ship. Upon examining the animal, Matt and Weedon Scott decide that White Fang must have broken through the window in the cabin in order to follow his master. Realizing anew the degree of devotion which White Fang has for him, Scott decides to take the animal with him to the Southland despite the fact that he believes that the dog will never be able to become civilized, much less endure the hot climate.
Thus, when Judge Scott sentences him to fifty years in prison, Hall threatens to get his revenge--eventually--on the Judge. Years pass and, meanwhile, Jim Hall becomes a thoroughly hardened criminal, mainly because of his brutal treatment while in prison. But while he is in solitary confinement, he manages to escape, killing three guards while doing so. When the Scott family hears about Hall's escape, everyone except the Judge is frightened. The Judge's wife, Alice, secretly goes downstairs every night and lets White Fang in so that he can sleep in the hallway.
