Summary Of Murlock's Breakdown
In the dim twilight of dawn, before sunrise and in his half-conscious state, having just awoken from a deep sleep, Murdock imagines that he sees a great hairy bear trying to enter the cabin through the open window. With the rifle in his hand, quaking with fear, his one thought being to protect his wife’s body, he aims and delivers a single thunderous shot. The shot ricochets off the window frame and is followed by a sound of expending air.
Rushing over to the table, Murlock finds it bare and his wife’s body missing. Simultaneously the dark heavily bearded figure disappears from the window. Frantically searching the little cabin in the growing light of day break, Murlock kicks something soft and hears a low moan. Dropping his gaze to his feet
