Since the beginning of the winter they had travelled
eighteen hundred miles, dragging sleds the whole weary
distance; and eighteen hundred miles will tell upon life of
the toughest. Buck stood it, keeping his mates up to their
work and maintaining discipline, though he, too, was
very tired. Billee cried and whimpered regularly in his
sleep each night. Joe was sourer than ever, and Sol-leks
was unapproachable, blind side or other side.
O the description of Buck "maintaining discipline"
O the statement that Buck is also "very tired"
O the description of Joe as "sourer than ever"
