"Nobody knows what it is," he whispered. "Some say it's a gorilla and others say it's a big lynx. Ol' Harry's the only one who saw it, an' he's so clawed and bit he can't describe it to nobody."

His heart leaped with sheer joy. She might just as well have said, "You have no right to run risks, now that you have me to consider.".
