Thirty days after leaving Dawson City , the team arrived back in Skagway . They were very , very tired Buck now weighed only fifty kilograms , and the other dogs were also very thin .
离开道桑镇30天后，队伍回到了斯开格威。他们筋疲力尽。巴克瘦得只剩下50公斤，别的狗也是瘦骨伶仃。
Dub had pulled hard and well all the way from Skagway , but he had hurt his leg.It got worse and worse until finally Hal had to shoot him.The six new dogs , now weak and ill from hunger and hard work , died next .
They were not ill ; they just needed a long , long rest . But at Skagway there were mountains of letters waiting to go north , so the men had to buy new , strong dogs The old ones , now useless for work , were sold .
