Her father's farm was about four miles away.It was night, bit she was able to follow the path in the moonlight. She started to run across the dark moor.
Sir Hugo went to the girl's room. lt was empty and Sir Hugo was terribly angry. He ran to ho=is men and jumped onto the table where they were drinking. He kicked the plates and glasses off the table. 'Fetch the horses!' he shouted. 'Get the girl!'
They all ran outside and jumped onto their horses. Sir Hugo kept a pack of wild dogs for hunting.'Let the dogs find her!' he shouted. 'The Devil can take me if I do not catch her!'
The dogs ran out across the dark moor. Sir Hugo and his men rode after them. The dogs barked and Sir Hugo shouted.
Then they heard another noise. It was louder than the noise of barking and shouting. The dogs stopped and listened. They were afraid.
Th men heard the noise. It was a loud and deep howling sound - the sound of a huge dog howling at the moon. The men stopped their horse, but Sir Hugo rode on. He wanted to catch the girl.
In the moonlight, the men saw a strange black animal. It looked liked a dog with huge, fiery eyes. But it was as big as a horse. All the men became very frightned.
Th huge black dog jumped on Sir Hugo Baskerville and killed him. The other men ran away into the night and Sir Hugo was never seen again.
