Little pains smote them now and then in the chest, but they could not stop.

Their speed was now decreasing, but they knew that the speed of the Indians must be decreasing, too.

One wretched breathless child, panting with exhaustion; terror in his looks; agony in his eyes; large drops of perspiration streaming down his face; strains every nerve to make head upon his pursuers; and as they follow on his track, and gain upon him every instant, they hail his decreasing strength with joy.
