The officers of our frontier army know all about it, because they saw it happen. They saw the treaties broken, the thieving agents, the trespassing settlers, the outrages that goaded the deceived Indian to despair and violence, and when they were ordered out to kill him, they knew that he had struck in self-defense and was the real victim.

"You are str-str-strangers?" said the Oxonian, after a violent exertion to express himself, caused by an impediment in his speech. WAIFE. "Yes, sir, travellers. I trust we are not trespassing: this is not private ground, I think?" OXONIAN. "And if-f-f-f it were, my f-f-father would not war-n-n you off-ff f." "Is it your father's ground, then?

"May I request the pleasure of your name, young gentleman?" said the proprietor to Jack. Now Jack was always urbane and polite. "Certainly, sir; my name is Easy, very much at your service." "And you appear to me to be taking it very easy," replied the gentleman. "Pray, sir, may I enquire whether you are aware that you are trespassing?"
