"The Head Buffalo, with the morning, will offer to him that which he holds dearest." The Head Buffalo looked upon the priests, and said "The Head Buffalo fears the Great Spirit. He will kill a deer, and, in the morning, it shall be burned to the Great Spirit." Chenos said to him
When the morning came the warrior went to the forest and killed a deer which he brought to Chenos, who prepared it for a sacrifice, and sang a song while the flesh lay on the fire. "Let us listen," said Chenos, stopping the warriors in their dance. "Let us see if the Great Spirit hears us." They listened, but could hear nothing. Chenos asked him why he did not speak, but he did not answer.
"Brothers and warriors," said Chenos, "our sons did wrong when they broke in upon the sacred dance the Walkullas made to their god, and he lent his thunder to the strange warriors. Let us not draw down his vengeance further by doing we know not what. Let the beautiful woman remain this night in the wigwam of the council, covered with skins, and let none disturb her.
"You have told the council how the battle was fought and who fell; you have shown the spent quiver and the scalps, but you have not spoken of your prisoner. The Great Spirit keeps nothing hid from his priests, of whom Chenos is one. He has told me you have a prisoner, one with tender feet and a trembling heart." "Let any one say the Head Buffalo ever lied," replied the warrior.
