At the same time Rogers, McKinstry, Martin, and I set out to see what force the enemy had at Crown Point. We put our birches into the water after dark. As I stepped into our birch, Jacob said: "Good-by, Ben Comee! Never see you again. Heap Canawaugha Indians at Crown Point. Gray Wolf's friends. All want Ben Comee's scalp. Me heap sorry." "Good-by, Jacob. Take care you don't lose your own hair."
Cabot made mental note of the fact that the Blossom spoke her spirit pidgin-English with a marked Down-East accent. Before he had time to notice more, the control announced that she had a message. The circle stirred in anticipation. Primmie wiggled in fearful ecstasy. "Listen!" commanded Little Cherry Blossom. "Everybodee harkee. Spirit comee heree. He say-ee " "Ow-ooo-ooo ooo OOO!!"
There's lots of comfort in all three of those things. But I should never have thought of giving them to the widow and the orphans." "Injuns ask, 'What that man's name? 'Ben Comee in Captain Rogers's company. They give my Injun, pipe, wampum, and powder horn with carving on it for you. They say: 'Ben Comee heap big paleface to kill Gray Wolf.
"You goodee pijjin and chin chin when you comee," he only said, "and when you wanchee chow-chow, you comee Ching Wang and him gettee you chop chop!"
I barely tasted mine, for I had no heart to drink with the besotted fools. We bade them good-by, I took up the things which Rogers had bought, and we walked away. "Well, Comee, we've settled the nation's debt. That's one good thing off our hands. There's another thing I wish we could get rid of as easily. The old country has sent us over some curious commanders.
Now that the Indians are gone, you could take up some of that intervale land up the river, that they talk about, and then I'm here, and if Benjamin Boaz Comee wants Ruth, he must follow her. Ben, I like my own way." "I like your own way too, and will live wherever you please, provided it be with you." I returned home, and found Amos telling Davy of our adventures.
The Indians were driven off; and the next day David Comee was found lying in the water of the river meadow, scalped, and stripped of his armour and clothes. Another Scotch redemptioner, named William Munroe, who was shipped to this country in the John and Sara, settled at Cambridge Fields or Lexington.
"Your funny Chinaman has been doing some stunts fur us." "Oh, he is liable to do almost anything," was the reply. "What is the matter, Hop? Who told you that you could come over here?" "Allee samee nothing the mattee, Misler Wild," answered Hop, shaking his head and looking serious. "Nobody say me comee over here; me comee allee samee, so be."
You are very strong in the arms, and if I were you, I'd give him a grip at first just to show him your strength, and to put a little fear into him." Father stepped up, and said: "Jonas, what are you up to? Ben can never wrestle that man." "Neighbour Comee! You don't know what Ben can do at wrestling, and I do. And faith! I have a suspicion he's the best wrestler in the county."
I know that they have killed four or five hundred good New England men, beside the women and children they have slain and carried off. This river has a swift current, and we must put our packs on our shoulders and join arms, with the tallest and strongest up the river, so as to help each other. Come, Martin, and you, Comee, let's see how you can keep your legs to-day."
