And away went the trio, on the hunt for Yellow Elk, Pawnee Brown and poor Nellie Winthrop. "You fiend!" This was all Pawnee Brown could say, as with a face full of bitter hatred Yellow Elk advanced and applied the torch to the dry brush which encircled his feet. In vain the great scout endeavored to wrench himself free from the fire-stake.
The Indians were erecting a fire-stake, such as they had used in the wild west when some victim was to be roasted alive! "Heavens! can that be meant for me?" was the question he asked himself. The stake planted and fastened firmly, Yellow Elk heaped some fresh, dry brush around its bottom and then came up to Pawnee Brown.
"Pawnee Brown see the fire-stake?" he asked, his savage eyes gleaming like two stars. "I do, Yellow. Who is it for?" "Why does Pawnee Brown ask? Does he not deserve death?" "I suppose I do according to your notion." "Pawnee Brown shall burn he shall burn slowly," went on Yellow Elk, meaning that he would make the great scout's torture last as long as possible.
A moment later Yellow Elk nodded to the other Indians and all leaped forward and bound Pawnee Brown fast to the fire-stake. This done the redskins heaped the brush around the scout's feet. "Now the dirty white dog can die!" hissed Yellow Elk, as he advanced with a torch. "He can pray, but the white man's Great Father cannot save him! He must burn until his bones are as charcoal!"
