He saw them a moment afterward, however, for, while he was absorbed in that particular part of the fight at Glen's Falls, where Hawk-Eye snapped his unloaded rifle at the Indian who was making off with the canoe in which the scout had left his ammunition, a figure glided quickly but noiselessly into the room, and stopped behind the boy's chair.
Do not believe evil of my father, old Mohegan, for he is just and good. The brother of Miquon is good, and he will do right. I have said it to Hawk-eye -I have said it to the Young Eagle that the brother of Miquon would do justice.
The young outlaw came in, hawk on fist, and its hood off, for it was a pet, short, sturdy, upright, brown-haired, blue-eyed, ill-dressed, with hard hands and sun-burnt face, but with the hawk-eye of her father and her mother, and the hawks among which she was bred. She looked the priest over from head to foot, till he was abashed. "A Frenchman!" said she, and she said no more.
Let my children wait without, and if the evil spirit appears beat him down with clubs." Leaving the Indians with a certainty that they would not enter the cavern and discover Magua, Duncan and the scout made their way to the hut where Uncas lay bound. Entering with David, they released the Mohican, and immediately hastened to take the next step suggested by the resourceful Hawk-eye.
Long Tom Coffin, Harvey Birch, Hawk-Eye, and Chingachgook are physically and morally true to life itself.
The other was a European, with the quick, roving eye, sun-tanned cheeks, and rough dress of a hunter. "Listen, Hawk-eye," said the Indian, addressing his companion, "and I will tell you what my fathers have said, and what the Mohicans have done. We came and made this land ours, and drove the Maquas who followed us, into the woods with the bears.
Does his hawk-eye see nothing more?" "Bufflo!" exclaimed Bunco, as he drew up and gazed intently at a particular spot in the wilderness. "Ay, lad, it is buffalo an' no mistake. I know'd I should find 'em there," said the trapper, with a quiet chuckle, as he examined the priming of his rifle. "Now, friends, we'll have to approach them quietly.
Alice and Cora were near at hand, and Duncan was all eager to make his way to their side. Hawk-eye so far humoured his whim as to consent to his visiting the encampment disguised as a medicine man. As soon as he entered the camp he declared that he had been sent by the Grand Monarque to heal the ills of the Hurons.
Suddenly there was a sharp crack of a rifle, and his assailant fell dead at his feet. At the same moment Hawk-eye and the two Mohicans dashed into the encampment. In a few moments the six Indians, taken by surprise, were killed; only Magua lived. He seemed to be at the mercy of Chingachgook. Already he lay apparently lifeless.
Who but Daniel Boone, Cooper's great hero Hawk-eye, of the `Last of the Mohicans' Deer-slayer Leather-stocking! He has been here before us ay, brave spirit! Long before other hunters had dared to venture far into the territory of the scalping, torturing, yelling red-skin, this bold heart had pushed westward, fearless and alone, until his eagle eye rested on the great Pacific. It must have been he.
