I suddenly realized that I was enjoying myself more than in a long time. But the test was to come. When Pemaou had heard all he wished, he would aim the spear at my throat, and so, though I threw negligently, I watched like a starved cat. I heard the council agree upon a decisive measure, and I knew that the Huron's moment had arrived. He seized it.
At the moment of lifting the canoe from the ground, the limb was placed within it, and thus was carried back to the edge of the river. Lying flat upon his face, this limb was about the thickness of the Huron's waist, and by skillfully balancing the boat, it was interposed directly between him and his foes.
The soldier knew there must be cause for this haste of his friend, and acting upon the hint which he had given him to ask no further questions, he took the hand of Miss Prescott, and the party moved forward at a rapid walk. Little did he suspect the true cause of the Huron's silence.
He had progressed a considerable distance thus, when the Huron's gait decreased very rapidly. He was now in the vicinity of the river, where he had left his canoe drawn up on the bank. It was necessary to reconnoiter thoroughly before venturing to approach it. Accordingly, he halted. The movement of the panther in approaching his foe was not more stealthy and cautious than was his.
Myeerah, you have named me rightly. The Eagle can never be happy unless he is free." "The Eagle can be happy with his mate. And what life could be freer than a Huron's? I hope always that you will grow content." "It has been a long time now, Myeerah, since I have spoken with you of my freedom. Will you ever free me? Or must I take again those awful chances of escape?
But, he was equal to the task, and never hesitated for a moment except to listen for some sign of his enemies. The Shawnees, by the merest accident, had discovered the Huron's canoe and examined it.
"And you think, then, Jaap's prisoner has had a hand in this, and that the war-path is open to revenge as well as public service that we are hunted less for our scalps than to put a plaster on the Huron's back?" "Sartain. T'ree canoe go by on lake t'at Muss, you call him know him, well. He no want sleep till back get well. See how he use nigger!
