While seated upon the bank and occupied in this manner, he was startled by a hand being placed upon his shoulder, and the familiar grunt of an Indian sounding in his ear. On looking up, he at once recognized the grim features of Wild-cat, and saw himself in the power of some half a dozen savages. "Me wanty you," said Wild-cat, quietly. "Kitchokema give much for Long Knife. Come!"
"But could not leave the Big Knife squaw to greet him," added the Indian. "Why, I am not particularly fond of being hurried in my affairs, you know."

"The Shemanoes " "Well?" said Girty.
"You and your band are here safe, I perceive; and by ! you have timed it well, too, for we have only headed you by half an hour." "Ugh!" grunted Wild-cat, with that look and gutteral sound peculiar to the Indian. "Kitchokema has learned Peshewa is here!" "Come! come!" answered the renegade, in a somewhat nettled manner; "no insinuations! I saw Peshewa when he arrived."
The Indian heard him through, without moving a muscle of his seemingly blank features, and then answered, a little haughtily: "Kitchokema plans all, and gives his red brother all the danger; but Peshewa is brave, and fears not." "And do you think it's through fear?" asked Girty, angrily. "Peshewa makes no charges against his brother," answered Wild-cat, quietly.
