The sufferer is a woman, and as we look closer we recognize her as Say Koitza, the wife of Zashue. He must hasten his steps if he wishes to find her upon earth, for she is dying! It is very still in the room.
"Sa tao, trust in me, and believe also that Okoya is good, and Mitsha better yet. Be kind to both and be silent." She stepped into the court-yard, and Say Koitza remained standing in the doorway. The rain had ceased; the sky was clear again, all ablaze with the richest golden hues over the crest of the big houses. It was near sunset.
Of all the less numerous groups, Tzitz hanutsh was almost the only one who took the side of Tanyi under all circumstances, and this was due exclusively to the fact that the marriage of Zashue with Say Koitza bound the two clans together.
Tell me, Okoya," her voice changed with the change of the subject, "does Shotaye Koitza often come to see your mother?" This question was highly imprudent. But Hannay was often imprudent. Smart and sly in a certain way, she was equally thoughtless in other matters. The query so sudden, so abrupt, and so uncalled for must, she ought to have foreseen, look extremely suspicious.
If afterward, as she confidently believed, Tyope should come up with the warriors against the Tehuas, he would find everything prepared for a disastrous reception. Matters looked exceedingly promising for her plans. For all that, she did not forget Say Koitza; but she had been to some extent forewarned, and as soon as Say heard of Shotaye's absence she must suspect the truth.
"Shotaye used to go farther," objected the elder. "Shotaye," Hayoue muttered, "Shotaye was you know what she was! There is none like her in the world. What she may be doing in case she is alive, nobody can tell." "I wish I knew her to be with Say Koitza now," Zashue sighed. "Shotaye is dead," his brother asserted.
Through the loophole in the wall an occasional draught of chilly air entered. Say Koitza clung to her friend's shoulder, shivering and trembling from fear as well as from cold. In the centre of the dark room Shotaye had placed a few ears of black corn, and on them two bundles of owl's feathers, each tied to a chip of obsidian.
"It strikes me," Zashue still objected, "that if the koitza and the little ones were on this side of the river we must have seen their tracks." "But it rains, brother," Hayoue replied, looking up at the sky. "The Shiuana send us rain every night and often during the day, and it washes away the footprints. Besides, we have merely followed the river thus far, and our people may have turned inland.
"In that case" Tyope flared up and grasped his club, speaking in the Queres language and with a vibrating tone "why don't you look for a companion in your own tribe? Mitsha Koitza does not care for a husband who sneaks around in the timber like a wolf, and whose only feat consists in frightening the old women of the Tyuonyi!" The Navajo stared before him with apparent stolidity. Tyope continued,
Coolidge was the life of the party and charmed all by her wit and beauty and vivacity. . . . She even persuaded old Ambrosio, the grizzled civil chief of the pueblo, to entrust to her care his most precious treasure, his lovely and charming daughter, Miss Barbara Koitza.
