"'We must have fire, they said. 'Who will get it for us? "At last Manabush said that he would try to get fire for his tribe. "Manabush was a daring young Indian hunter. Like Hiawatha, he spent his life trying to help his people. He saw how fire was needed to warm the lodges in winter, and to cook the raw meat freshly killed in the hunt.
Every day he paddled his birch canoe close to the shore, hiding in nooks and bays. He had with him two boys, and with their aid the canoe was hauled every night into the thick woods. As they walked, they carefully covered their footprints with sand. Each day Manabush thought of his suffering people, whose supplies of food had been stolen by the enemy.
