When the danger is great, it is my gift to see it, and know it, and to try to avoid it; else would my scalp long since have been drying in a Mingo wigwam. On this lake, however, I can see no trail, and I feel it my duty to submit; though I think we ought to remember there is such a person as Mabel Dunham on board. But here comes her father, and he will naturally feel for his own child."
Mingo Junction "Mingo Bottom" of old was an interesting locality in frontier days. On this fertile river beach was long one of the strongest of the Mingo villages. During the last week of May, 1782, Crawford's little army rendezvoused here, en route to Sandusky, a hundred and fifty miles distant, and intent on the destruction of the Wyandot towns.
The servitude cannot be long; and, when the motive for submitting to it ceases to exist, I will shake it off like the dust from my feet. Is he a Mingo, that you will call him enemy? said Mohegan. The Delaware warrior sits still, and waits the time of the Great Spirit. He is no woman, to cry out like a child.
He likes the gal, and the gal likes him, and it surpassed Huron sarcumventions to keep two young people apart, where there was so strong a feelin' to bring 'em together." "And Hawkeye and Chingachgook came into our camp on this errand, only?" "That's a question that'll answer itself, Mingo! Yes, if a question could talk it would answer itself, to your parfect satisfaction.
"What sign, or signal, told the young maiden that her lover was nigh?" asked the Huron with more curiosity than it was usual for him to betray. Deerslayer laughed again, and seem'd to enjoy the success of the exploit, with as much glee as if he had not been its victim. "Your squirrels are great gadabouts, Mingo," he cried still laughing-"yes, they're sartainly great gadabouts!
They lost their property in the Civil War, and again exhibited themselves in England in 1869. They died in 1874, one living two hours and a half after the death of the other." The general retired from the rostrum; and the party separated, Mrs. Mingo ascending the fore-rigging, while the others went to various parts of the ship to see the shores, which were still in sight.
There is good in the talk of my father, said Mohegan, stopping short, and causing those who Were behind him to pause also; it is the talk of Miquon. The white man may do as his fathers have told him; but the Young Eagle has the blood of a Delaware chief in his veins; it is red, and the stain it makes can only be washed out with the blood of a Mingo.

"You, then, suspect it is a portion of that people among whom Cora resides?" The scout nodded his head in assent, though he seemed anxious to waive the further discussion of a subject that appeared painful.
The Great Spirit wishes you well, and He has taken away the chief, lest you should be led astray by his wily tongue, and get to be a Mingo in your disposition, as you were already in your company." "Arrowhead was a great chief," returned the woman proudly. "He had his merits, he had; and he had his demerits, too. But June you are not desarted, nor will you be soon.
You can see the truth of this in the Mingo names, which, in their own tongue, signify the same things as the Delaware names, at least, so they tell me, for I know little of that tribe, unless it be by report, and no one can say they are as honest or as upright a nation. I put no great dependence, therefore, on names."
