"Still there was the memory of the sugar among them, and it happened that one day in the council somebody said: "'Why not send to Nanahboozhoo? "Good!" shouted Minnehaha; "that is just what I thought they would do." "Well, hold on," said her more matter-of-fact brother; "just as like as not Nanahboozhoo would give them salt instead of sugar, if he were in one of his tantrums."
Passing through the village of Little Canada, we rode on to Minnehaha Prairie along its gentle, verdant slope, and lapse of shining waters of Twelve Lakes, graced with the names of Como, Garda, etc., and adorned with many a pretty boat and sail. A few miles further brought us to the upper terrace of beautiful St. Paul.
"I think it's a shame you were treated so badly," said Minnehaha. "But don't you worry Miss Eleanor will know what to do. She won't let them treat you unfairly. Is she going to find out about things in the village?" "Yes." "Well, you needn't worry any more, then.
And if she could send her away and remain in her stead She gave a soft, musical ripple of laughter. So pretty Minnehaha must have laughed when Longfellow caught the sound in his charmed brain. She put up her dagger. She raised Jeanne, wondering, but no longer afraid. This was the miracle she had prayed for and it had come to pass. "Listen. You shall go.
Here comes Minnehaha, and we ask her the cause of such an early gathering of the Indians, and the reason why they are so unusually interested in some matter unknown to us. "Why, don't you know?" the bright little girl promptly replies. "They have come to form a Naming Council, to give my little baby sister an Indian name.
Minnehaha was eager for a story about the sweet birdies or the brilliant flowers, but the young invalid had his way this time, and Mary proceeded to tell the story of the Indians' idea as to the origin of sickness and disease. "Long, long ago," said Mary, "all the animals and birds on this earth lived in peace and harmony with the human family.
And Minnehaha is going to teach me to swim this afternoon. She'll teach you, too, if you like." But Bessie only smiled in answer. She could swim already, but she said nothing about it, since no one asked her, seeming to take it for granted that, like Zara, she was unused to the water.
She had read about girls who had gone to the city and earned money, lots of money, without working any harder than she had always done. Perhaps could do that, too. "You talk to Wanaka about that when she comes back," said Minnehaha, who guessed what Bessie was thinking. "You see her. She'll explain it to you. And you're going to be happy, Bessie. I'm sure of that.
"Well done!" shouted the children when the old woman stopped. They were greatly delighted with her performance. Kinnesasis, however, who, as well as his wife, was now a church member, professed to be much shocked at seeing her thus dancing, as though in the wild excitement of the Ghost Dance. But both Sagastao and Minnehaha stood up for the old wife.
My guess would be 'Ha, ha!" "What!" says Old Hickory. "By the Sizzling Sisters, you're right! A message! But from whom?" "Why not from Minnie?" I asks winkin' at Mr. Robert. "Minnie who?" demands Old Hickory. "Why, from Minnehaha?" says I, and I can hear Piddie gasp at my pullin' anything like that on the president of the Corrugated Trust.
