Behind the New Grand Hotel, in the Catskills, is an amphitheatre of mountain that is held to be the place of which the Mohicans spoke when they told of people there who worked in metals, and had bushy beards and eyes like pigs.
He wants some music for a ballet, and you are hardly fit to scribble on sheets of paper and do your work, dearie. So I understood, things being so, that a M. Garangeot was to be asked to set the Mohicans to music " "Garangeot!" roared Pons in fury. "Garangeot! a man with no talent; I would not have him for first violin!
"It must be Ezra Graves come for the Gibbon," she said. "He's early." And she went to the door. Cynthia thought it was not Ezra. Then came Miss Lucretia's voice from the entry: "Why, Mr. Worthington! Have you read the Last of the Mohicans already?" There he stood, indeed, the man of leisure, and to-day he wore his beaver hat.
But," glancing his eyes at the Mohicans, "let us remember we are men without a cross, and let us teach these natives of the forest that white blood can run as freely as red, when the appointed hour is come." Duncan turned quickly in the direction indicated by the other's eyes, and read a confirmation of his worst apprehensions in the conduct of the Indians.
Brisetout a fine courtesy, and heard Gaudissart remark to his mistress: "Can Garangeot do the dance-music for the Mohicans in twelve days? If he helps me out of my predicament, he shall have Pons' place."
The Talisman is noble doings, too, but not up-to-date.

And I got five books Aladdin, and The Mohicans, and Treasure Island, and King Arthur and Crusoe!"

"Now that you have agreed upon a name," continued the colonel, "what do you say to having a real Scout dinner in the woods?" "That s-strikes me favorably," exclaimed Pepper.

Uncas, the panther of his tribe, the eldest son of the Lenape, the wisest Sagamore of the Mohicans! Tell me, ye Delawares, has Tamenund been a sleeper for a hundred winters?"
He soon stopped again, and waited for the whole party to come up. "I scent the Hurons," he said, speaking to the Mohicans; "yonder is open sky, through the tree-tops, and we are getting too nigh their encampment.
