Nelwang's eyes flashed as he flourished his tomahawk about and cried, "I see it now, Missi! I shall win her from them all. Yakin and I will be strong for you all our days." Next morning Yakin's house was found deserted. They sent to all the villages around, but no one had seen her.
Penitence opens all the heart of God "To-day shalt thou be with Me in Paradise." SOME most absurd and preposterous experiences were forced upon us by the habits and notions of the people. Amongst these I recall very vividly the story of Nelwang's elopement with his bride.
Yakin had determined to show the extent of her Christianity by the amount of clothing she could carry upon her person. Being a Chief's widow before she became Nelwang's bride, she had some idea of state occasions, and appeared dressed in every article of European apparel, mostly portions of male attire, that she could beg or borrow from about the premises!
In a few seconds Yakin entered; and if Nelwang's bearing and appearance were rather inconsistent with the feeling of worship, what on earth was I to do when the figure and costume of Yakin began to reveal itself marching in? The first visible difference betwixt a Heathen and a Christian is, that the Christian wears some clothing, the Heathen wears none.
