"Are we not to strike?" asked the Oneida wistfully, as the Mohican came swiftly up the rock followed by the Wyandotte, who seemed inclined to lag. "Why did you quit your post?" I asked him bluntly.
Fernando was sleeping when the discovery was made, but was soon roused and saw soldiers hauling in the Oneida so as to lay her broadside to the approaching enemy.

The troops then re-embarked for Vicksburg. Natchez surrendered on the 12th of May to Commander S. Phillips Lee, of the Oneida, the advance of Farragut's fleet.

Yes I see you recognize those names many places in this country have been named for Indians." "Are you an Iroquois?" asked Betty, rather timidly, for she feared lest the question should be considered impolite. "I am a Kiowa," announced the redman proudly.
The Oneida and Tuscarora Nations shall be secured in the possession of the lands on which they are settled." The commissioner then inquired into the merits of the complaint of the Tuscaroras, which the Iroquois affirmed; the commissioner then said to them, that it is not right to make a contract, or to grant anything without faith; it is only honorable when you adhere to your stipulation.
"At that moment, according to arrangements, the friendly Oneida who had taken a circuitous route approached the camp from another direction with a belt. On his way he met two or three straggling Indians of his tribe, who joined him, and they all confirmed the story of Yan Yost. They pretended that a bird had brought them the news that the valley below was swarming with warriors.
