Chief want venison, and he must hunt. Just like squaw in pale-face wigwam work, work sweep, sweep cook, cook never know when work done. So hunter hunt- -hunt hunt." "And for that matter, Chippewa, just like squaw in the red man's village, too. Hoe, hoe dig, dig carry, carry so that she never knows when she may sit down to rest."
"What are you to him, pale-face?" she said, her eyes peering into the pot. "Nothing more to him than you are, madame," the girl answered wearily. "I'll cure because I want, not because you ask me, pretty brat." Elise's heart gave a leap: these very herbs were for Valmond! The old woman had travelled far to get the medicaments immediately she had heard of Valmond's illness.
Still, by a very natural association, they supposed the carving meant to represent that the animal they saw was of a strength sufficient to carry a fort on its back; a circumstance that in no degree lessened their wonder. "Has my pale-face brother any more such beasts?" at last the senior of the Iroquois asked, in a sort of petitioning manner.
So at the expiration of two days I seized a tin plate and went to the chief's daughter and I said to her in a silvery voice in a kind of German-silvery voice I said "Sweet child of the forest, the pale-face wants his dog." There was nothing but his paws! I had paused too long! Which reminds me that time passes. A way which time has. I was told in my youth to seize opportunity.
Blossom has read to me out of the good book of your people, and I find it is so. I feel like a child, and could sit down, in my wigwam, and weep. "Bourdon, you are a pale-face, and I am an Injin. You are strong, and I am weak. This is because the Son of the Great Spirit has talked with your people, and has not talked with mine.
She had heard that the pale-face warriors sometimes neglected that duty, but could not well understand why, even when Ha-ha-pah-no explained to her that it was "bad medicine" for a white man to scalp anybody.

He has got a name for his deeds, and no longer dare go to the white men's forts. He does not look for Yankees, he looks for pale- faces. When he meets a pale-face on the prairies, or in the woods, he tries to get his scalp. This has he done for years, and many has he taken."

Despite the preparation their minds had received, and the fact that they were out in search of these very people, this sudden appearance of them filled most of the Eskimos with alarm some of them with absolute terror, insomuch that the term "pale-face" became most appropriate to themselves. "What shall we do?" exclaimed Akeetolik, one of the men.
"Well, then, great chief, will you let me examine the youth, I am a doctor, too, and perhaps I can do something to help your son."
