During several days there was profound grief in the Indian village, for Rising Sun had been a favourite with every one. About this time one or two scattered bands of the party, which had gone to attack the paleface settlement, returned to the village, and when they found what had occurred in their absence, their enmity was turned into friendship, and general goodwill prevailed among all.
A white man, like yourselves; one who has been long with our tribe a captive taken many years ago from some of the countries south. He is Shebotha's own slave, and watches over the paleface when she is out of the toldo."
Screened by the trees, they see the Indians, themselves unobserved, while they can distinctly hear every word said. Only two of the party speak aloud, the young cacique and his paleface companion; their speech, of course, relating to the newly-discovered "sign."
There were too many drowsy children and too numerous orders for the day to waste a moment in any apology to nature for giving her children such a shock in the early morning. We rushed downstairs, bounding over two high steps at a time, to land in the assembly room. A paleface woman, with a yellow-covered roll book open on her arm and a gnawed pencil in her hand, appeared at the door.
For although hindered from hearing their conversation with Nacena, and so becoming acquainted with their plans, if not fully comprehending, she at least surmises them. For, having recognised the gaucho and his companions all three of them what purpose could they have there other than to release the paleface girl she has in her charge?
He then replied that he would, if it were the wish of his Paleface brother, endeavour to gain tidings of the girl, although, as there were many of his people who looked upon him as an enemy, he might have great difficulty in accomplishing his object. "Spotted Wolf will do his best, and look for his reward," answered Captain Norton; "we can expect no more."
I'll send you another, a big, big ring when I get home, if you will help me to get away from here." Jinny eyed him steadily for a few seconds, then shook her head. "I'll send you beads, too, Jinny beads like the paleface ladies wear." "You send Jinny white woman beads!" "I promise you." "Me help um little paleface buck. Me help um two," she added, holding up two fingers.
The braves quieted down after that, and soon lapsed into slumber, leaving the big fellow, to whom the chief had addressed his brief command, acting, as guard. Observing Joe watching him as he puffed on his new pipe, he grinned, and spoke in broken English that was intelligible, and much of a surprise to the young man. "Paleface tobac' heap good."
But the paleface law-man say to me that that talking paper good only In that county. You see? I not in that county now." "Oh, Jerry!" gasped Jennie Stone. "Isn't that cute? She is outside the jurisdiction of the court." "Sho!" exclaimed Jabez Potter, much amused by this outcome of the matter. "It is a fact. Go on back to your show, mister.
"Hello, Noddlecoddy," greeted Jim Emmett, the Mormon guide. "Ugh!" answered the Indian. "Big paleface Buffalo Jones -big chief buffalo man," introduced Emmett, indicating Jones. "How." The Navajo spoke with dignity, and extended a friendly hand. "Jones big white chief rope buffalo tie up tight," continued Emmett, making motions with his arm, as if he were whirling a lasso.
