The youth thought he detected a sparkle of the small black eyes, but I fear it was only fancy. "Why is he called Deerfoot?" "The palefaces gave him that name because no deer can run as fast as he." "My sons speak with a double tongue," said the chief, frowning. "They might in the presence of anyone but Taggarak, but to him they use only a single tongue.
You know I come of a superstitious race, and all my association with the Palefaces has never yet robbed me of my birthright to believe strange traditions." "You always understand," he said after a pause. "It's my heart that understands," I remarked quietly. He glanced up quickly, and with one of his all too few radiant smiles, he laughed. "Yes, skookum tum-tum."
He remembered the dead hero Pontiac, and wished that the red men had such a chieftain to unite them and rouse their manhood. He determined henceforth to take Pontiac for his model and to do what he could to unite his people and prepare them to resist the next attempt of the palefaces to take the land of the redskins.
They had their mishaps, and, of course, in their endless sports and adventures they had to take their share of knocks, but under them all they were so good-natured and resourceful, as well as resolute and fearless, that the old Indian talked much about them among his own people, and said: "It was no wonder that the palefaces succeeded, if all their boys were like these three."
"Yes, but let us risk his fire without stirring; lie all of us as if we were dead. Then he will go and tell his companions that he has counted the corpses of the palefaces." In spite of the danger incurred by this stratagem, the proposition of Bois-Rose was accepted, and each remained motionless, watching, not without anxiety, the manoeuvres of the Indian.
The Senecas were won by the words of the wily Delaware. They indulged in the fiction of saying that they had no thought of how matters stood between him and these palefaces, and their hearts were glad to hear the words fall from his lips. They would not harm his friends, and hoped they would reach in safety the settlement for which they were looking.
We were somewhat surprised at this; but Carlos said he suspected that those who had inhabited that part of the country had moved northward, or had retreated to the Everglades in the south, where the Palefaces could not follow them.
That was something that they had never heard of before. But they drew rude pictures at the end of the writing and called these pictures their names. Philip never tired listening to the stories about the palefaces. He was still too young to be taken to their settlement, but he longed for a chance to see them.
Do you two Palefaces promise to rustle around as soon as I go?" "We do," we both answered as he went out of the gate. Then we sat still, paralyzed, instead of the promised rustling. Only I was the most upset. Roxanne always brings out the rainbow and shakes it when the clouds get down very low. "What are you going to do about the pies?"
"It is now a matter for our consideration, my friends and warriors," said Bearpaw, in opening the palaver, "whether the palefaces are to spend the winter here and hunt with us, or to return to the Crooked Lake to stay with our kinsman, the white hunter, and his wife, the sweet singer.
