"Poor fellow, then, remain behind, and we will hunt for thee, who hast done so often for us." "Quah!" exclaimed the Indian, with a gesture of disdain, "It is nothing.
They then proceeded to the rock which had been their place of refuge when the herd of elephants had charged upon them; and as they stood under it, they were suddenly saluted with a loud noise over their heads, sounding like quah, quah! As soon as Begum heard it, she ran up to the Major with every sign of trepidation, holding fast to his skin trousers.
When a certain Famous Hunter, whose heart took pride in horns and heads and hides the trophies won by his unerring rifle in all four corners of earth found his way at last to the tumbled wilderness that lies about the headwaters of the Quah Davic, it was naturally one of the great New Brunswick moose that he was after.

"What does a child like Quadaquina, mean by wandering so far in the dark away from its mother?" demanded Ohquamehud. "Quadaquina is no longer a child," answered the boy, "to need his mother.
