"The child has been well treated, or he would keep away from our dark-skinned friend there," observed Mr Maloney.
"The poor boy must have been struck down by a lion, and has been carried off into the thicket," exclaimed his father. "I am not so sure of that," answered Hendricks. "What is it, Unozingli?" "The white boy shot a pallah, which galloped off away out there, and he followed," answered the little fellow, pointing to the north. "We shall find him before long.

He was at once adopted into the tribe, and has lived with us ever since, learning our customs and language, and we gave him the name of Unozingli."
