The innocent man did not once suspect that his boys had anything to do with this peculiar growth of the grass, although, had he looked behind him, he would have seen their dirty, grinning faces as they rolled upon the grass in ecstasies at his perplexity. After several more tumbles, Hans Vanderbum reached his favorite log, and crawled out like a huge turtle to the further extremity.
Much obleege fur yer bein' so kind fur to stand under and breaks my fall." "And breaks mine own neck, too, eh?" "Who might be you wid your big bread-basket?" inquired Cato, still lying upon his back and kicking up his heels. "Me? I's Hans Vanderbum, dat pelongs to Keewaygooshturkumkankangewock." Cato grew sober in an instant.
Too well the sagacious Huron knew that the Shawnee was lying in wait for him. The canoe, which Oonomoo left behind him, during his interview with Hans Vanderbum, lay precisely as it was first deposited. Not a surrounding limb, shrub or leaf had, so far as he could see, been disturbed since he left the spot.
Nevertheless, Hans Vanderbum managed to convey enough to her to keep hope alive in her breast, and to convince her that it would not be long before some enterprise for her freedom would be attempted by her friends.
I lef 'em sleepin'; and come out for to see whedder dar war any Injines crawlin' round in de woods, and I didn't see none but you, and you ain't an Injine." The appointed hour for the meeting between Hans Vanderbum and Oonomoo having arrived, the Dutchman added: "He ish to meet me 'bout dis time or leetles sooner, and, so we both goes togedder mit each oder, so dat we won't bees alone."
Remembers dat I t'inks I feels better." Hans Vanderbum caught a glimpse of his amiable wife in the door of his lodge at this moment, which was the cause of the sudden change in his conversation. Suiting his action to his words, he arose and said: "I t'inks I feels better, Keewaygooshturkumkankangewock, and guesses I go fishing." "I guess you might as well."
Hans Vanderbum felt as if he were the greatest monster upon earth thus to deceive his trusting wife, and there was a perceptible tremor in his voice, as he replied: "I will tends to de fish." He saw that the gum had united thoroughly with the food, and then with a flushed face, he resigned his place to his wife.
"Well, den, gits ready for it. I would shust like to know if dere ishn't some feller dat is in love mit you, and you is in love mit, and dat both ish in love mit each oder, eh?" The crimson that suffused the cheeks and mounted to the very forehead of the captive, answered the question of Hans Vanderbum more plainly than words. Still, he insisted upon a verbal reply.
So saying, Hans Vanderbum strode away through the forest in the direction of the Shawnee village. "He joys to scour the prairies wide, Upon the bison's trail; To pierce his dark and shaggy hide With darts that never fail. "His is the lion's strength in war, In peace, the lion's rest; And the eagle hath not flown so far As his fame throughout the West."
Through forty foes his path he made, And safely reached the forest-glade. After parting from Hans Vanderbum, the Huron sped noiselessly through the woods, taking a direction that would lead him to a point on the river fully three hundred yards below where he had signaled the German.
