Elmsley, who are these Indians, and how came they in?" "They are a part of the encampment without, sir. There was no order given against their admission this morning, besides it is Winnebeg, and you have said that the gates of the Fort was to be open to him at all hours." "Ah! Winnebeg, my friend, how do you do. I did not know it was you or your people. You know you are always welcome."
"Good," was the answer, "Winnebeg always ready to do him order no angry more, gubbernor, with young chief," pointing to the ensign, as he moved off with his small guard. "Dam good soger you see dis?" and he touched his scalping-knife with his left hand, and looked very significantly. "No, Winnebeg, not angry any more," was the reply; "but how do you know him to be good soger?
I immediately went to the wigwam of Winnebeg, whom I found seated, with his toes almost in the embers of an expiring fire, and smoking his last pipe previous to wrapping himself up for the night in his blanket.
"Perceiving that Winnebeg was, like his young men, ready to do any thing for me. I explained to him my desire to convey the body of Mr. Heywood across the river, and bury him secretly in his own grounds, but that it was necessary, in order to do this effectually, that he and his son should go with me, and by some circuitous route.
Winnebeg, with his son, bore the body within the skirt of the wood, until we reached a bend of the river hidden from observation, where a canoe with paddles was drawn up on the beach.
