from this fact, it so happened that the Indians
surprised him and took him prisoner. To have

on the west bank of the Heaver river, about a

exultations and rejoicings at the capture of a

let, a fire was prepared, near which Emily was
placed ntter being stripped naked, and with Win

'Swear not at all, Hezekiah, but even lend

to the long eared animal. I'mt if thee is satis

me thine hand, I'll do as much as in me lieth to
