But
they
may
discover
him
,
and
it
will
prove
his
death
.
His
person
can
be
too
plainly
seen
by
the
light
of
that
fire
,
and
he
will
become
the
first
and
most
certain
victim
.
"
"
It
is
undeniable
that
now
you
speak
the
truth
,
"
returned
the
scout
,
betraying
more
anxiety
than
was
usual
;
"
yet
what
can
be
done
?
A
single
suspicious
look
might
bring
on
an
attack
before
we
are
ready
to
receive
it
.
He
knows
,
by
the
call
I
gave
to
Uncas
,
that
we
have
struck
a
scent
:
I
will
tell
him
that
we
are
on
the
trail
of
the
Mingos
;
his
Indian
nature
will
teach
him
how
to
act
.
"
The
scout
applied
his
fingers
to
his
mouth
,
and
raised
a
low
hissing
sound
,
that
caused
Duncan
,
at
first
,
to
start
aside
,
believing
that
he
heard
a
serpent
.
The
head
of
Chingachgook
was
resting
on
a
hand
,
as
he
sat
musing
by
himself
;
but
the
moment
he
heard
the
warning
of
the
animal
whose
name
he
bore
,
it
arose
to
an
upright
position
and
his
dark
eyes
glanced
swiftly
and
keenly
on
every
side
of
him
.
With
this
sudden
and
perhaps
involuntary
movement
,
every
appearance
of
surprise
or
alarm
ended
.
His
rifle
lay
untouched
,
and
apparently
unnoticed
,
within
reach
of
his
hand
.
The
tomahawk
that
he
had
loosened
in
his
belt
for
the
sake
of
ease
,
was
even
suffered
to
fall
from
its
usual
situation
to
the
ground
,
and
his
form
seemed
to
sink
,
like
that
of
a
man
whose
nerves
and
sinews
were
suffered
to
relax
for
the
purpose
of
rest
.
Cunningly
resuming
his
former
position
,
though
with
a
change
of
hands
,
as
if
the
movement
had
been
made
merely
to
relieve
the
limb
,
the
native
awaited
the
result
with
a
calmness
and
fortitude
that
none
but
an
Indian
warrior
would
have
known
how
to
exercise
.
But
Heyward
saw
that
while
to
a
less
instructed
eye
the
Mohican
chief
appeared
to
slumber
,
his
nostrils
were
expanded
,
his
head
was
turned
a
little
to
one
side
,
as
if
to
assist
the
organs
of
hearing
,
and
that
his
quick
and
rapid
glances
ran
incessantly
over
every
object
,
within
the
power
of
his
vision
.
"
See
the
noble
fellow
!
"
whispered
Hawkeye
,
pressing
the
arm
of
Heyward
;
"
he
knows
that
a
look
or
a
motion
might
discansart
our
schemes
,
and
put
us
at
the
mercy
of
them
imps
--
"
He
was
interrupted
by
the
flash
and
report
of
a
rifle
.
The
air
was
filled
with
sparks
of
fire
around
that
spot
where
the
eyes
of
Heyward
were
still
fastened
with
admiration
and
wonder
.
A
second
look
told
him
that
Chingachgook
had
disappeared
in
the
confusion
.
In
the
meantime
the
scout
had
thrown
forward
his
rifle
,
like
one
prepared
for
service
,
and
awaited
impatiently
the
moment
when
an
enemy
might
rise
to
view
.
But
with
the
solitary
and
fruitless
attempt
made
on
the
life
of
Chingachgook
,
the
attack
appeared
to
have
terminated
.
Once
or
twice
the
listeners
thought
they
could
distinguish
the
distant
rustling
of
bushes
,
as
bodies
of
some
unknown
description
rushed
through
them
;
nor
was
it
long
before
Hawkeye
pointed
out
the
"
scampering
of
the
wolves
,
"
as
they
fled
precipitately
before
the
passage
of
some
intruder
on
their
proper
domains
.
After
an
impatient
and
breathless
pause
,
a
plunge
was
heard
in
the
water
,
and
it
was
immediately
followed
by
the
report
of
another
rifle
.
"
There
goes
Uncas
!
"
said
the
scout
;
"
the
boy
bears
a
smart
piece
!
I
know
its
crack
,
as
well
as
a
father
knows
the
language
of
his
child
,
for
I
carried
the
gun
myself
until
a
better
offered
.
"
"
What
can
this
mean
?
"
demanded
Duncan
;
"
we
are
watched
,
and
,
as
it
would
seem
,
marked
for
destruction
.
"
"
Yonder
scattered
brand
can
witness
that
no
good
was
intended
,
and
this
Indian
will
testify
that
no
harm
has
been
done
,
"
returned
the
scout
,
dropping
his
rifle
across
his
arm
again
,
and
following
Chingachgook
,
who
just
then
reappeared
within
the
circle
of
light
,
into
the
bosom
of
the
works
.
"
How
is
it
,
Sagamore
?
Are
the
Mingos
upon
us
in
earnest
,
or
is
it
only
one
of
those
reptyles
who
hang
upon
the
skirts
of
a
war
party
,
to
scalp
the
dead
,
go
in
,
and
make
their
boast
among
the
squaws
of
the
valiant
deeds
done
on
the
pale-faces
?
"
Chingachgook
very
quietly
resumed
his
seat
;
nor
did
he
make
any
reply
,
until
after
he
had
examined
the
firebrand
which
had
been
struck
by
the
bullet
that
had
nearly
proved
fatal
to
himself
.
After
which
,
he
was
content
to
reply
,
holding
a
single
finger
up
to
view
,
with
the
English
monosyllable
