But
,
in
addition
to
the
never-ceasing
anxiety
on
account
of
Alice
,
a
fresher
,
though
feebler
interest
in
the
fate
of
Uncas
assisted
to
chain
him
to
the
spot
.
He
continued
,
therefore
,
to
stray
from
hut
to
hut
,
looking
into
each
only
to
encounter
additional
disappointment
,
until
he
had
made
the
entire
circuit
of
the
village
.
Abandoning
a
species
of
inquiry
that
proved
so
fruitless
,
he
retraced
his
steps
to
the
council
lodge
,
resolved
to
seek
and
question
David
,
in
order
to
put
an
end
to
his
doubts
.
On
reaching
the
building
which
had
proved
alike
the
seat
of
judgment
and
the
place
of
execution
,
the
young
man
found
that
the
excitement
had
already
subsided
.
The
warriors
had
reassembled
,
and
were
now
calmly
smoking
,
while
they
conversed
gravely
on
the
chief
incidents
of
their
recent
expedition
to
the
head
of
the
Horican
.
Though
the
return
of
Duncan
was
likely
to
remind
them
of
his
character
,
and
the
suspicious
circumstances
of
his
visit
,
it
produced
no
visible
sensation
.
So
far
,
the
terrible
scene
that
had
just
occurred
proved
favorable
to
his
views
,
and
he
required
no
other
prompter
than
his
own
feelings
to
convince
him
of
the
expediency
of
profiting
by
so
unexpected
an
advantage
.
Without
seeming
to
hesitate
,
he
walked
into
the
lodge
,
and
took
his
seat
with
a
gravity
that
accorded
admirably
with
the
deportment
of
his
hosts
.
A
hasty
but
searching
glance
sufficed
to
tell
him
that
,
though
Uncas
still
remained
where
he
had
left
him
,
David
had
not
reappeared
.

No
other
restraint
was
imposed
on
the
former
than
the
watchful
looks
of
a
young
Huron
,
who
had
placed
himself
at
hand
;
though
an
armed
warrior
leaned
against
the
post
that
formed
one
side
of
the
narrow
door-way
.
In
every
other
respect
,
the
captive
seemed
at
liberty
;
still
he
was
excluded
from
all
participation
in
the
discourse
,
and
possessed
much
more
of
the
air
of
some
finely
moulded
statue
than
a
man
having
life
and
volition
.
Heyward
had
too
recently
witnessed
a
frightful
instance
of
the
prompt
punishments
of
the
people
into
whose
hands
he
had
fallen
,
to
hazard
an
exposure
by
any
officious
boldness
.
He
would
greatly
have
preferred
silence
and
meditation
to
speech
,
when
a
discovery
of
his
real
condition
might
prove
so
instantly
fatal
.
Unfortunately
for
this
prudent
resolution
,
his
entertainers
appeared
otherwise
disposed
.
He
had
not
long
occupied
the
seat
wisely
taken
a
little
in
the
shade
,
when
another
of
the
elder
warriors
,
who
spoke
the
French
language
,
addressed
him
:
--
"
My
Canada
father
does
not
forget
his
children
,
"
said
the
chief
;
"
I
thank
him
.
An
evil
spirit
lives
in
the
wife
of
one
of
my
young
men
.
Can
the
cunning
stranger
frighten
him
away
?
"
Heyward
possessed
some
knowledge
of
the
mummery
practised
among
the
Indians
,
in
the
cases
of
such
supposed
visitations
.
He
saw
,
at
a
glance
,
that
the
circumstance
might
possibly
be
improved
to
further
his
own
end
.
It
would
,
therefore
,
have
been
difficult
,
just
then
,
to
have
uttered
a
proposal
that
would
have
given
him
more
satisfaction
.

Aware
of
the
necessity
of
preserving
the
dignity
of
his
imaginary
character
,
however
,
he
repressed
his
feelings
,
and
answered
with
suitable
mystery
--
"
Spirits
differ
;
some
yield
to
the
power
of
wisdom
,
while
others
are
too
strong
.
"
"
My
brother
is
a
great
medicine
,
"
said
the
cunning
savage
;
"
he
will
try
?
