"
Has
my
brother
driven
away
the
evil
spirit
?
"
demanded
the
former
.
"
What
has
he
in
his
arms
?
"
"
Thy
child
,
"
returned
Duncan
,
gravely
;
"
the
disease
has
gone
out
of
her
;
it
is
shut
up
in
the
rocks
.
I
take
the
woman
to
a
distance
,
where
I
will
strengthen
her
against
any
further
attacks
.
She
shall
be
in
the
wigwam
of
the
young
man
when
the
sun
comes
again
.
"
When
the
father
had
translated
the
meaning
of
the
stranger
's
words
into
the
Huron
language
,
a
suppressed
murmur
announced
the
satisfaction
with
which
the
intelligence
was
received
.
The
chief
himself
waved
his
hand
for
Duncan
to
proceed
,
saying
aloud
,
in
a
firm
voice
,
and
with
a
lofty
manner
--
"
Go
;
I
am
a
man
,
and
I
will
enter
the
rock
and
fight
the
wicked
one
.
"
Heyward
had
gladly
obeyed
,
and
was
already
past
the
little
group
,
when
these
startling
words
arrested
him
.
"
Is
my
brother
mad
?
"
he
exclaimed
;
"
is
he
cruel
!
He
will
meet
the
disease
,
and
it
will
enter
him
;
or
he
will
drive
out
the
disease
,
and
it
will
chase
his
daughter
into
the
woods
.
No
;
let
my
children
wait
without
,
and
if
the
spirit
appears
beat
him
down
with
clubs
.
He
is
cunning
,
and
will
bury
himself
in
the
mountain
,
when
he
sees
how
many
are
ready
to
fight
him
.
"
This
singular
warning
had
the
desired
effect
.
Instead
of
entering
the
cavern
,
the
father
and
husband
drew
their
tomahawks
,
and
posted
themselves
in
readiness
to
deal
their
vengeance
on
the
imaginary
tormentor
of
their
sick
relative
,
while
the
women
and
children
broke
branches
from
the
bushes
,
or
seized
fragments
of
the
rock
,
with
a
similar
intention
.
At
this
favorable
moment
the
counterfeit
conjurers
disappeared
.
Hawkeye
,
at
the
same
time
that
he
had
presumed
so
far
on
the
nature
of
the
Indian
superstitions
,
was
not
ignorant
that
they
were
rather
tolerated
than
relied
on
by
the
wisest
of
the
chiefs
.
He
well
knew
the
value
of
time
in
the
present
emergency
.
Whatever
might
be
the
extent
of
the
self-delusion
of
his
enemies
,
and
however
it
had
tended
to
assist
his
schemes
,
the
slightest
cause
of
suspicion
,
acting
on
the
subtle
nature
of
an
Indian
,
would
be
likely
to
prove
fatal
.
Taking
the
path
,
therefore
,
that
was
most
likely
to
avoid
observation
,
he
rather
skirted
than
entered
the
village
.
The
warriors
were
still
to
be
seen
in
the
distance
,
by
the
fading
light
of
the
fires
,
stalking
from
lodge
to
lodge
.
But
the
children
had
abandoned
their
sports
for
their
beds
of
skins
,
and
the
quiet
of
night
was
already
beginning
to
prevail
over
the
turbulence
and
excitement
of
so
busy
and
important
an
evening
.
Alice
revived
under
the
renovating
influence
of
the
open
air
,
and
as
her
physical
rather
than
her
mental
powers
had
been
the
subject
of
weakness
,
she
stood
in
no
need
of
any
explanation
of
that
which
had
occurred
.
