His
reception
was
grave
,
silent
,
and
wary
.
The
warriors
in
front
stepped
aside
,
opening
the
way
to
their
most
approved
orator
by
the
action
;
one
who
spoke
all
those
languages
that
were
cultivated
among
the
northern
aborigines
.
"
The
wise
Huron
is
welcome
,
"
said
the
Delaware
,
in
the
language
of
the
Maquas
;
"
he
is
come
to
eat
his
'
succotash
,
'
with
his
brothers
of
the
lakes
.
"
"
He
is
come
,
"
repeated
Magua
,
bending
his
head
with
the
dignity
of
an
Eastern
prince
.
The
chief
extended
his
arm
,
and
taking
the
other
by
the
wrist
,
they
once
more
exchanged
friendly
salutations
.
Then
the
Delaware
invited
his
guest
to
enter
his
own
lodge
,
and
share
his
morning
meal
.
The
invitation
was
accepted
;
and
the
two
warriors
,
attended
by
three
or
four
of
the
old
men
,
walked
calmly
away
,
leaving
the
rest
of
the
tribe
devoured
by
a
desire
to
understand
the
reasons
of
so
unusual
a
visit
,
and
yet
not
betraying
the
least
impatience
by
sign
or
word
.
During
the
short
and
frugal
repast
that
followed
,
the
conversation
was
extremely
circumspect
,
and
related
entirely
to
the
events
of
the
hunt
in
which
Magua
had
so
lately
been
engaged
.
It
would
have
been
impossible
for
the
most
finished
breeding
to
wear
more
of
the
appearance
of
considering
the
visit
as
a
matter
of
course
,
than
did
his
hosts
,
notwithstanding
every
individual
present
was
perfectly
aware
that
it
must
be
connected
with
some
secret
object
,
and
that
probably
of
importance
to
themselves
.
When
the
appetites
of
the
whole
were
appeased
,
the
squaws
removed
the
trenchers
and
gourd
,
and
the
two
parties
began
to
prepare
themselves
for
a
subtle
trial
of
their
wits
.
"
Is
the
face
of
my
great
Canada
father
turned
again
towards
his
Huron
children
?
"
demanded
the
orator
of
the
Delawares
.
"
When
was
it
ever
otherwise
?
"
returned
Magua
.
"
He
calls
my
people
'
most
beloved
.
'
"
The
Delaware
gravely
bowed
his
acquiescence
to
what
he
knew
to
be
false
,
and
continued
--
"
The
tomahawks
of
your
young
men
have
been
very
red
.
"
"
It
is
so
;
but
they
are
now
bright
and
dull
;
for
the
Yengeese
are
dead
,
and
the
Delawares
are
our
neighbors
.
"
