'
Tis
the
blood
of
Le
Subtil
!
he
is
hurt
,
and
may
yet
fall
!
"
"
No
,
no
,
"
returned
the
scout
,
in
decided
disapprobation
of
this
opinion
,
"
I
rubbed
the
bark
off
a
limb
,
perhaps
,
but
the
creature
leaped
the
longer
for
it
.
A
rifle-bullet
acts
on
a
running
animal
,
when
it
barks
him
,
much
the
same
as
one
of
your
spurs
on
a
horse
;
that
is
,
it
quickens
motion
,
and
puts
life
into
the
flesh
,
instead
of
taking
it
away
.
But
when
it
cuts
the
ragged
hole
,
after
a
bound
or
two
,
there
is
,
commonly
,
a
stagnation
of
further
leaping
,
be
it
Indian
or
be
it
deer
!
"
"
We
are
four
able
bodies
,
to
one
wounded
man
!
"
"
Is
life
grievous
to
you
?
"
interrupted
the
scout
.
"
Yonder
red
devils
would
draw
you
within
swing
of
the
tomahawks
of
his
comrades
,
before
you
were
heated
in
the
chase
.
It
was
an
unthoughtful
act
in
a
man
who
has
so
often
slept
with
the
war-whoop
ringing
in
the
air
,
to
let
off
his
piece
within
sound
of
an
ambushment
!
But
then
it
was
a
natural
temptation
!
'
twas
very
natural
!
Come
,
friends
,
let
us
move
our
station
,
and
in
such
a
fashion
,
too
,
as
will
throw
the
cunning
of
a
Mingo
on
a
wrong
scent
,
or
our
scalps
will
be
drying
in
the
wind
in
front
of
Montcalm
's
marquee
,
ag
'
in
this
hour
to-morrow
.
"
This
appalling
declaration
,
which
the
scout
uttered
with
the
cool
assurance
of
a
man
who
fully
comprehended
,
while
he
did
not
fear
to
face
the
danger
,
served
to
remind
Heyward
of
the
importance
of
the
charge
with
which
he
himself
had
been
intrusted
.
Glancing
his
eyes
around
,
with
a
vain
effort
to
pierce
the
gloom
that
was
thickening
beneath
the
leafy
arches
of
the
forest
,
he
felt
as
if
,
cut
off
from
human
aid
,
his
unresisting
companions
would
soon
lie
at
the
entire
mercy
of
those
barbarous
enemies
,
who
,
like
beasts
of
prey
,
only
waited
till
the
gathering
darkness
might
render
their
blows
more
fatally
certain
.
His
awakened
imagination
,
deluded
by
the
deceptive
light
,
converted
each
waving
bush
,
or
the
fragment
of
some
fallen
tree
,
into
human
forms
,
and
twenty
times
he
fancied
he
could
distinguish
the
horrid
visages
of
his
lurking
foes
,
peering
from
their
hiding-places
,
in
never-ceasing
watchfulness
of
the
movements
of
his
party
.
Looking
upward
,
he
found
that
the
thin
fleecy
clouds
,
which
evening
had
painted
on
the
blue
sky
,
were
already
losing
their
faintest
tints
of
rose-color
,
while
the
imbedded
stream
,
which
glided
past
the
spot
where
he
stood
,
was
to
be
traced
only
by
the
dark
boundary
of
its
wooded
banks
.
"
What
is
to
be
done
?
"
he
said
,
feeling
the
utter
helplessness
of
doubt
in
such
a
pressing
strait
;
"
desert
me
not
,
for
God
's
sake
!
remain
to
defend
those
I
escort
,
and
freely
name
your
own
reward
!
"
His
companions
,
who
conversed
apart
in
the
language
of
their
tribe
,
heeded
not
this
sudden
and
earnest
appeal
.
Though
their
dialogue
was
maintained
in
low
and
cautious
sounds
,
but
little
above
a
whisper
,
Heyward
,
who
now
approached
,
could
easily
distinguish
the
earnest
tones
of
the
younger
warrior
from
the
more
deliberate
speeches
of
his
seniors
.
It
was
evident
that
they
debated
on
the
propriety
of
some
measure
that
nearly
concerned
the
welfare
of
the
travellers
.
Yielding
to
his
powerful
interest
in
the
subject
,
and
impatient
of
a
delay
that
seemed
fraught
with
so
much
additional
danger
,
Heyward
drew
still
nigher
to
the
dusky
group
,
with
an
intention
of
making
his
offers
of
compensation
more
definite
,
when
the
white
man
,
motioning
,
with
his
hand
,
as
if
he
conceded
the
disputed
point
,
turned
away
,
saying
in
a
sort
of
soliloquy
,
and
in
the
English
tongue
