Though
the
rock
,
the
trees
,
and
the
shrubs
,
were
cut
and
torn
in
a
hundred
places
around
the
besieged
,
their
cover
was
so
close
,
and
so
rigidly
maintained
,
that
,
as
yet
,
David
had
been
the
only
sufferer
in
their
little
band
.
"
Let
them
burn
their
powder
,
"
said
the
deliberate
scout
,
while
bullet
after
bullet
whizzed
by
the
place
where
he
securely
lay
;
"
there
will
be
a
fine
gathering
of
lead
when
it
is
over
,
and
I
fancy
the
imps
will
tire
of
the
sport
,
afore
these
old
stones
cry
out
for
mercy
!
Uncas
,
boy
,
you
waste
the
kernels
by
overcharging
:
and
a
kicking
rifle
never
carries
a
true
bullet
.
I
told
you
to
take
that
loping
miscreant
under
the
line
of
white
paint
;
now
,
if
your
bullet
went
a
hair
's
breadth
,
it
went
two
inches
above
it
.
The
life
lies
low
in
a
Mingo
,
and
humanity
teaches
us
to
make
a
quick
end
of
the
sarpents
.
"
A
quiet
smile
lighted
the
haughty
features
of
the
young
Mohican
,
betraying
his
knowledge
of
the
English
language
,
as
well
as
of
the
other
's
meaning
;
but
he
suffered
it
to
pass
away
without
vindication
or
reply
.
"
I
can
not
permit
you
to
accuse
Uncas
of
want
of
judgment
or
of
skill
,
"
said
Duncan
;
"
he
saved
my
life
in
the
coolest
and
readiest
manner
,
and
he
has
made
a
friend
who
never
will
require
to
be
reminded
of
the
debt
he
owes
.
"
Uncas
partly
raised
his
body
,
and
offered
his
hand
to
the
grasp
of
Heyward
.
During
this
act
of
friendship
,
the
two
young
men
exchanged
looks
of
intelligence
which
caused
Duncan
to
forget
the
character
and
condition
of
his
wild
associate
.
In
the
meanwhile
,
Hawkeye
,
who
looked
on
this
burst
of
youthful
feeling
with
a
cool
but
kind
regard
,
made
the
following
reply
:
--
"
Life
is
an
obligation
which
friends
often
owe
each
other
in
the
wilderness
.
I
dare
say
I
may
have
served
Uncas
some
such
turn
myself
before
now
;
and
I
very
well
remember
that
he
has
stood
between
me
and
death
five
different
times
:
three
times
from
the
Mingos
,
once
in
crossing
Horican
,
and
--
"
"
That
bullet
was
better
aimed
than
common
!
"
exclaimed
Duncan
,
involuntarily
shrinking
from
a
shot
which
struck
the
rock
at
his
side
with
a
smart
rebound
.
Hawkeye
laid
his
hand
on
the
shapeless
metal
,
and
shook
his
head
,
as
he
examined
it
,
saying
,
"
Falling
lead
is
never
flattened
!
had
it
come
from
the
clouds
this
might
have
happened
!
"
But
the
rifle
of
Uncas
was
deliberately
raised
towards
the
heavens
,
directing
his
companions
to
a
point
,
where
the
mystery
was
immediately
explained
.
A
ragged
oak
grew
on
the
right
bank
of
the
river
,
nearly
opposite
to
their
position
,
which
,
seeking
the
freedom
of
the
open
space
,
had
inclined
so
far
forward
,
that
its
upper
branches
overhung
that
arm
of
the
stream
which
flowed
nearest
to
its
own
shore
.
Among
the
topmost
leaves
,
which
scantily
concealed
the
gnarled
and
stunted
limbs
,
a
savage
was
nestled
,
partly
concealed
by
the
trunk
of
the
tree
,
and
partly
exposed
,
as
though
looking
down
upon
them
to
ascertain
the
effect
produced
by
his
treacherous
aim
.
