Numbers of canoes are seen rapidly passing over the waters, and the angry savages that spring from them as hastily ascending the hill.

From the gates of the fort, hundreds of Indians are seen collecting from every direction, and all approaching the house of the interpreter.

We will follow them.
Few have witnessed so wild a scene.

The house of the interpreter employed by government is near the fort, and all around it were assembled the excited Indians.

In front of the house is a piazza, and on it lay the body of a young Dahcotah; his black hair plaited, and falling over his swarthy face.
