Will you not remain here with me for a few weeks, or, at least, until my scouts report ?" "I thank you; but go I will." "Then let me entreat you to remain here a few days, so that I may send my brother Jonathan and Wetzel with you.

If any can guide you safely to the Village of Peace it will be they." At this moment Joe saw two men approaching from the fort, and recognized one of them as Wetzel.

He doubted not that the other was Lord Dunmore's famous guide and hunter, Jonathan Zane.

In features he resembled the colonel, and was as tall as Wetzel, although not so muscular or wide of chest.
Joe felt the same thrill he had experienced while watching the frontiersmen at Fort Pitt.

Wetzel and Jonathan spoke a word to Colonel Zane and then stepped aside.
