He was a great coward, and acknowledged to her husband that he had taken the ring off pale face woman's finger.

Her husband told her to keep the ring till pale face woman saw it.

That pale face woman has arrow mark on right arm above joint.

Here Margaret Godfrey pulled up her sleeve and showed the little squaw the arrow mark received by her at Fort Frederick, in 1770.
"Little Mag's" full brown-face lit up with an innocent smile as she pulled the precious gem off her own finger and placed it in the hand of Mrs.Godfrey, at the same time saying, "I know you the pale face who lost ring." Margaret took the ring put it on her own finger and thanked "Little Mag" for it.
