signifed that blood had boon shed which was not
yet washed away, the crimson stain remaining.
Next a blanket all of blue was spread over the red
one. 1t expressed the hope that the blood might
be washed out in heaven and remembered no more,
and last, n blanket purely white was spread over
all, significant of a desire that nowhere on earth
or in heaven a stain of blood should remain, and
that everywhere, and 10y all, it should be forgiven
and forgotten.
These blankets, thus spread out, were to receive
the ransom. The friends ofthe Eagle brought goods
goods Of various kind and piled them high before the
father of the slain. lie considered them a moment
in silence and turned his eye to the fatal knife.
The wife Of the Eagle threw her arms around her
husbands neck, and turned her eyes imploringly
full on the old mans face, without n word. lie
had stretched his hand toward the knife when he
met that look. lie paused his fingers moved con-
vulsively, but they did not grasp the handle. His
lips quivered, and then a tear was in his eye.

the ransom itself was presented to his wife as a
gift, and he and the "avenger CT blood lived after.
