Athenan. that certain captured citizens were
rescued from death by their quoting from the
works OF Euripides the tragedian and poet
also. n ship from Cannus was pursued by pi-
rates. which sought shelter in a Sicilian port.
The inhabitants at first refused to admit the
ship. unless the crew could rccite verses from
Eurpides which they did. and were thus saved
from the pirates. In similar manner am saved
from the Putes and the vengeance Of Winne-
mucca; for, in addition TO the copy OF THE Sun
found in tho valise OF tho white soldier. was
also discovered copy Of my Isro-Indan trag-
cdy ~ " Tecumsch and the Prophet OF the
West" which appears TO have done ma as ood
service among the Piutes Us EurlpNles amid
the Scians.
