age. The boy had been converted to
Christianity by Milo A. sellon, a Metho.

lief that the boy, in league with the
evil one, through his knowledge of the
white mans religion, caused the deaths.
The disappearance Of the boy from
school aroused the suspicious Of Mr..
Sellon. and he started in search Of him.
At the outskirts Of the village he
found tracks leading to fresh grave.
Digging down. he found the boy, still
