"That we encountered this disease then

most as common as sore throat
To what, doctor. do you attribute this
increase OF appendicitis"
To hasty eating and TO the use of foods
which have tendency 10 clog and fret

the surgeons knife Is TO shun unnatural

to be repeating Long Hairs Indian SEN
tence, "Wait here little while"
A few minutes later Long Hair re-
turned bearing two guns, Beverley's
and his own, the latter superb weap-
on given him by Hamilton. He after
ward explained that he had brought
these with their bullet pouches and
powder horns to place of conceal
ment near by before he awoke Beyer-
ley.
Delay could not be thought of. Long
Hair explained briefly that he thought
beverley must go to Kaskaskia. He
had come across the stream in the d.
rection OF Eincennes in order to set his
warriors at fault The stream must
be recrossed, he said, farther down,
and he would help Beverley a certain
distance on his way, then leave him to
| shift for himself. He had meager
amount of parched corn and buffalo
meat In his pouch which would stay
hunger until they could kill some game.
| Now they must go.
! They flung miles behind them before
| day dawn, Long Hair leading, Bever-
| ley pressing close at his heels. Most Of
the way led over fiat prairies covered
with water. and they therefore left no
track by which they could be followed.
Late in the forenoon Long Hair killed
a deer at the edge of wood. Here
they made a fire and cooked supply
which would last them for day or
two and tlien on they went again. But
we cannot follow them step by step.
When Long Hair at last took leave Of
Beverley the occasion had no ceremo-
ny. 1t was an abrupt, International
parting. The stalwart Indian simply
said in his own dialect, pointing west
ward:
Go that way two days. You Will finG
your friends"
Then without another look or word
he turned about and stalked eastward
at marvelously rapid gait. In his
mind he had good tale to tell his war
rior companions when he should find
them again-how Beverley escaped
that night and how he followed him
long. long chase only to lose him at
last under the very guns Of the fort at
Kaskaskia. But before he reached his
band an incident of some importance
changed bis story to considerable de-
gree. 1t CHANGED that he came upon
Lieutenant Barlow. who in pursuit OF
game had lost his bearings and, far
from his companions, was beating
around quite bewildered in q watery
solitude. Long Hair promptly MUIR
dered the poor fellow and scalped him
with as little compunction as he would
have skinned rabbit, for he had a
clever scheme in his head very auda-
cious and outrageous scheme, by which
he purposed to recoup to some extent
the damages sustained by letting Bev-
erley go.
Therefore when he rejoined his some
what disheartened and demoralized
band he showed them the scalp and
gave them an eloquent account Of how
he tore 1t from Beyerley's head aftey 4
long chase and bloody hand to hand
fight. They listened, believed and were
satisfied.
