that the Indians regarded an insane person;

So Mickyfee with his carroty hair taken INTO

spoils of the RAID, and their custom after
successful one, the Indians drew lots upon their
return to the village Superstition Mountain.
Nickyee became the spoilS of WaSsaJaS father, who
in turn made him over to his son, then child
of only four years. This transfer made them play

He abhorred the slack ways proverbal among the

longing grew INTO something akin to homeSckness.
