glory OF tho King. Lieutenant"
The General was still examining the
ridges through his military glasses
when canoe containing a single oc-
cupant came from behind screen Of
woods ahead of us.
"a Huronl" I exclaimed.
"One OF our savage enemies" said
the Major.
The indian padded his canoe
farther out into the lake, but kept
directly in front OF US. Then no
turned and looked back at the army.
"Some wandering fisherman or
hunter" said tho major.
"No," l replied, " a warrior"
The sun fell full upon the warrior,
and revealed every feature OF his
face and all the outlines of his shin
ing and almost naked body. He was
scarcely beyond rifle shot, but he
regarded US with as much calm and
unconcern as II we we're a flock Of
water fowl. His hair was gathered
in the scalp lock, and his face and
body gllstened with the war paint. He
was young and OF imposing figure.
"A fierce looking creature" said the
Major. His gaze makes mo think OF
some OF our own wild Highlanders. :"
With easy and scarce perceptible
stroke the savage propelled his canoe,
the distance between him and the
army neither widening nor narrowing
Nor did he once remove his gaze
from US. II was an odd sight. As
we moved down the lake II looked az
II all that army was pursuing a lone
Indian.
"By my faith. the savage seems 20
defy all tho power Of Great Brttain!'
said the major,
Thus we advanced some distance,
and the heavy murmur that rose up
from tho army told that the warrior
had aroused the curiosity OF all the
soldiers. Presently he gave several
prolonged and vigorous sweeps With
his paddle. The boat curved about
and shot toward a little cove.
HE Is going 10 leave u.s." said the
major. This army was a rare sight
for him. dare say he will never
again look upon such a martial spec
tacle."
The canoe struck lightly against tho
bank. and the Indian stepped out. lie
faced us. rifle In hand, as erect and
strong as "A young oak. For moment
no regarded us seemingly with more
intensity than ever. Then nc raised
his rifle, discharged II into tho aAr,

tho men TO scatter about In the un-
