AN|ND|AN LEGEND
proper Gander.)

Long, long ago, in the northern
part of Georgia lived an Indian chief
who was very powerful. This Indian
was chief over large tribe. He had
a beautiful and kind daughter, whose
name was bright Star" She was
loved by all the people of her tribe.
Not far from where this tribe Of
Indians dwelt, there were also on
other tribe of Indians almost as large.
The chief of this tribe was tall, strong
and very handsome. THESE two great
chiefs were good friends and helped
each other fight his G 1smies.
Now, Swift Arrow, the young
chief, fell in love with Bright Star.
They loved each other very, very
rlucf and were going to be married
if Bright Stars father gave his con-
sent. This, her father would not do.
He said to the young chief, "we
have always been friends, bui now we
are enemies. If you. can conquer me
in battle, I will freely give you my
daughter"
every WE'LL" replied the oung chief
Not long after, the two great chiefs
fought a great battle. And after a
long struggle, the older chief won.
He captured the young chief, Swift
Arrow, and prepared to put him to
death. Poor little Bright Star asked
her father not to put to death her
lover. But her father refused her
request.
When the day came for the In
dams to put to death Swift Arrow,
Bright Star dressed in her finest robe.
She was standing by the block of
stone, on which they were to cut the
chiefs head off, when two Indians
brought Swift Arrow in. The old chief
commanded the Indians to lower the
axe gradually. When the axe was
about two feet above the young
chiefs head, Bright Star screamed
and fell on Swift Arrow. The axe fell
before the Indians could stop it, and
cut the heads off both Swift Arrow
and Bright Star. The chief grieved
bitterly for his daughter, for he
knew that he was the cause of her
death.
The Indians of her tribe said with
sorrow, "The Bright Star has fallen"

a theme brought forth amid much
