The boy then left me at the next post, and I got into the carriage— the day getting hot, and the stage twenty-four miles. After galloping about an hour, I saw a large cloud of smoke on the horizon before me ; and as the Indians often burn the grass when they enter the country, I asked Pizarro what it was ? He replied, '^ Quien sabe,— ^Sefior, what it may be;'' however, on we galloped.
I took little notice of it, and began to think of the dreadful story the boy had told me, and of many similar o...nes which I had heard; for I had Digitized by Google THE PAMPAf, W •Iways endeavoured to get at the history of the huts which were burnt, although I always found that the Gauehos thought very little about it ; and that the story was sometimes altogether in oblivion, before time had crumbled into dust the tottering mud wallfif which were the monuments of such dreadful cruelties.
It appears that the Pampas Indians, who, in Spite of their ferocity, are a very brave and hand- some race of men, occasionally invade ** los Cris- lianos,^ as the Gauehos always term themselves, for two objects — to steal cattle> and for the plea^ sure of murdering the people ; and that they will even leave the cattle to massacre their enemies.
