The Ingins, poor critturs, kim a huntin over our track, albeit, there was no reglar town of theirn nearer nor twenty miles: but they never did us harm no, not a halt (little bit) and Nancy got so used to their red skins that she never minded them. There's bad Ingins that will steal and maybe massurkree: but most when they find a rale sinserity-hearted white, would a blame sight sooner scalp themselves than him. And I do believe me and Nancy was beliked by them : and many's the ven'sin and turke...y they fotch'd as a sort of pres- ent, and maybe a kind of pay for breadstuffs and salt Nancy used to give them. Sartin, indeed, a white would now and then be killed: but when all the circumstansis was illusterated, it was generally found the white was agressur, and was kotch'd doing something agin their laws and me and Nancy had a secret con- science that the white deserved his fate: and sometimes I felt like takin sides with the red skins myself, and shootm down the whiskey devils that made them drunk but I'll not enter on that now.
