Coming at length to an opening in the thicket, I was forced to crawl on hands and knees to gain another cover where I might proceed in a crouching pos ture. I was now within range of the fort, and, in spite of the uncertain light, thought it wise to exercise the greatest caution. I was congratulating myself on the progress I was making, when, on putting back a thick screen of swamp-laurel, I found my self face to face with an Indian who was squatting upon his haunches in a grassy plot perhaps t...welve feet in circumference where no shrubs were growing. He had evidently crept into his present place of concealment in the hope of getting a shot at one of the fort sentries. I recognized the savage the moment I THE SON OF A TORY 147 put my eyes on him. There was no mis taking that malicious mouth. It was the very Indian whom Van Eyck and I had left bound in the wilderness. It was not at all strange I had not encountered him before, as he was but one of the thousand who were with the army. It was most strange and most unfortunate, however, that I should encounter him now.
