Tliev had with them a considerable

Aluong the ravage tribes roaming
thisland was one whose chief was call
ed Gray Wolf. He was the most cruel
and"treacherous chief ever known in
tlie west.
He one day discovered this little
train and with a few warrioYs rode tip
under tlie guise of friendship to find
out their strength. Among the people
in the traiu was a young lady said by
tlie Indians to have been beautiful be
yond description. • Noticing the eager
eyes of the chief fixed on a large black
stallion tied to one of the wagons she
stepped out to the horse and laying her
hand gently on his neck said, “Prince,”
and he that had been before all life,
motion, and restlessness, became quiet
and gentle as a dog. Then facing the
interpreter standing by the chief, ; both
of whom were awed by iter manner,

Gray Wolf and his braves left the*
camp promising eternal friendship,
only to return In the early morning
to massacre and plunder every person,
the young lady with the rest being
killed, and all their stock captured ex
cept the stallion.•
