Strana 251 - The white people had now found our country. Tidings were carried back and more came amongst us. Yet, we did not fear them. We took them to be friends. They called us brothers.

If he was disappointed on this side, he was as much pleased on the other, when he found the lion, which had seized on his left shoulder, had no power to hurt him, and was only the ghost of that ravenous creature which it appeared to be. He no sooner got rid of...

Strana 93 - With this apparatus several unsuccessful efforts were made to force her from the den. The hounds came back badly wounded, and refused to return.
