Excerpt from The Ojibway: A Novel of Indian Life, of the Period of the Early Advance of Civilization in the Great Northwest When the shades of evening were beginning to close in on a May day about the middle of the century just ended, an Indian hunter on the lonely shores of Gull Lake, in what is now the State of Minnesota, was warned by the increasing gloom that it was time for him to turn his steps homeward. He had been all day hunting ducks to provide food for the loved ones, and a well-filled bag which hung from his back suspended by a deer hide strap showed that his efforts had not been in vain. His gun was on his shoulder, and at his feet was his faithful dog, who had so many times that day dashed into the water and brought to land the mallards which the sure aim of his master's gun had deprived of life. He seemed to share his master's opinion that it was about time to think of supper and a place to sleep, for when the master ceased scanning the lake for ducks and took a long look toward the place where his wigwam should be, turning his steps toward it, the dog gave a joyous bark and scampered ahead in that direction. As he ran on he ever and anon looked round with joyous face to his master, his meaning being as plain as if he had spoken it: "That's right, master; it is time to go to home and supper."

Excerpt from Girty, the White Indian Unheard of for years, the other captive brothers roamed, with their adopted tribes, the great North-western wilderness, and day by day their savage guardians sought to destroy within them every feeling and instinct of race and civilization. The Girty blood was naturally wild and lawless, and they succeeded only too well. In 1764, at the close of Pontiac's war, the able and gallant Bouquet of the British army accomplished that wholesale rescue of prisoners from the Indians so eloquently portrayed in the noted painting of Benjamin West, and the three Girty brothers were among the number. But they had now become indifferent to deliverance. They returned with Bouquet to Fort Pitt, but they returned with souls imbued with savage feelings and with natures perverted by savage educa tion. They had been taught to love the destroyers of their parents, and charmed with the wild, free life of the forest and the prairie, they hated to their dying day the restraints and artificial habits of white society. It is even said that they returned to their tribes, but that the Indians were again compelled to give them up. They were for a time apparently weaned away from their adopted brethren, but they never even then fought against them, were always at ease in their company, and, as will be seen later on, ultimately took up the savage life again. Much of their time after their rescue was spent about Fort Pitt, and the then wild and wooded locality in that vicinity, which later received the name of Squirrel Hill, seems to have been one of their favorite haunts. It was there that their more fortunate brother Thomas and their long absent half-brother John Turner settled, and the early history of the hill teems with highly entertaining but confused and unreliable legends of the family.

Excerpt from Indian Why Stories: Sparks From War Eagle's Lodge-Fire The great Northwest - that wonderful frontier that called to itself a world's hardiest spirits - is rapidly becoming a settled country; and before the light of civilizing influences, the blanket-Indian has trailed the buffalo over the divide that time has set between the pioneer and the crowd. With his passing we have lost much of the aboriginal folk-lore, rich in its fairy-like characters, and its relation to the lives of a most warlike people. There is a wide difference between folk-lore of the so-called Old World and that of America. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
