La Sallelanded, and examined the spot, when an object met his eye which cheeredhim with a bright gleam of hope. It was but a piece of wood, but the woodhad been cut with a saw. Tonty and his party, then, had passed this way, escaping from the carnage behind them. Unhappily, they had left no tokenof their passage at the fork of the two streams; and thus La Salle, on hisvoyage downward, had believed t...hem to be still on the river below.

Snow fell in profusion, till the earth was deeply buried. So light and drywas it, that to walk on snow-shoes was impossible; and La Salle, after hiscustom, took the lead, to break the path and cheer on his followers. Despite his tall stature, he often waded through drifts to the waist, while the men toiled on behind; the snow, shaken from the burdened twigs, showering them as they passed.
