Mrs. Franklin and the children observed them very busily engaged in con- versing together, and afterwards saw them put out their fires, and imagined they did it through fear of their enemies. Presently one of them who could talk English said, "rebels after us," and pointing to the top of the hill said, "Yankees up there." They packed up their matters and went a- long the side of the hill, and when they stopped for the night, did not encamp in a body, but lay scat- tered here and there, and abst...ained from shooting. They also went out of their direct route, for the purpose of evading pursuit. They came finally to the Wylusing creek, where they passed the night. Here their fish and squirrels were boiled in water. The Indians gave their prisoners the water in which the fish were boiled for drink, and a quarter of a squirrel each, to eat ; and it was, says Mrs. Stevens, the best victuals 1 ever tasted. The Indian who claimed Stephen wanted to have him sleep in the same blanket with him, but the b'oy resolutely re- fused, and could not be made to submit to his wish- es.
