About this time a Shawanese Indian arrived at Up- [65] per Sandusky, and brought the heart-chilling intelligence, that my late fel- low-prisoner, William Flinn, had been burnt 104 JOHNSTON'S NARRATIVE at the stake, and devoured by the savages, at one of the Miami towtas. This monster de- clared, that he had been present when the miserable man was sacrificed; had partaken of the horrid banquet; and that his flesh was sweeter than any bear's meatl — a food of all others in highest repute w!ith th...e Indians.

She was no longer that cheerful, lively creature, such as When separated from us. Her spirits were sunk, her gayety had fled : and instead of that viva- city and sprightliness which formerly danced upon her countenace, she now wore the undis- sembled aspect of melancholy and Wretched- ness.
