Leemah, a beautiful Indian girl, met in the forest a youngwhite hunter. She loved, and was beloved in return. The roses of the fewsummers she had lived glowed warm upon her cheek, and truth flashed inthe guileless light of her deep dark eyes--but Leemah was already abride, betrothed in childhood to a chieftain of her tribe; he had nowsummoned her to his dwelling, and her business in the forest wascollecting materials for her bridal store of box and basket. Hersylph-like form of arrowy grace was... arrayed in his wedding gifts ofcostly furs, and glittering bright with bead and shell. But few were thestores that Leemah gathered for her Indian chief. The burning noon waspassed with her white love in the leafy shade--there she brought for himsummer berries, and gathered for him the water cup flower, with itscooling draught of fragrant dew. Her time of marriage came, and atmidnight it was to be celebrated with torch light and dance. The otherhunters knew the love of Silas for the gem of the wilderness, andreadily offered their assistance in his project of gaining her.
