384 The Life and Times of 1821. The woman fled the territory and crossed into Canada, but was followed thither by the sachems and others, arrested, and tried by a council, in due form, according to the imme- morial usages of her people in such cases made and pro- vided. She was proved guilty, and sentenced to death. But the Indians were too well informed, and too wary, to carry the execution into efl:ect beyond the confines of their own territory, either in Canada or the United States. The poor... culprit was therefore artfully inveigled back to the American side of the Magara, and thence within the bounds of their own jurisdiction, where it was determined she should meet her doom. Still the Indian who had been designated as the executioner faltered in his duty. Either his heart or his hand failed, or his conscience smote him, and he declined the fulfillment of his bloody commission. In this emergency, a chief named So-on-on-gise, but who was usually called Tommy Jemmy, seized a knife, and despatched the sorceress by cutting her throat.
