[Suppressed cries'] Howard Tell me — which way! which way! Eagle-Talon [on one knee^ gasping, pointing] They come Out of the blue hills on their flying horses, Quick as the north wind — ^and their tomahawks flash, Their rifles glisten. [Rises y speaks in guttural voice , gestures dramatically] Last night in the sand They crouched around the circl...e of the war- dance. Chopping the earth and chanting the death- chant. Under the waning moon I saw the warriors, Naked, all daubed with paint — and Eagle- Talon 40 THE PIONEERS He, white-man^s friend, he knew. [ Taps his chest] As comes the dawn. He came: he say, put bullets in your rifles. He say, make fight. Plenty of Indian comes. Howard How near, how near?
