SYNOPSIS
In the spring of 1829, Kit Carson,
then .19, first rode with a party of
trappers from Taos, Now Mexico,
across the desert and into Califor
nia. The men sought beaver fur
which was then to commerce
what gold was later to become.
Fighting the Apache, harried by
Mexican authorities, ambushed by
the Mojave redskins, adding always
to their store of thick pelts the
i party reached Los Angeles before
they returned to Taos. For one
V? brief week Kit knew riches and
revelry. At length, "111 never be
. such a tarnation fool again," vowed
; ; Kit, nor was he, In the fall of 1830
' . Kit rode again with a band of trap-'-pers
who followed what would
"later be the Oregon traiL Snow
and Blackfeet Indians-halted them
in the region which was later to
become part of Wyoming. It was
during a brush with the Indians
v that Kit first caught sight of the
- beautiful maid. Pine Needle, whose
. father, the mighty Chief Red Bear,
, " he was so soon to meet in personal
. ' combat,
- CHAPTER Vlir
: ' ! Kit fired. The chief of the Black-
feet pitched forward. The arrow
. , a trained upon Kit broke under him.
Juan, the Indian boy 'Kit had
brought from Oregon, ran forward
" ' with his knife and took the scalplock
of Red Bear. V '
, . 1 Kit was furious.
-"That's1 plain - onchristian," he
. - scolded. . , . But he was thinking
; of the girl in white doeskin who had
i ridden beside this chief. And he
' thought uneasily, "She'll hear of
this. Tales travel faat among the
- Indiana. Shell think I'm to blame."
: They waited all day and night be
. fore the grove, but the chiefless In
dians remained hidden., The trap
pers made litters of long poles and
;r buffalo hides to swing between
- horses for the wounded men. Trap--
per-fashion they sucked dean the
l' wounds, bandaging them with the
inner bark of sycamore." Jacques,
7 the French Canadian, had been shot
in the right leg, evidently with a
!olson arrow. During the day the
imb awe 11 ad and discolored.
I "That leg's comics; off, said Kit
grimly. :
- Even Jacques could not protest
He pulled a deerskin robe over his
face and bit its stiff folds as his
friends worked to save him. Kit's
hunting knife, an ax to break the
bone, a blade heated white by fire to
cauterize the wound, and the thing
.was over. When the awful task was
done, Kit was nearly as spent as the
man wnose me ne naa saved.
"I seen that done once on-the
Santa Fe trail," he told the men, "I
was a sprout of sixteen and I did the
..cauterizing. Injun arrows can be
more pixoness than a dozen rattlers
and Gua monsters put together."
He brought his men safely back
to Captain Fitzpatrkk's camp on
the Arkansas.
Through the remaining months of
that winter, thoughta of the scalped
chief troubled Kit. To kfll an Indian
was white man's work if the Indian
deserved killing. But to scalp him
later was, as Kit often said, plain
'onchristian." Only later when
bounty was put on Indian locks did
white men take up the savage prae-
It was the Indian girl's hearing of
this he dreaded. Already his men
had given him a new title that would
be spread throughout the plains,
"The ATenger,- a ne wing n wu
.a?n wonid be laid to nun. . . .
Indian troubles thickened around
them. The death of Red Bear would
be avenged by the Elackfeet nation,
r TV.VJl at eren with US sure,"
Eit told Fitzpatrick "We'd better

horses. -' I
"I thought they'd come," Kit
chuckled, sitting up in his blanket
without troubling to lift the long
Hawkins rifle that was always
clutched in his arm as he slept.
"They haven't any of our horses,
Cap'n. I hobbled 'em 1"
And truly, at dawn the horses
Were found safe in the sagebrush
and with them was an extra horse
standing over his dead master a
Blackfeet warrior killed by the
guard's rifle.
Kit knew Indian trickery and
could match them trick for trick.
Now he. said, "We'd better get at
least a hundred miles away."
Moving up Green River they were
watched on every side by hidden
eyes. But the beaver pelts were rich
and full that year and otter plenti
ful.' They set traps defiantly and
cursed the Blackfeet who emptied
them in the darkness of night By
day they saw on the mesas the
smoke of Indian signal fires. They
did not leave camp except in sets of
twelve. !
Kit led such a band into an am
bush of sixty Blackfeet His mind
trained by much danger to work
instinctively aa an animal's saved
them.' Without; halting their pace,
he raced with his men the gantlet of
savages and only two of the trap
pers were slightly wounded by ar
rows. ;i ..'! . ' ':;
"Saved our scalps, narrer shave 1"
Kit reported to Fitzpatrkk.
The memory of the beautiful rirl
continued to puzzle Carson. The
Blackfeet was one of the most brut
ally savage of tribes. What was she
doing among them?
Another day he found : twenty
beavers building a dam. This was a
piece of rich good luck, and the trap
pers waded into the dam killine the
furry toilers with clubs. Kit glanced
anxiously at the sun.
"Must be about four o'clock." he
laid, -No time to akin 'em. Well
cache the lot and come back tomor-
To cache such a Urge haul re
quired great skill. Kit had learned
the art from French Canadian trap
pers wao tooK it xrora tbe Indiana.
The men dug a pit on the river bank.
laid in their beaver, and carefully
covered the hole with the sod. Then
all waa dusted with earth and care
fully blown so not a human print
should show. ; Kit surveyed the
ground admiringly. . '

But when they returned next dav
the cache had been rified-ha rich
fur was gone. So Kit Carson swore
eternal warfare on the Blackfeet
tribe. Then Fitxpatrick gave him
eleven -men and wished him God
speed. Over rolling mesas and rreen
prairies in this spring of 1832 rode
Kit Carson, "The Avenger."
Between criss-cross of buffalo
trail he perceived the "Indian sign."
xne twelve trappers reached

CHICAGO, March 2P)-The
wheat market was called - upon
today to absorb increased selling
after yesterday's advance of al
most a cent but it did so with
only minor price reactions " and

tially on slight declines at Liver

She faltered in her fierce tirade.
Her face was suddenly humbled, as
if afraid.
"I am Red Bear's daughter," ahe
said, "You killed my father."
Was she ? Kit would never know
the truth from her. Pine Needle was
her name among the Blackfeet But
Kit who would know many tribes,
would swear ahe was white.
Many white women were to be
found among the Indian tribes that
roved the continent in the past cen
tury. Some had been kidnapped and
were held for ransom. Some were
married or adopted into the tribes.
Many a pioneer mother who, died in
the great trek westward left a child
to be reared by the redsldnned
people. I " .,; ;
There were famous, cases. Kit
himself as a boy hadseen, while
crossing the Rio Grande on his way
to Chihuahua, a white girl in an
Apache band who hid at his -approach.
Many white women were
ransomed but fled from civilization
back to husbands who were chiefs
and babes half -Indian. In the six
ties there would be the famous case
of" Cynthia Ann Parker, stolen at
the age of nine by Comanches who ,
massacred her family in Texas. For
decades, Cynthia Ann was a legend
in the Southwest. Citizens and sol- ;
diers tried in vain to rescue her.
The white girl fled from them.
Cynthia Ann became the mother
of Quartan, the last of the great
Comanche chieftains.
And there were more - ancient
cases. As early as the year 1170,
three hundred Welsh men and
women came to America. They van
ished. But it is said that Welsh
words are to be heard in the Modoc
dialects of Oregon. Also, what be- -came
of the colony founded in 1585
in Virginia by Sir Walter Raleigh,
that vanished lea vine behind the:
single word "Roanoak" carved on a
tree?
In red streams crossinr our con- ;
tinent, much white blood has

Kit Carson would often wonder.
recalling Pine Needle as she stood
now, like a peeled white willow
wand before the darker Blackfeet
women, defying Kit and his
avengers.
Her lack of fear deliahted him.
He knew the trick of it firhtinsr
down fear, feeling only contempt! "
In this mood she waa Indian.
"I like your atumntion. ami." he
told her with the smile that had won
women's hearts from Taos to Call- '

Her answer was like a hiss. '
