CHAPTER X V II
I
How Solomon Shifted the Skeer.
In the spring news enme o f a great
force o f B ritish which was being or­
ganised In Canada fo r a descent upon
New York through Lake Chatoplsln.
f ron tler settlers In T ryon county were
being massacred by Indiana.
Generals Ile rk lm e r nod Schuyler
had w ritte n to Washington, asking for
the service» of the famous SCOUt, Solo­
mon Blnkus. In that region.
"H e knows the Indian as no other
man knows him and can speak his lan­
guage and he also knows the hush,"
Schuyler had w ritten . “ I f there Is
any place on earth where his help 1«
needed Just now, It Is here "
"Got to leave ye, my «on," Solomon
'•ahi to J.ttk one evening soon after
that.
"H ow to?" the young man asked.
"Goin' hum to tight Iotuna.
The
G rrat Father tins ordered It. I 'll like
It better. G lttlu ' laz.y (lore. Summer's

kind o' uneasy—like a deer in a door-
yard. I ain't had to ran fer my life
since we got here My hoofs are com­
plainin'.
I ain’t shot a gun In a
month."
A look o f sorrow spread over the
face o f Solomon.
"I'm ttred o f this p la f f ," said Jack.
“ The Y trltls h ore scared” of us and
w e re Beared of the B ritish . There's
nothing going on. I'd love to go back
to the big bush w ith you."
''I 'll te ll the Great F ather that
you're a born bush man. Mebbe tie'll

U n it. day Jack's name was Included
In Mie order.
‘T aai sorry that it Is not yet possible
to p a y you or any o f the men who have
served tne so fa ith fu lly .” said Wash­
ington. " I f you need money I shall be
glad to lend yon a sum to help you
through this Journey.”
" I a in 't flgh tln' fe r pay,” Solomon
answered. " I 'l l hoe an' dig, an' cook,
an' guide fe r money. But I won't tight

my britches pocket, hut I f I hadn't,
my o l' M a rle r wouldn't let me go hun­
gry.”
In A p ril the two frien ds set out
afoot fo r tlw lower end o f the H ig h ­
lands. On the rive r they hired a Dutch
fa rm e r to fake them on to Albany In
his sloop. A fte r tw o de lig htful days

traversing the wilderness to Hie valley
o f the great riv e r of the north, as fa r
as possible toward Swegachle, and re­
porting th e ir observations to Crown
Point o r F ort Edward, If there seemed
to be occasion fo r It, and I f not, they
were to proceed to General H erkim er's
comp at O riskany and give him what
help they could In protecting the set­
tlers In the west.
"You would need to take all your
w it and courage w ith you." the gen­
eral warned them. "The Indians are
In bad temper. They have taken to
roasting th e ir prisoners at the stake
and earing th e ir flesh. T his Is a haz­
ardous undertaking. Therefore, I give
you a suggestion and not an order."
“ I 'll go ’lone," said Solomon. “ I f I
get et up It needn't break nobody's
heart. Let Jack go to one o’ the
forts."
“ No, I'd rathe r go Into the bush w ith
you,” said Jack. "W e re both needed
there. I f necessary we could separate
and carry our warning In two direc
tlons. W e'll take a couple of the new-
double-barreled rifles and fo u r pis­
tols. I f we had to, I th in k we could
tight a hole through any trouble we
are like ly to have."
So It was decided that they should
go together on this scouting trip Into
the north bush. Solomon had long be­
fore that Invented what he called "a
IIghtoIn’ throw er" fo r close fighting
w ith Indians, to be used If one were
bard pressed and outnumbered and
lik e ly to have his scalp taken. This
odd contrivance he had never had oc­
casion to use. I t was u thin, round
shell o f cast Irou w ith a tube, a flint
and plunger. The shell was o f about
the size of a large apple. It was to be
Riled w ith missiles and gunpowder.
Tha plunger, w ith Its spring, wag set
vertica lly above the tube. In throw ­
ing thia contrivance one released Its
spring by the pressure o f his thumb.
The hammer fe ll and the spark tt
made Ignited a fuse leading down to
the powder. Its owner had to throw
It from behind a tree or have a share
in the peril It was sure to create.
W hile Jack was at home w ith his
people Solomon spent a week In the
foundry and forge and, before they
set out on th e ir Journey, had three of
these unique weapons, all loaded and
parked In w aterproof wrappings.
About the m iddle o f May they pro
reeded In a lig h t bark canoe to Fort
Edward and carried It across country
to Lake George and made the ir way
w ith paddles to Ticonderoga. There
they learned that acouts were operat­
ing only on and near Lake Champlain. |
The Interio r o f Tryon county was said
to be dangerous ground. Mohawks,
Cagnawagns, Senecas, Algonqulna and
Hurons were thick In the bush and all
on the warpath. They were to rtu rin g
and eating every w h ite man that fell
In th e ir hands, save those w ith a Tory
m ark on them.
"W e're steered o' the hush," said an
elderly bearded soldier, who was s it­
tin g on a log. "A man who goes Into
the wlldwood needs to be a good friend
of God."
"B u t Schuyler thinks a force o f B r it­
ish may land somewhere along the big
riv e r and come down through the hush,
building a road as they advance,” said
Jack.
"A thousand men could make a tor-
able wsggln road to F ort Edward
*
m onth," Solomon declared.
“ That's
mebbe the reason the Injuns are out
In the bush satin' Yankees. They're
t y l n ' fe r to skeer ns an' keep us er-

don't ye go ont tha r In the bush and
do a little skeerln' yerselves? Ye're
like a lo t o' o l' women settln' by the
fire an' ta ilin ' ghos' stories."
"W e got 'nuflf to do considerin' the
pay we g it," said a sergeant.
" H —1 an' T oph et! W hat do ye w ant
o' pay?" Solomon answered. "A in 't ye

kicked an' robbed an' spit ou, an'

Solomon was pu tting fresh provisions
In h it pack a t he talked.
"A ll the In ju fls o’ K inady an" th e

We're liable to be skeered, but also
an' likewise w e'll do some akeerln’
'fore we give up—you hear to m e."
Jack and Solomon set out In the
bush that aftarnoon and before night
fo il were up on the mountain slants
north o f the Glassy Water, as Lake
George was often called those days.
But fe r Solomon's caution an evil fa te
had perhaps come to them before th e ir
firs t sleep on the Journey. The new
leaves were Jutt out. but not quite
fu ll. The little maples «fid beeches
flung their sprays of v iv id green fo li­
j age above the darker shades o f tha
witch hopple Into the soft-lighted air
o f the great house of the «rood and
filled It w ith a pleasant odor. A m ile
or so baek. Solomon had le ft the tra il
and cautioned Jack to keep close and

and listened and put hts ear to th«
ground.
He rose and beckoned to
Jack and the two turned aside and
made their way stealthily up the slant
o f a ledge. In the edge o f a little
thicket on njnog»y rock shelf they sat
down. Solomon looked serious. Thera
were deep furrow» in the skin above
his brow.
A fte r a few minutes Solomon turned
and whispered:
