"I believe what that mysterious person told us is true," said Turning Eagle.
"Well, she did not send the Shawnees here," said Running Fox. "Perhaps Big Dog will come. We must keep watching."
"Is Big Dog alone?" inquired Painted Hawk.
"No," said Running Fox. "Two warriors are with him. That mysterious person told us about them. They are Many Beavers and Striking Bear. She says they are very brave."
"If she knows these things, she must be a Shawnee," declared Crooked Foot. "If she is a Shawnee, I believe she is trying to fool us."
"I believe she knows these things because she is a great Medicine Person," Running Fox told him. "If she is a Shawnee, how does she know about that signal? Spotted Deer did not tell the Shawnees about it. My brothers, I do not know who that strange person is, but I believe she is working against the Shawnees. I believe she is trying to help us."
His confidence quieted the suspicions of his friends. They, too, began to rely upon the aid of the mysterious stranger. Having discovered them near the village, it was evident that she had concealed the fact from the Shawnees. The Delawares took hope in the thought.
"Well, we will wait here and see if her words come true," said Yellow Wolf.
"Yes, we will watch for Big Dog," Running Fox told him.
