CHAPTER VI.
INDIAN STORIES.

Home of the Indian’s wild-born race,

The stalwart and the brave;

Alike their camp and hunting-place,

Their battle-field and grave;

Where late gigantic warriors stood,

As thick as pine-trees in the wood,

Or snipes on Jersey shore;

“Tecumseh,” “Beaver,” and “Split Log,”

And “Keokuk,” and “Horned Frog,”
