“Sabre-tooth was going away”
The wild animals were getting ready for winter.
Some of them were crawling into their holes.
Others were starting for the south.
The fire clan hoped that in a few days Sabre-tooth would go.
They wanted his cave for the winter, so they kept watch of all that he did.
They knew that he slept in his cave all the day and seldom left it except at night.
One morning Strongarm saw him come out of the cave and start off toward the south.
He believed that Sabre-tooth was going away, so he hurried and told his people.
