The Hidden Children "What is it that you and this Mohican have still to say to each other?" The Hidden Children Only a thick darkness is there—an endless gloom to which the Mohican hatchets long, long ago dispatched the severed souls they struck!

The Hidden Children The Mohican led us; I followed him; the last Oneida marked the trees for a new and better trail, and a straighter one not following every bend in the river. The Hidden Children I glanced at the Mohican in startled silence, for we all were listening very intently to the distant crows. The Hidden Children I was aroused toward nine by the Mohican, and sat up as wide awake as a disturbed tree-cat, instantly ready for trouble. The Hidden Children I said: "The Indians hereabout are Mohican, are they not, Mr. Hays?" The Hidden Children Now, you Mohican slave and you Oneida dogs, you shall know the power of Amochol.
