I KIT I 4 EVELYN W£LLS £ J

SYNOPSIS In the spring of 1829. Kit Carson, then 19. first rode with a party of trappere from Taos, New Mexico, into California in search of beaver fur riches. Fighting the Apache, harried by Mexican authorities, ambushed by the Mojave redskins, adding always to their store of thick pelts-the party reached Los Angeles before they turned back toward the dark-eyed women and fiery “Taos lightning" they had left behind. In the fall of 1830 Kit rode again with a band of trappers, who followed what would later be the Oregon trail. Snow—and Black-feet-halted them in the region later to be part of Wyoming. There Kit first caught sight of the beautiful maid. Pine Needle, daughter of Chief Red Bear, destined to die by Kit's hand. When next the young scout met Pine Needle he saw that her eyes were blue and her skin pale gold, but . . . fiery hate blazed from those eyes, hate for the white man who had slain her father. In the fight at the Indian village, a rifle ball struck Kit's throat and passed through his shoulder. It was Pine Needle who packed his wounds with snow to stop their bleeding, then sent him away horse, while hatred still fought tenderness in her eyes. All that fall the trappers were harried by the Blackfeet. Kit cautioned each of the men to see that no harm must befall Pine Needle. A Blackfeet surprise attack was expected at any moment . . . CHAPTER XII Kit, on guard over the sleeping trappers, saw the body of a great wolf outlined in the darkness beyond the camp fire. “Could that be an Injun?” he worried, for Indians often dressed in the skins of animals when stalking their enemies. Again he heard teeth snap in the darkness. Fitzpatrick lifted his head from his blanket. “What’s that, Kit?” “A wolf. The dogs barked." “Yo’re sartin it’s wolf?” “Sartin sure, Cap’n. I heard his teeth snap.” Fitzpatrick lay down again. “Well, don't shoot. You might hit one of our dogs.” As he ended that remark, fury broke out around the sleeping camp. The “wolf” reared, shedding its hide, and limned in the dark was a savage with eagle feather headdress floating to its knees. From the surrounding* brush a hundred black bodies leaped, howled, shrieked, shot arrows into the camp. Leaping Indians surrounded the camp like a jagged circle of black flame. Trappers always slept with rifles i it'k’s mi-fl v»‘lf •riMtaiitiy on i hpir i feet, firing at the grim bodies leaping against the dark sky. Modern lead answered primitive flint and suddenly the Indians vanished into the night. Only trapper Davis slept on in his blanket, forever, with five arrows piercing his buffalo robe and body. Next morning Kit found two small flat bones on the trampled earth. "That consarn Injin!” he marveled. "He clacked these in his hand and fooled me into thinking he was really a wolf!” All the rest of that winter the trappers were harried by the Blackfeet. The plains grew colder. The rivers were frozen. There were not even roots to satisfy their hunger and the horses were dying. Kit turned his eyes from the starving faces of his friends. He took ten men on a hopeless hunt for food over the snowy wastes near the Snake River. Liggett and Meek were among the men who rode with him that day. Fifty Blackfeet warriors surrounded them in the snow. Kit underwent the awful experience of running the gauntlet! He raced, lying low on his light plainsman’s saddle, between whizzing arrows and spears. He reached the camp in safety but two of his men lay back on the Laramie plain. Fitzpatrick sent two men as messengers to Fort Laramie. They

were never heard from again. Then tha trappers marched for safety to Fort Hall, a walled adobe square on the Snake River founded by Nathaniel Wyeth in this year, 1834. Word came of new depredations. Fitzpatrick lost his entire pack train to Crows on the warpath. Bridger had two new Blackfeet arrows in his back. Joe Meek, out hunting, was chased back into the fort by a band of whooping Blackfeet. The Sioux penetrated the Blackfeet country and Kit led skirmishes against them. Tha tribes of the Southwest had risen against the white invaders, but fiercest of all were the Blackfeet. Kit remembered the taunting words of a girl in white doeskin and vowed vengeance. Then one day in the warming spring sunshine, two plainly dreaaed Indians appeared at the gates of the fort corral. Calmly, under the very eyes of the Indian servants on guard there, the two disguised Blackfeet drove away all the white men’s horses! After that, the trappers—horseless—fumed in the fort until other trappers arrived bringing fresh horses. Then Kit declared: “This has gone far enough. A lot of our men have been killed and not a hand raised against the Blackfeet. With fifty men I can drive them back.” This time all were with Kit. He went out to scout Alone, he rode deeper into tha lonely country of the Blackfeet. The scent of the sage was heavy, for it was springtime now of 1835. And one morning, his horse tethered among pines a half mile away. Kit lay alone on a rounded hill and saw in the hollow below a great village of Blackfeet, and among them many women. They were breaking camp. The girl—so well remembered—was not among them. Was he glad for this—or sorry? Kit was not certain. When he returned to that village three days later, forty-three men followed Kit Carson. And after them, a day’s journey between, followed fifty more trappers to give aid should it be needed. Kit led the charge on the moving village which was now a wavering line of scrubby horses burdened with tent poles and leather rolls, of women walking and carrying babes, of handsome Arab-like men on horseback. Kit led his shouting men along the protected line, firing upon the warriors. “Spare the women!” he warned them anxiously, for thoughts of the girl, who had defied and taunted and cared for him while battle raged, was always with him. The trappers charged, and killed ten of the foremost warriors. Backward. font, by font over the ®»gebxusa. pia.ns of Laramw, tacy drove the fighting Blackfeet. The women fled, carrying babes, driving horses that dragged tepees. Before them in a wavering copper line, red men fought from their wild horses. All that morning, redskin and white vied for supremacy, and many of the tribe were dead, and two of Kit’s own men. Then Kit inspected powder bags and leathern pouches. “Ammunition's running low, boys ; We'd better be turnin’. We’ve | taught ’em a lesson they won’t for-' get.” But when they turned, the ent- I boldened warriors followed. Women ! and babes and old men struck camp I and waited. Indian scouts ran out I in various directions . . . “For morel Injuns,” observed Kit grimly as he j led his men in retreat to a grove of I felled cottonwood trees with which | they hastily threw up a barricade. I He said, “So long as our lead holds out . . .’’ They massed their horses within the rude fort, and watched at the log crevices with drawn guns, They had no food, no w’ater. It was a contest of waiting. For three days they waited. Not a shot was fired. Not an arrow. But silently, around them on the plains, came the Blackfeet. In groups of ten, fifty, a hundred, the great Blackfeet nation was summoned to this kill for Kit Carson the

Avenger was helpless in barricade. 1 The word had gone forth through the wandering Arab-like bands. Kit Carson —now was the time to , strike him down 1 That third day, Kit Carson and his forty men saw a spectacle never ■ to be forgotten. One thousand Blackfeet warriors, feathered and scalp- . bedecked, carrying arrows and ; knivss, danced the war dance to the throb of drums around the Im- . prisoned white men. The muffled i stamp of softly-shod feet shook the ground under the trappers’ feet. , The monotonous shout, “Hui-hui!” carried the taste of blood. Kit cocked a worried blue eye against the cottonwood logs. “This will go on all night. TomorI row—they’ll be sure to swarm in on , us. Some of us better get some sleep , —our last sleep—maybe.” And hs was right At dawn the thousand warriors swarmed like gi- . gantie droning wasps and closed in , a great hideous ring around Kit’s little barricade. “No white man ever looked on s sight like this before, boys," re- . marked Kit softly, and he added, “No white man's ever likely t« agin.” The savages surrounded the shelter now. Their bodies were oiled and their faces, painted with red stripes on forehead and cheeks, were haggard from the death dance ot the night before. Black leggings wrspped their dark linibs and these and the breech-clouts and feather headdresses were all they wore. They carried bows and arrows, lances and tomahawks, and a few had rifles. Cruel, inscrutable as stalking beasts, they closed in the great circle. Kit found himself thinking starkly, “Yet they are her people. They can’t be like beasts.” Even in this moment he recalled a girl gentle as a doe, with dark braids framing a face sweeter than any he had ever looked upon, with blue eyes startling against a skin of gold. Even in this moment it was no weman of the East Kit remembered, no maid of Taos, but Pine Needle of the Arapaho band of the great fiterce nation of Blackfeet. These were her people, creeping upon him! Look as he might. Kit saw no mercy on their terrible faces Dark, venomous, shaped in some bloody age of savagery, they formed a living wall around the barricade that sheltered Kit’s starving men. Still not a shot was fired. Not an arrow slithered over the barrier. “Hold your fire, boys. Every shot has to tell. Shoot for the near line. Aim for the biggest bucks, and the Lord help us!” Kit was giving directions for slaughter such as would never again i be seen m these plams. h'nriy ■ «£’?.! HSI 3 thoUSSHd. What hope had they! Yet the trappers fought like caged rats striking at their captors. Don't let them find a man of us alive if they mount this blockade,” was Kit’s grim order, and his men replied with understanding and despair. Suicide was better than torture. And beyond the ring of warriors, far out on the plain, Kit had seen smoke that revealed the camp ’of the women. They had returned to I wait the capture of the whites. But she was not among them! i Kit knew that and was thankful. Time after time the Blackfeet , charged. Their arrows studded the | logs felled so hastily by the trapI pers. They could not drive out the ! whites. At every charge more Indians died under trapper fire and j the trappers yelled and jeered in | hopeless combat. Braves crept : nearer to send flaming arrows at the walls, but the logs refused to burn. Late that day, and on the next day, Kit let blood from the terrified horses to help his wounded and thirst-tortured men. They had been four days without water or food. A ring of Blackfeet dead surrounded their shelter. But over these, fiercer and faster, came the tide of red skinned assault groups. (To Be Continued) CotvrliM Dr Snijß Weil,.
