First Sentence: |
In the troublous times of the early settlement of the West men were often employed to roam the pathless wilderness in the capacity of scouts and spies, in order to detect the approach of large or small parties of Indians, and give timely warning to the scattered settlers, that they might collect in a body to meet and repel their red foes, or find protection inside of their rude forts. |
