First Sentence: When my grandfather migrated to Cincinnati in the year 1802, both Kentucky and Ohio were still almost unreclaimed wildernesses. (Good News edition)
Last Sentence: This, and similar adventures related to him, caused my grandfather to take an unusual interest in their young hero, but, as the country filled up with settlers, he lost all track of him; for, most likely, Little-rifle was one of those born hunters who, like the red warriors themselves, flee the approach of civilization, and drift westward, ever westward, with the smoke of their vanishing wigwams.
