ending of the pioneers
grave yard scene,,, people wondering who will bury them
they gave the hunter money in the end
This stone is raised to the memory of an Indian Chief of the Delaware tribe, who was known by the several names of John Mohegan Mohican———'”
“Mo-hee-can, lad, they call theirselves! 'hecan.”
“Mohican; and Chingagook—”
“'Gach, boy; 'gach-gook; Chingachgook, which interpreted, means Big-sarpent. The name should be set down right, for an Indian's name has always some meaning in it.”
“I will see it altered. 'He was the last of his people who continued to inhabit this country; and it may be said of him that his faults were those of an Indian, and his virtues those of a man.'”
