Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Matouchon a Story of Indian Child Life One bright spring morning, in 188 -, Dr. George Holley, physician to the Government, was on his way to one of the camps of the Apaches for the purpose of attending an old woman who was ill. The Doctor was a tall young man, with a broad chest and a pair of very strong, long legs that could carry him for many miles over the plains without weariness. He was nearing middle life, but as yet there was very little gray in his dark brown hair; and his eyes were as keen and sparkling as they had been when he was a boy. He was walking very fast, for he was in haste. There were several sick Indians around the Agency, and he felt that he must visit them all that day; the most of them before midday, if possible. The sun shone with a pure, gold radiance from a deep blue sky. The air was very bracing and the pungent odor of the wild sage, just putting forth its blooms, was very pleasing to the Doctor´s keen nostrils. All around him stretched the boundless prairie; not a tree nor a shrub was to be seen, save the waving grass and the bright patches of wild flowers. He was walking directly away from the river, or the line of low-growing cottonwoods and willows marking its flow would have been visible.
