Christopher Carson

CHAPTER VI
33/36

The wretch had sought the life of Carson; but Carson had sought only to subdue the tyrant.
Shunan was thoroughly humbled, and became as docile as a child.

They took him to his tent, and treated him with all the rough nursing which trappers in the wilderness could bestow.

The shattered bones of course could never recover their former strength.

The weakest of those upon whom he formerly trampled, could now chastise him, should he assume any of his former insolent airs.

The tyrant became docile as a child, and the whole camp regarded Carson as its benefactor.
It is worthy of special notice, that Mr.Carson was not at all elated by his victory.
