Overview

Excerpt from Oowikapun, or How the Gospel Reached the Nelson River Indians Fastening the mink in his belt, he hurried on to his camp as fast as he could under his heavy load for his wounded arm had begun to swell, and was causing him intense pain. His stoical Indian nature would have caused him to bear the pain with indifference; but when he remembered how the wolf, maddened by his capture, had wrought himself up into such a frenzy, and that his mouth was foaming with madness when he made that last desperate spring and succeeded in fastening his fangs in his arm, he feared that perhaps some of that froth might have gotten into his blood. He understood that unless some remedies were quickly obtained, madness might come to him, to be followed by a death most dreadful. But what could he do? He was several days' journey from his own village, and many miles from any hunter of his acquaint ance. He had, in his vanity, come alone on this hunting expedition, and now, alone in the woods, far away from his friends, here he is in his hunting lodge, a dangerously wounded man.
