Not illustrated. 1872 Excerpt: ...like a waterfowl, and reappearing, after a half minute's absence, a long distance from the place of his exit. It was necessary for the Indian to breathe more than once before he reached Isaac; and he did so with the dexterity worthy of an Indian, by turning on his back and merely projecting his nose for an instant above water. Jethro and the captain watched the wary approach of the Indian to the vicinity of the unsuspecting boy, until they had satisfied themselves of the ulterior design of the assailant. The skiff was again in motion. Assailant and assailed had both disappeared;--the first to ferret out his intended prey, and take him by surprise; and the other, without a thought of what was about to ensue, to try the length of time that he could remain beneath the water without drawing breath. Presently two heads appeared simultaneously above water, confronting each other; and two long breathing sounds, like the blowing of a porpoise, accompanied by a hurried ejection of water from the mouth, freed the lungs of both the swimmers at the same moment. "The demon, Quibby, again!" exclaimed Isaac, as he dashed forward in the water. A strife of breasting the waves again ensued, which betrayed the earnestness with which each sought to outdo the other.
