“Well Charles, guess it’s time to find out if your idea works.” Garrett said and then turned to Scoutash. “Are you sure you want to do this?”
“Wyandots have honor,” the brave said, with a determined look. “It was taken away. We will get it back, along with the horses.”
“How will you parley with them?” Garrett asked.
“The leader spoke white man’s language,” Scoutash said. “I will use that.”
“OK then,” Charles said. “I guess it’s time. Captain, you ride over on that ridge. Scoutash, you give us the signal by raising your bow over your head.”
The four braves began slowly riding down to the camp, as Charles began unrolling the blanket out on the ground and laying out the contents. By the time the Wyandots were within 500 feet of the camp, a dozen Sioux rode out to intercept them.
