It was long ago in the early morning as the sun came up, a warrior went down a path he was not supposed to go on by him self.  But rather than wake any one, he ventured out to greet the new day on his own. He was 30 minutes or so into his walk when a small band of huron warriors seen him.  It was to late to run.  He was captured.  Instead of killing him, the young warriors decided to tie him by one leg and pull him up into a tree. Then after he was pulled, they took his knife and put it in the ground just out of his reach.  He was stuck there with no help .   A few hours went by.   The pain was grave and he didn't know how long he could stand it. His mind raced.  He tried everything he could but to no avail.

Suddenly, a small child, a girl about 9 years old appeared.  She was very scared and started to run away.  He called to her and said,  "Please hand me my knife.  I will be grateful and I can get down from this tree.  But,  if you are too scared to give me the knife,  then climb the tree and cut it yourself."  After thinking on it,  the small girl climbed the tree and cut the rope .  Before he hit the ground,  the child had dissapeared.

Many years passed by and the young warrior had grown and had been in many battles.  He was very handsome and a great leader. There was a day when he was called to fight for his people.  as allways there was no hesitation, he went , On this day he was shot as were many the bodies littered the feild, it was early in the morning he had been there all night unable to move, as the sun warmed his face a beautiful young women came to his side and picked up his head she asked if there was any thing she could do his reply was yes , if you will i would like a drink of water he siped the water slowely and recognized the women as the small girl who had cut him from the tree he smiled as his heart stopped beating she layed his head down and his spirit was free.
