EARLY HISTORY OF CLOUD COUNTY
BY H.E. SMITH
July 24, 1874
A BORDER HEROINE
In imagination, she saw the rush of the Indians across the clearing—the sudden, murderous attack—the frightful massacre—the loved home swallowed up in smoke, and fire, and blood. Without pausing to reply further to the words of her friend, Edith turned about and hastened in the direction of her house.
He called to her, and warned her again and again that she must not think of venturing into the woods in the presence of such danger; but she made no answer, and a few minutes later was wending her way through the forest.
When the girl had walked along for a half-mile, she regained something like control of her feelings, and viewed her own position with something of deliberation. She found she had made a mistake in the time of leaving the settlement, and that it was so late in the afternoon that it was already growing dark. Furthermore, it was becoming quite chilly—the wind soughed dismally among the trees, and there was evidently snow in the air.
The reaction that succeeded the first shock of terror in her mind caused her to begin to entertain hope that her fears were groundless. The Indian party were seen in altogether a different direction, and probably had no hostile purpose in visiting the section. It was not at all unlikely that they had already returned.
At this rate, Edith bade fair to work herself back into quite a hopeful frame of mind, when her fears were roused to a tenfold intensity by hearing the report of guns ahead of her, and from the direction of her home.
She paused, with her hand upon her heart, and listened. All was still, except the mournful sighing of the wind among the trees. She was about halfway between the settlement and her home, so that if she had purposed to flee, there was no choice of the direction to pursue.
Her position was as lonely and gloomy as it is possible to imagine. It was already so dark that, as she glanced furtively up and down the road, she could see but a short distance; but, brief as it was, her terrified vision pictured the path, with the figures of scowling, horribly-painted demons stealing down upon her.
