The Indian drew a knife, and Mrs. Manning turned to Sarah and said,  "Go and call your Father."  Sarah said "Daddy isn't home."  The Indian, not understnading all that was said left.  Mrs. Manning told Sarah, when Indians were near, to go like she was going into another room and say nothing. It was a lesson not to be forgotten by Sarah.
