Hostile Spy
|
|
by Ernest Thompson SetonHanging from the Totem pole is a red or yellow handkerchief. This is the Grand Medicine Trophy of the band. The Hostile Spy has to capture it. The leader goes around on the morning of the day and whispers to the various members, "Look out-there's a spy in camp." At length he goes secretly near the one he has selected for spy and whispers, "Look out, there's a spy in camp, and you are it." He gives him at the same time some bright-colored badge, that he must wear as soon as he has secured the Medicine Trophy. He must not hide the Trophy on his person, but keep it in view. He has all day till sunset to get away with it. If he gets-across the river or other limit, he wins and they must pay an agreed ransom for the Trophy. If he is caught, he loses and has to pay a ran a ransom for himself. |
