They feasted their vision on the magnificent scene,\u003cbr\u003ewith the miles of wilderness, mountain, vale, river and Indian villages\u003cbr\u003espread between their feet and the ocean.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt was a picture worth journeying across the continent to see. From\u003cbr\u003ebeyond the convex world a ship had sailed up to view, its snowy sails\u003cbr\u003elooking at first like a tiny but growing cloud in the soft sky. As the\u003cbr\u003ecraft drew steadily nearer, they saw it careening to one side under the\u003cbr\u003eimpulse of the wind against the bellying canvas, while the curling foam\u003cbr\u003eat the bows spread out like a fan and dissolved in the clear waters\u003cbr\u003ebeyond the stern.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeerfoot had taken the glass after Mul-tal-la was through, and he stood\u003cbr\u003efor a long time gazing at the waste of waters. None spoke, for there\u003cbr\u003ewas that in the scene and the occasion which made all thoughtful. The\u003cbr\u003egrandeur, the majesty, the vastness filled them with awe and held them\u003cbr\u003emute. Finally, the Shawanoe lowered the instrument, and turning toward\u003cbr\u003ethe boys, said gravely, as he pointed first to the east and then to the\u003cbr\u003ewest:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Yonder is the endless forest of wood, and yonder the endless forest of\u003cbr\u003ewater; they shall all become the home of the white man.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I don't doubt you are right,\" replied George Shelton, \"but it will be\u003cbr\u003ehundreds of years after you and I are dead; there is room between here\u003cbr\u003eand the Ohio for millions upon millions, but where will they come\u003cbr\u003efrom?\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The white men will become like the leaves in the forest and the sands\u003cbr\u003eon the seashore; no one can count the numbers that will overspread the\u003cbr\u003eland; they will be everywhere.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"And what of your own people, Deerfoot?\" asked Victor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe dusky youth shook his head, as if the problem was beyond him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The two ought to live in peace side by side, for such is the will of\u003cbr\u003ethe Great Spirit. The white man cannot become like the red man, but the\u003cbr\u003ered man may grow into the ways of the pale-faces, and all may be\u003cbr\u003ebrothers, and so live till time shall be no more.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe theme was too profound for the youths, though it was manifest that\u003cbr\u003ethe Shawanoe had given much thought to it. He added nothing, and while\u003cbr\u003ethe day was young they walked back to the Columbia, re-entered the\u003cbr\u003ecanoe and headed up stream.","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47176466137328,"sku":"2940013289291","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013289291_p0.jpg?v=1763590590","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013289291","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
