Ihn als einen ihrer eigenen Leute in den Stamm zu nehmen oder ihn zu indianisch zu machen. Sie zogen sein ganzes Haar aus, bis auf eine lange Sperre, genannt die Kopfhaut-Sperre, die sie verließen, um in Indianmode zu wachsen. Die Hausbesetzer ^ und Mädchen flochten helle Federn in diese Schleuse, so dass Boone ziemlich schwul aussah. Dann nahmen ihn Theindianer auf einen Fluss. Dort streiften sie ihn und schrubben ihn mit aller Macht, um zischweißes Blut herauszubekommen, wie sie sagten. Als Nächstes bemalten sie seine Faceinstreifen mit rotem und gelbem Ton

They pulled out all his hair except one long lock, called the scalp-lock, which they left to grow in Indianfashion. The squaws ^ and girls braided bright feathers inthis lock, so that Boone looked quite gay. Then theIndians took him down to a river. There they strippedhim, and scrubbed him with all their might, to get hiswhite blood out, as they said.
