Bread-and-Butter Indian

Pioneer life was often frightening and lonely for a little girl. Young Barbara, without a best friend, loved to play with her doll at tea parties in the woods; and it was there that she offered her bread and butter to a hungry looking Indian. Although they couldn't understand each other's language, a strong bond of friendship grew between them, and one day Barbara's bread-and-butter Indian repaid her kindness in an extraordinary way.
