At times, an Indian warrior, when about to kill and scalp a prostrate
enemy, addresses him in such terms as the following:--
"My name is Cashegra: I am a famous warrior, and am going to kill you. When
you reach the land of spirits, you will see the ghost of my father: tell
him it was Cashegra sent you there." The uplifted tomahawk then descends
upon his victim.--_Ibid._
