: Myrrh,
: I believe this is my mistake; for the first time I heard clearly: "Ongewasgone, you stayin'?" and I think "I" inserted the "Uncle" in my mind from our Mohicanland forays (as I thought he was a totally made up figure)....sorry to lead you down the wrong path....
: And I also wished the music stayed intact and not so chopped up.

Hi Jo, Myrrh, and anyone else who cares to comment,
This has always puzzled me. It sounds like Hawkeye addresses Chingachgook as Ongewasgone when they are talking about leaving the fort, but wasn't Ongewasgone the Mohawk who spoke at Cameron's cabin (played by Dennis Banks)? The line to Chingachgook has never made sense to me. Anyone have an interpretation?
