Last of the Mohicans: Chapters 4-6

I didn't really like these chapters, there was too much death violence and attempted murder.  I don't like conflict, so the showdown between Magua and Hawkeye stressed me out. I don't want any human to ever kill another. I was glad Magua escaped. Then there was more death, the killing of Gamut's horse. I understand that they didn't want to get caught but I felt like death was extreme. I just don't like it when things die. Maybe that makes me impractical, but I don't care, it makes me sad. I also don't trust Hawkeye yet. I feel like he can contradict himself. Being upset he may have wounded an Indian but then being fine with killing a horse. He seems a little shifty. I guess we'll see.
