Magua
The older of Colonel Munro’s two daughters, with dark hair and a strong, courageous disposition, Cora is the daughter of Munro’s first wife, herself of a partly West Indian line. It is strongly implied that Uncas falls in love, in however chaste a fashion, with Cora, and Uncas fights to defend Cora from Magua. Cora, for her part, seems much more sympathetic to the Native Americans in general than other white characters in the novel. Cora is killed by another Huron during Magua’s attempt to take her back to his wigwam.
