Words do not pay for my dead people.

We had good white friends who advised us against taking the war path. My friend and brother, Mr. Chapman, told us just how the war would end.

Some of you think an Indian is like a wild animal. This is a great mistake.

I cannot tell how much my heart suffered for my people while at Leavenworth.

I have heard talk and talk, but nothing is done.

If the white man wants to live in peace with the Indian, he can live in peace. There need be no trouble. Treat all men alike. give them all the same law. Give them all an even chance to live and grow.

I will obey every law, or submit to the penalty.
