It takes few words to tell the truth.
I am not a child, I think for myself. No man can think for me.
I hope that no more groans of wounded men and women will ever go to the ear of the Great Spirit Chief above, and that all people may be one people.
I will obey every law, or submit to the penalty.
I only ask of the government to be treated as all other men are treated.
I said in my heart that, rather than have war, I would give up my country.
