TY.
UNION MISSION.

In the following letter, Colonel NJ
Kenney, Superintendent of Indian
Trade. has obligingly furnished us
with an extract of communication,
lately made by the Assistant OF the Un-
ion Mission, to the Secretary OF War.
This extract it will be seen, contains
some facts respecting the preparations
at Union, which were not before known
to the board. 1t also discloses the feel
ings of Mr.. Chapman in relation to
The impending indian war.
"0Gce Of Indian Trade,
March 90, 1921
DEAR SIR thinking it would De
gratifying to the friends OF the Arkan-
sas mission, | annex al extract or a
letter received a few days ago by the
honorable, the secretary of war, from
Mr.. Chapman of the Union mission.
After announcing the arrival of the
pioneers of the family at the place for
the mission, he proceeds -
I'VE Immediately commenced the e.
rection of cabins for the convenience
of the family on their arrival. These
cabins are five in number, united in one
building eighty feet in length and eigh-
teen in width. Preparations are also
making for inclosing All hundred acres
or more of land for tiIlage in the ensu-
ing season. We have purchased five
horses, and have in possession thirty
three head of cattle, and between Sc
venly and hundred swine, all al the
station. Our school will be opened this
season for the education of Indian chill
dren, unless prevented by war. In
case of war We shall probably do lit
tie more than provide for ourselves, d
make preparations for opening school
on larger scale, when war shall have
ceased.
"Mr. Chapman closes by referring
to the measures, which the government
has so wisely concerted for the govern
ment Of the Indians; and as war might
prove fatal to the attempt to benefit
them, expresses the hope that means
may be adopted to stay its raVages and
reiDstate the parties in peace, and ex-
planning the causes why more formal
report had not been made.
From MIR. Chapman's letter the
friends of the mission may draw the
evidence of the state of security in
which the family feel themselves. MIR.
Chapman seems to dread nothing,
except suspension of the opera
tons Of the mission, which, howe.
YER, will give time to make arrange
ments for more extensive useful
ness. unless the war shall terminate in
the destruction of the Indians.
Very respectfully, yours. &c.
