AN INDIAN TRAGEDY.
Camden, Hillsdale co., Mich } Mo- 8

The following Indian tragedy is related to me
BY James Fowle, Esq, Of this place. IL occurred
in this vicinity, all the parties being his neigh
bors: r
! In the spring Of 1887 Nogisqua, an Indian q
the Pottawatomie tribe, residing in this vicinity,
having pawned his gun and part of his clothing,
from time to time, to man named John N --
for intoxicating drink, the trader proposed to the
Indian that if he would sell him certain cream
colored poney belonging to his squaw, and pre-
sent from her father, Bawbish, chief of their
tribe, he would give him up his gun and clothing,
and let him have more strong drink from time tc
time until the price agreed upon was paid. To
this Nogisqua agreed, and privately gave up the
poney, which was sent off farther west
It appeared that his squaw, having some sus-
picion of what was going on, employed her
Younger brother to watch the result, and inform
her which, it appears, he did. Upon the return
of the Indian to his camp, partly intoxicated, his
souaw, highly enraged, accused him Of selling her
money! She became more and more enraged at
his indifference about the affair, and at length de-
clared she would kill him. He handed her his
scalping knife, and, drawing aside his hunting
shirt, and making his bosom bare, coolly exclaiu-
ed, " Kina poo r,-(kill away.) She instantly
plunged it to it's fande in the Indians breast,
which caused his death in few minutes. tas
Her father, the Indian chief being then absent
some twenty or thirty miles east, a runner was
despatched to inform him: Soon after, Mr,Fowie
says, he saw him pass by his house with 2 sad
countenance for the place of the murder. III, =
A heart-rendng duty now devolyed upon the
old chief His word was to acqut or condemn
the agonized daughter, according to Indian usage
from time i,nmemorial. Horror reigned in the
breast Of her father. His daughter was the hand
soonest squaw Of her tribe, and darling child !;
and the walls Of his relatives, together with his
own sympathies, rolled upon the mind OF the chief
like the rushngs of the mighty deep upon the
lonely rock in the sweeping STORM The crisis
in the chiefs mind was at hand. He must Judge.
No other tribunal was in the Indian code Of GRIM

Upon inquiry, it was decided that Jones,
brother Of Nogisqua, then south near Fort
Wayne, should execute the sentence. Accord
ingly, runner was sent for him, and he came
without delay. After hearing what was deemed
his duty, the cry of brothers blood from the
ground on which he stood, strung every nerve,
and gave tone to every muscle, for revenge.
There were white persons present al the eye
cution, who relate it as follows: The brother
proceeded 10 the fatal Indian Camp, and after
sharpening his scalping knife to his liking, and
performing several ceremonies customary with
their tribe since their acquaintance with the
Catholic missionaries, he took the victim by her
long, flowing hair, and led her to the front Of the
camp. Then with his scaiping knife he made
an ncision in her forehead III the form Of cross,
barred her bosom, and plunged the knife TO the
handle in her body. A shrek, rush OF blood,
and few dying groans and commissions followed,
and the fair form Of the handsome squaw lay
stiff in death. AstsNh@ N9l lEG9s sssA
From the time Of the murder until the execu-
ton, the female relatives Of the murderess never
left her tent, the time being spent in Iamenta-
tons over the young squaw. After the execu-
ton, both bodies were buried together in . sand
bank, where they now lie, side by side. The
Indians and squaws became reconcled, and al
seemed satisfied that no other atonement could
have been satisfactory. n 9 En- g.s5lisa X sss
Since the events related, the remnant Of the
tribe has been removed 10 the great west, to-
gether with their chief, whom the stTougest in-
ducements the world could present, could not
iostle out Of the path Of justice.
Thus persisted, says my informant, the best
Indian and the handsomest squaw Of their tribe
the victims Of the whiskey seller, who il far
wrong. NV informant also says that, from first
TO last, there was manifested no desire to escape
or evade the fate Of the unfortunate young squaw.
