In the accounts Of the Indian diff

not feel at liberty to let it pass without
a word Of comment. II is stated that
after the killing Of the Indians by the

carried into the wkite settlements and
" exhibited to all persons having the

this is absolutely shocking. and in the |

We protest against 60 barborous pro
