With that terrible "grapo vine

Judge McCulloch, of this place,
relates 90 us that he first saw Ka.
los.i-tah in the year 1916, ut the
treaty ofSt. Mary's. Tho Govern
ors Of Ohio, Indiana and Michigan
met the remnants of the Western
Tribes on this occasion, to treat
with them upon matters OF mutual
