Interview with Captain Jack and Others
A correspondent of New York paper
writes from the Indian country unde,
date of the 4th inst. He says Of Cap.
tain Jack and others.
had an interview with Captain Jack,
through the medium Of an interpreter
At first he was reticent. In fact, he did
not even notice me Finally his sister
the Princess Mary, prevailed upon him
to talk. His first remark was in relation
to his shackles. He said it made him
feel mean to be hobbled like u horse. =
He was not afraid to die, and had NO
idea of running away. As he spoke his
eyes snapped, and he looked very lion
in rage. Al! questions pertaining to bis
fighting he decliued to answer. When l
asked him his age he gave me to under
stand that he was Sc, and then he volun-
tarily started upon a statement OF his
Grievances and those of his people
With reference to the Ben. Wright affray
he said that the white men murdered his
people years ago, and that what he had
done was only in payment of old debts
He did not enter into details, but left the
interpreter. 'Scarfaced Charley to patch
up the story. A critical study of Jack s
face corroborates the impression derived
at first sight. He is thorough Indian.
His head is large, quite square, and sets
firmly on his shoulders His eyes are
black and bright and his face broad with
prominent cheek bones. His nose is
symmetrical and slightly aqu;line. His
lips are thin and clean cut, and, combin-
ed with his chin, indicate that resolute-
ness of purpose that has won him such
notoriety. His complexion is dark, and
his face has pleasant look. Take him
for all in all he is striking man. Place
him among thousands, and he would be
taken for a chief by any observing stran-
ger. Those who have seen him do not
wonder that he is the leader of the Mod
ocs Though in chains aud on the brink
of eternity, be is yet feared and respec-
ted by the Indians about him. His
nearest companions in arms, Schonchin
is about SO years of age, is wrinkled,
and has the villain depicted in every line
Of his face. He wears his hair short,
and stands about five feet in his mocca
sins. Boston Charley is about 25 years
old his face is expressionless. Jack
would attempt to escape if he hal
even at the risk of being shot
down. Probably he never realized that
his death was inevitable until the irons
we're placed on his feet. 'Scarfaced'
Charley Says Jack told him he could
get clear when the white men were as
eep. This was before the irons were
brought into use.
General Davis is satisfied that Jack
lid try to escape las; night, and through
he aid of confederates on the outside for
lpon examination of his ankles this
morning it was found that one Of the
-ivets had been filed nearly in two. His
egs only are confined. At four o'clock
