ing him that he had seen his lost daughter,
who. the Canadians told him, was in chains
only short time before, and that she was
we'll and happy. He expressed desire to
talk after he had rested and eaten. The
cavalcade, as it filed to the garrison, attracted
much attention. 1t consisted Of six army
wagons, loaded with squaws and children,
followed by twenty-five or thirty OF
Louis Legare's Red river carts, well
filed with baggage. Sitting Bull himself
and his chiefs and head men rode their
ponies, and did not dismount and shake
hands until they arrived at the place fixed
upon for their camp. Bull has seemed more
sullen and insolent than any Of the chiefs he
has under his management. The Govern
ment has accepted this surrender in good
faith. A dispatch was forwarded to Stand
ing Rock informing Growing and Low Dog
of Sitting Bulls arrival, and it was believed
that this news will remove any desire the
