INDIAN TO BE HONORED.
Chief ShabbOna, Noted POttawat0-
ME, to Have Monument.

MORRIS, Ill. Nov. 10.-In honor OF thef
memory of Shabbona, chief OF the Potta-
watomies and friend of the white pioneers
Of the Illinois river valley, 1t is proposed to
erect monument In Evergreen Cemetery
at this place. Shabbona was well known
through the Territory of Indiana in his
youth He was the son of an ottawa chief.
and was born near the Maumee river, In
Ohio, about 1775 He married a Pottawato-
mie girl and became closely identified with
that tribe. He became identified with Te-
cumseh in 1907. In the battle of the Thames
Shabbona was second in command to Te-
cumseh. After the war of 1912 Shabbona
moved from the wabash to the Illinois and
located his village near where Ottawa, ILL.,.
now stands. He sought to lead his people
into ideas of peace toward the white set
tiers. His first prominent part as peace
maker was in 1877, when he journeyed
northward to use his influence for peace
with Big Foot.
liz September, 1897 rumors OF bad hearts
among the Indians reached the settlers
along the Rock and Illinois rivers, and In
the interests Of peace Shabbona set out for
Lake Geneva, Wis, to dissuade Big Foot
from making war. In 1892 Black Hawk
sought an alliance with Shabbona and urged
that together they could drive the white
v
restrained the PottawatOmies, but leaving
the council fire in Black Hawks camp, he
sent his son Papys to the westward along
Bureau creek while he rode east, warning
the settlers as he went to arm themselves
and watch for depredations from Black
Hawks band. All settlers along the Du-
page, Illinois and Kankakee rivers were
warned by Shabbona, who rode increasingly
until his war pony fell dead beneath him.
Stripping his favorite horse Of saddle and
bride. Shabbona, with these on his back.
ran to the next settlers cabin, located
where Hollenbeck's grove now is, in Ken
dali county, and after delivering his mes
sage of warning he borrowed horse from
Henry Hollenbeck with which to continue
his errand Of mercy.
-Four years later the Pottawatomies were
moved to their reservation on the upper
Missouri at Council Bluffs, but their chief
did not go. His family moved from Ottawa
to Shabbona Grove, De Kalb county Then
came years Of privation and suffering. The
old chief wandered about without a homa
and frequently without enough to eat.
Finally L. p. Sanger father of Mrs. George
NJ Pullman, raised $500 with which to buy
a little home near Morris for the old chief.
Then he could not be found. search was
begun. From house to house and village to
village along the Illinois valley the old man
was traced, until he was found at the
graves of his twin boys in la Sale county.
Broken in health and reason, he was taken
away by friends to live in the home near
Morris. He died in 1859 and is buried IN
Evergreen Cemetery Morris, ILL.,
