evinced great fondness for the COM
pany of the Indians, who still fingered
in considerable numbers throughout
Peoria county.
Almost as soon as he could speak Eng
lish he had mastered the Indian tongue.
Before he had reached his majority he
followed the Indians to Black River
Falls, whittier they had moved some
years before, and made himself one of
the tribe. They soon looked up to him,
despite his youth, as medicine man of
rare cunning. In token of their respect
they made him their agent. Thus for
years Mr.. Roddy lived with the Winnie
bagos, and year by year his influence
in their councils increased, till he was
second only to Black Hawk in power.
Two years ago the Indians saw that
their old chief soon would be incapable
of managing the affairs of the tribe,
and then it was decided that his sue
cessor should be their white man
friend. But the formal election was de-
layed until Black Hawk had pitched his
tepee in the happy hunting grounds.
''My husband is now in Detroit" said
Mrs. Roddy, land from there will go to
st. Louis in the interest of the Winnie
bagos. From the latter town he will go
direct to Black River Falls to assume
the duties of chief. and my four chill
lren will follow him to Wisconsin in
few weeks. We have known the Indi-
ans for number of years, and I, for
one, can say that they make excellent
neighbors. They are Industrious and
sober and have the greatest respect for
my husband.
"Our life for the future may seem
strange to one who does not know the
Winnebagos, but expect it to be a
happy one, and my children are wild
with delight at the idea of once more
seeing their friends in the tribe"
The federal government each year
pays the Winnebagos nearly $4,000. OF
this the ruling chief gets percentage
which enables him to live comfortably.
It is expected that Mr.. Roddy will re-
turn to Chicago to conclude his re-
searches into the claims of the Indians
to the old Fort Dearborn site before he
formally takes up his residence at Black
River Falls.
