his white neigh bors. He was not
playing a treacherous part, for at
that time there was no conspiracy
or plot afoot
But for some time Little Grow
had been in bad odor with his tribe.
Some Of the chiefs and head men
were jealous of his popularity and
influence with the whites. A great
majority of the other members did
not like him because OF his promi-
nent connection with the session of
the ten-mile strip north of the MIN
uesota. The selling of this valu-
able body of land, half of their res
ervation, by some of the chiefs aud
head men in charge of Maj. Joseph
R. Brown, then their agent a Wash
ington, in 1883, was never approved
by the tribe as a whole, as was the
treaty of Mendoza in 1851. Those
" nv udu uI1tO W dCt lux lue u
dians in this matter were greatly
disliked.
In the summer OF 1862 an election
was held for principal speaker" of
the Medawakanton band. Little
Grow, Big Eagle aud Travelling
Hail were the candidates. The po-
sition was one of honor, merely.
but there was a strenuous contest.
Little Grow aud Big Eagle had
been connected with the ten mile
strip affair and Travelling Hail was
elected by a large majority over
both.
The night after his attendance at
the Christian church Little Grow
was sleeping TRANQUILITY in his own
house. At midnight delegation
from Shakopee Camp. headed by
Shakopee himself, burst in upon
him with the startling news tina,
The Redwood gazette., 1902-11-12
LITTLE CROWS HISTORY.
AS Recorded in Mr.. Gilfillan'S Story of
the Massacre.

Little Grow had unusual oppor-
tunities for studying the whites and
their policy. He was one of the
chiefs that signed the treaty Of
Mendoza in 1851. and one of the
most influential of those who went
to Washington and ceded the ten
mile strip. Besides. he was often
consulted. negotiated with. and
called into council by his white
brethren until be came to know
them intimately. In his intercourse
he was uniformly courteous and po-
i e, never sui en- and repallant.
1t may be in place here to pre-
sent some evidence that neither
Little Grow S head nor his heart
approved the outbreak Of 1862. His
judgment was against any armed or
violent collision with the whites at
all. When, in the summer Of 1862
there we're mutteringS Of discomfort
among the lower agency Sioux and a
''soldiers LODGE was IN existence,
be contin uouslv and strenuously y
counseled peace. No Indian has
been found to say that Little Grow
ever counseled an uprising. He
seemed fully to realize that his in
terests and those of his tribe de-
manded perpetual friendship with
the race that had acquired control
and dominion over the country.
Just prior to the outbreak he
was especially friendly. He was
living in a house built and furnished
for him by the whites and the con-
tract for his brick mansion had
been let. Maj. Galbraith, the In
