Another Holden Find.

The Inspector general for the army in this district was
in Fort Gibson the other day and gave his permission to
the removal Of the body Of the Cherokee wife OF General
Sam Houston from its present resting place at wilson
Rock to place the national cemetery at Fort Gibson
There was romance and mystery surrounding the mar
rage Of General Sam Houston to this Cherokee woman
About 1928 she with her tribe in Tennessee She was
accounted the most beautiful of the tribe She
was half Indian and half white. General Houston knew
her before she came with the Cheokees to Indian Terri
tory Shortly after he elected governor Of his state
he left his Office and the state seyerng his social ana
political relations and to the Cherokee nation
where he married Talihina Rogers He lived with her
many years His life wild and disspated but not
withstandng he had great influence among the Indians
and was respected and feared by them Later ne went
to Texas where he great renown as soldier His
Cherokee wife survived him several years. and when she
died was buried obscure spot the Arkansas river
near Fort Smith An effort was made by some Chero-
KEGS to have the body moved and placed in the national
cemetery This will be done at once. The exact loca
ton of her grave was for long time in doubt but about
year ago J. s. Holden. editor of the Fort Gibson Post
succeeded in identifying the grave at Wilson's Rock
There is a large cedar tree growing upon it,

ing about to faif Of nomination, was appointed to

expresses somewhat unexpected view OF Dickeson IN
these words:

Hochs brother-in-aw Dckerson kicked up row IN the
family, and took job that was given him to embarrass
Hoch Since then he has been district judge, and IS
now territorial Judge Of s5 600 year, all because he
kicked up family row, and willing to throw his
brothern-law down and elevate the machine In Kansas
in order to get a job for himself 1t is claimed that
Dickerson is good man; never saw him and never
heard Of him until he tried to beat his brothernaw out

man; but most people will gently but firmly ask to
be shown. Wichita Eagle

The Indian appropriation bill renders the case Of the

their claims the matter would have been easier of sou

the provision in the Indian appropriation bill referring
the case to the courts

to get the Delaware segregation out Of the way as speed

such may be appraised and become subject to allotment
