The Boudinots, the Adairs and many
other noted Cherokee families have
taken high rank in the field of letters.
General Stanwatie, that fearless and
skillful commander of the southern
Cherokees, carved for himself place
among the great captains brought
forth by the civil war. Col. VIM. P.
Ross was perhaps the most polished
orator and altogether distinguished
forsenic gladiator who ever had the
honor of Cherokee parentage. Att
home among the able men Of his
tribe or at Washington amid the
talent and picked men of the Ameri-
can nation he stood well to the fore
and lost nothing by comparison. The
younger Elias Cornelius Boudinot was
also man of marvellous oratorical
ability, and for cutting sarcasm, pen

quence, was a man of whom any ma

To the sentimental mind there is a
touch of pathos in the spectacle Of a |
fading and dying nation, though it be
an obscure and faded tribe of Indians.
Down through the decades with
steady tread these people have moved
with the certain doom of National an
Inhalation before them. They, like
their fathers, could read their destiny
in the setting sun. With long drawn
sigh and steady vision they marched
toward the narrowing horizon, and
constantly fading glory of tribal life.
Their council fire on the side of the
has gone out long ago. The
bounding deer has disappeared from
their forests and the plaintive howl
of the wolf is family heard among
the hills. Their old men and women
are sleeping in their humble graves
under the oaks and elms while the
song birds break the stiffness with
their notes Of Joy.
