 These Alabama Indians have many relatives in the Indian Territory and they are constantly exchanging visits. A few of the Alabama Indians have in- terest in the law suits which are pend ing to recover from the United States money which is claimed for the slaves of the Indians.
 The visitor through the Indian coun- try Is impressed with the fact that he finds no Indian at the head of any notable business enterprise or in con- trol of any large planting or farming industry. The resourcefulness, the pertinacitg of the white man, his love of meeting, grapplIng and overcoming obstacles are not the characteristics of the red men.

ease and not to battle. The Indian soI- diers were peculiarly susceptible to measles and other camp diseases. A few of them, however, returned and re- sumed their life of hunting and farm ing in South Alabama. Two promi- nent veterans at the recent Mobile re- union were William Shomo and Charles Weatherford, noticeable among the other old soldiers by reason of their swarthy skin, black hair and thip boards.
 The Indian government was not a democratic government It Is only the white man who believes in the equal ity of man and the equality of oppor- tunity. Under the old tribal laws and customs different families had differ ent privileges and some families were entitled to greater consideration than others,
 This feeling of aristocacy is notice- able to this day among the descendants of Weatherford. They hold themselves higher than their Indian neighbors across Little River. They hold that their descent from the leaders and the fact that they owned negro slaves be- fore the war entities them to greater consideration than those of Indian de- scent who have not those rights for family pride.
 William Weatherford and several of his kin were the owners of good farms and of negro slaves. They did not. however, devote themselves so thor oughly to the details of planting as did the white man. They preferred in many instances to rent their slaves out to their white neighbors and give themselves more to the excellent hunt ing about Little River. William Weatherford died in 1928 from exhaus- tion brought on by protracted bear hunt
 The close of the war between the States, with the destruction of their wealth in slaves. left Weatherford' s descendants impoverished, but they have struggled on and most of them own a small farm and a comfortable home. as homes go in the remoter dis tricts of the State.

 William Colbert. who died at an ex- treme age several years ago, was the last of the hostile aborigines. He wore the aboriginal dress. of beaded leg gings. hunting shirt and red bandanna handkerchief He spoke his native tongue and when in liquor it was his custom to boast of the men, women and children he had scalped in the In dian wars.
 A member of Colberts family was killed several years ago by John Ro- land. another Indian. Roland. after serving five years in the penitentiary. was pardoned by the Governor of Ala bama a few months ago.

position on a bank of the Tallapoosa River a few miles above the present town of Tallassee. The fighting was sanguinary. The entrenchments were taken with great loss and the Indians were routed with great slaughter.
 Major Lemuel P. Montgomery, for whom the city of Montgomery was named, Is said to have been the first man to mount the Indian entrench- ments, only to fall by a rife ball. The young man was 8 brilliant attorney of Tennessee, greatly beloved by Jackson, who, when told of his death. said:
 T have lost the flower of my army"
 The belligerent spirit of the Indians was broken and cowed by the awful disaster at Horseshoe Bend. Out of the 1000 men they had in the fight. 557 were killed. Jackson lost thirty-two men killed and thirty-six men wound ed. The remaining braves with their women and children were scattered through the swamps and forests,
 Weatherford was an outlaw with price upon his head.
 Some days later he made a dramatic entrance into Jacksons camp, an ent% rance which has been described in poetry and history. He rode the horse that had carried him through the va rious battles. Across his saddle was a deer which he had killed on his way to camp and which he was to present to General Jacksoon.
 As Weatherford rode into camp Big Warrior, one of the Indian chiefs who had fought with the white people, re- cognized him. He ran towards him. exclaiming;
 "Aah. Billy weatherford; we've got you at last!'
 Weatherford replied. with fine scorn:
 You traitor. if you give me any of your insolence, I will put a ball through your traitorous heart
 Attracted by the disturbance, Jack son came to the door of his tent.
 The defeated leader is said to have thus addressed him:
 Red EaEIe's Address to Jackson.
 General Jackson. am Weatherford. brave man knows a brave man heart. I do not come to you to ask for mercy for myself but to ask for mercy for our women and our children who are starving in the swamps. l fought you as long as could fight you, and would continue to fight you if had ten braves with me. but my warriors are scattered and gone, and can oppose you no longer. I ask that you send parties out, find my starving people, bring them in and feed them. ana you can do what you will with me-
 Old Hickory is reported to have said "A man who would shoot down as brave a man as that would rob the dead. "
 Relief parties were sent out and the starving Indians were brought into camp.
 Jackson had no wish to punish weatherford or to see him killed. Ills protection gave Jackson great concern In bIs army were men who had lost reIsti,,ag Tn the massacre at Fort Mims They were impuIsive frontiersmen who wouId moi hesitate to shoot down the man who led the assault on the fort.

Mobile, Nov. 7s.-(staR Correspond snce .)-The victorious Creeks, who triumphed at Burnt Corn and Fort Mims, were destined to learn that truth which history of all times records. No inferior race ever successfully waged war with the Anglo-Saxon.
 They were destined to learn that the white mans will might be thwarted for a time, but that no black man. red man or yellow man could stand be- tween the Anglo-Saxon and the goal of his ambitions. In suffering and death they were to learn that the white mans bulldog tenacity, his indomit- able will, would triumph and trample upon every attempted interference.
 The Creeks who tasted the sweets of victory at Fort Mims, and went drunk with victory were to become hunted and starved outcasts in the swamps of the Coosa, the Tallapoosa and the Ala bama. Horse Shoe Bend was but few months behind Fort Mims and Burnt Corn was to be avenged in the meanwhile at Talladega and Echaana- ta The streams of their native land were to run red with the blood of the Creeks and their women and children were to live as beasts of the field and forest.
 The bloody handed victors at Fort Mims rocked little of this. however, as they travelled to Pensacola and there received the pay for scalps they had taken. On their return Weatherford collected his followers at Echaanata, an Indian town on the Alabama river a few miles below Montgomery. The site of the village which the Indians called Holy Ground, Is now in Lowndes County.
