 Miss Arnold, who is a direct descend ant of Roger Williams, first saw the Indian chief several years ago when a band of Indians of Santa Clara ap- peared in Denver to give an exhibition of horsemanship. She says she was thrilled the moment she saw Chief Chayarria leap on his horse. She was so absorbed that she failed to see that the horses were closing In around her.
 Just about as she was to be run down she was lifted from the ground. Before she could see who had saved her life she was gently lowered to the ground while the horse was tearing along at full speed. It was Chief Cha varria who had rescued her, and thus the first chapter of the remarkable love story was opened.
 They became acquainted when the woman asked the chiefs permission to photograph him. The Indian did not understand English. so Miss Arnold studied Spanish that she might eorre spond with him.
