forty miles apart. From Chi-chi-

tons OF religion to the Chief
POkagon, who lived at a distance
of sixty miles Tin Michigan west
OF the st. Joseph river and north
OF South Bend.) You NAV think

accept it as a continual prayer ;
it is for those who know how to
offer it, a continual sacrifice"
About this time the govern
ment sent officers to arrange for
the departure OF the Indians.
Father Petit again writes:
"One morning | said mass and
| Immediately afterward began

ment OF my departure 7 assembl-
ed all my children to speak to

their new hunting grounds. We

dence in Thee"

sobs and but few voices were
able to finish it. | then left them.
Oh, it was indeed sad for mis-
sionary to see a work SO young
and vigorous expire in his arms.
Some days afterward | learned
that the Indians. not withstand
ing their peaceable dispositions,
had been surprised and made
prisoners OF war under pretence
OF council. The government
sent at the same time to invite
me TO accompany them to their
new destination. 1t seems that
their separation from their pastor
was one of the motives which
prevented the Indians from con-
senting to go quietly to their ex-
lie. | replied that | could take
steps without permission of my
Bishop The order was given
to march without further delay.
The Indians were driven on at
the point of the bayonet; many
,were sick, huddled together in
transport wagons; numbers died
of heat and thirst.
Father Petitsobtained permits
sion from his Bishop to accom-
pany the carivan. He joined it
near Danville Illinois. and ac-
companied it to its destination on
the Usage river in the new state
OF Kansas. On his return at St.
Louis, Father Petit was taken
sick with malarial fever and ia
tigue from which he died. His
remains were removed to Notre
Dame where they lie buried in
the Catholic cemetery at that
place.

What Became of Me-no-mi-nee.

What Became of Me-no-mi-nee?
1t may be query in the minds
of many what became of The
good preacher, Me-no-mi-nee ?
The % sections of land coded to
him and Pe-pin-a-wa Na-ta-ka,
and Mack-a-taw-mo-ah, were
never transferred to the govern
ment by Me-no-mi-nee, and were
he living whatever interest he
then had would still be his. The
other chiefs who shared with
him in the ownership, received
S14,0S0 for their interest, but Me-
nominee refused to sign the
treaty, and never transferred his
interest either by treaty or sale
to the government or others. He
was placed under military sur
VIGILANCE at the time of the re-
moval from Twin Lakes in 1888
and guarded by soldiers on the
thousand miles march TO the wes-
tern reservation on the Usage
river in the then territory OF Kan
sas. He was at that time a man
we'll along in years, and it is
more than likely, as he was never
heard of afterwards that he died
of broken heart.
As to the other chiefs associat-
ed with him in the ownership OF
the lands, the white traders
cheated them out of the money
received for their share before
they were removed, and in the
mixing up OF the various bands
in the caravan, they lost their
identity and disappeared, but
Whittier they went or how
they Jared
Nobody know and nobody
cared.
In view OF all the facts as re-
vealed by a careful investigation
the conviction forces itself upon
me that Me-no-mi-nee and his
band were cruelty treated and
badly misused. Governor Wal
lace had as much right to order
the recruiting OF company OF
soldiers to go to Twin Lakes and
drive away the white settler who
were interfering with Menomi-
nee and his followers as he had
to arrest Menominee End drive
him at the point of the bayonet
from his home he had not surren-
dered. If he had cede,. his lands
by signing the treaty to the gov
eminent agreeing to remove TO
the western reservation the case
would have been different. He
had as good right to remain OIL
his lands at Twin Lakes as had
Joseph Walters and his white
following, who seem to have
been the real cause OF the dis
trrbance. AS it seems to me the
whole affair was cruel and lnliu-
man, and partook more OF savag-
cry than the act of civilized ana
enlightened people. The Indians
were surrounded by the soldiers
before they were aware that
force was to be used in driving
them away. They were disarm-
ed of guns, tomahawks, and bows
and arrows, the wigwalns and
cabins were torn down and de-
stroyed, and the old and deere
pid, the lame, the halt and TIE
blind, and the women and chill
dren were marched off by the
soldiers like so many cattle to the
slaughter. And when the record
shows that the graves OF 100 OF
the poor helpless beings mark
the pathway of the solemn pro-
cession, / cannot resist the con-
clusion that a cruel wrong was
done which time cannot condone,
and which cannot be forgiven
here or hereafter.
