Charlot's Farewell to the Bitter Root

The recent death Of Chief Chariot
the aged ruler of the F'lathead Indians
has occasioned the rec1unting of many
anecdotes, The most tragic incident
in his life. from the standpoint of the
white man. and possibly from Char
lots own. were MS refusal to go on the
warpath with Chief Joseph, his hins-
man of the Nez Perces. and his threat
to join with the white men If Joseph
permitted any depreiations in the Bit
ter Root valley: his refusal tn sign the
treaty with Garfield. later the presl-
dent Of the United States and Char
lot's removal from the Bitter Root VAL
ley to the Flathead Indian agency
The following extract is taken from
an address delivered by Rev NJ L.
Hickman on May -, 1905. and later
published in the North West tribune
of Stevensslle. Rev. Mr.. Wickman
was resident at the time of Charlot's
removal was an intir1ate friend Of

rington. who conducted The negotia-
tons with the chief. and was an in
terested witness of the proceedings:
