tleman who had been talking to him,
remarked, well, the Indians are much
better fed since they have surrendered
than they were when running at large,
the old chief looked at him for a min
ute and replied:
you are far from being correct.
The Indian never was so well fed as
when he was as the good God intend

man the Indian garnished his table
with pumpkins, corn, beans and wa
termelon, all Of which were raised By
his patient squaw. Milkweed took thu
