During this time he learned alf Of
the habits and customs of the Indians
and became master of IL different
Indian dialects which later stood him
in good stead as an interpreter for
the federal generals and for the chiefs
at washington. when they assembled
to make treaties with the Great White
Father.
About this time he found out that
he was not of their tribe and secret
ly left them, joining his parents in

In this service he came in contact
with Generals Custer, Miles and serv-
