be done was for the white chiefs at
Washington to agree on the price TO
be paid for the mineral land and for
a delegation of tribal chiefs to go to
Washington and put their marks on
the treaty paper.
A question or two from Hardy
brought out the angry complaint that
when Nogen began to dig stones he
told the chiefs there would be no
treaty, and that the tribe must dig
the stones for him, or they would re-
ceive no more issue goods. Chief Van
and plymouth (DuponD had tried to
get NOgen to give trade goods to the
young men and women who had dug
holes. But Nogen would not allow it.
Then bad Indian had shot Nogen,
and Van had shot the killer. The tribe
did not blame Chief Van. But they
had felt bad toward Nogen and they
had felt bad toward the new agent be-
cause they thought he would do as No
gen had done. Now they would like
the new agent. No Indian would wish
to kill him when it became known
what he intended to do for the tribe.
After the old chief finished this ex-
PLANTATION, Hardy found himself a well
come and honored guest in the camp.
At his suggestion Ti-owa-konza readily
agreed to send out runners in the
morning to call council at the mine
the day after. Hardy, in turn, prom
ised to draw up papers to make smooth
the way of the delegation of chiefs in
Washington.
AT sign from her grandfather, DIN
ma now brought food to the guest.
While he ate he talked with her about
her experience in the camp. She told
him joyously that her mothers father
