I Am Not A Child,

We Gathered All The Stock We Could Find, And Made An Attempt To Move. We Left Many Of Our Horses And Cattle In Wallowa. We Lost Several Hundred In Crossing The River.

My Father Was The First To See Through The Schemes Of The White Man.

I Have Asked Some Of The Great White Chiefs Where They Get Their Authority To Say To The Indian That He Shall Stay In One Place, While He Sees White Men Going Where They Please. They Cannot Tell Me.

We Were Like Deer. They Were Like Grizzly Bear.

We Are Going By You Without Fighting If You Will Let Us, But We Are Going By You Anyhow!
