We were once friends with the whites but you nudged us out of the way by your intrigues, and now when we are in council you keep nudging each other.
We want to take good tidings home to our people, that they may sleep in peace.
I once thought that I was the only man that persevered to be the friend of the white man, but since they have come and cleaned out our lodges, horses, and everything else, it is hard for to believe the white man any more.
