have tlirown away everything. There must be no more bad talk. I will not. I have spoken forever. I want soldiers all to go home. I have given up now, and want no more fuss. I have said yes, and thrown away my country. I want soldiers to go away, so I will not be afraid. When I go to Yainax I don't want to come back here, but want to go to town, and then to the new country. I wanted to go to a new country and not come back any more to see my people; that is why I wanted to go to Yainax. I want to see how many of my relations would go with me.

I am a chief; am proud; am ashamed to ride a poor horse. I understand their talk now. It seems now that I have been with them, and talked with them and seen them. I talk with my mouth. They have paper men to write down what I say. I want Fairchild to come tomorrow to see me. Mary has brought back good
