Prison experience, continued.--An epitome of my life, case and trouble to "the Governor and the people."--The only argument and summing up of my case that was ever made.--The frank but fruitless wail for justice and humanity by a victim shanghaied, ravaged, and languishing in prison.--" Let thy keen glance his life search through, and bring his actions in review, for actions speak the man."--" While love and peace and social joy were there. Oh, peace! oh, social joy! Oh, heavenborn love! Were these your haunts where murderous demons rove? Distinction neat and nice, which lie between the poison'd chalice and the stab unseen." "seatco Prison, Washington Territory, April 20th, 1882. To his Excellency, Governor [Links], and to my countrymen at large --especially in my own section: -- As to "my case not being fully or formally made out or presented" at this stage, please consider that neither I nor my friends are lawyers, but that we have feelings, and thought we had sense and character enough to make so simple a case as mine manifest to any one disposed to "embrace the truth wherever found." And that this is all that would be necessary at this stage. And now my duress has been so prolonged, that I am destitute of means necessary to employ experts to make out a formal cose and plea--as at a contested, technical trial From comfortable circumstances--a competency--I have been reduced to want and distress--sore and cruel. But your Excellency, in a homely, awkward way, we thought it had been shown and is maintained by evidence given before, and by and witfi other facts proclaimed and questioned: First.--That I was always truthfully, peacefully, charitably and frankly disposed, to a fault, and temperate in all things;...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Struggles for Life and Home in the North-West I do not claim for this book any literary merit, except that borrowed or quoted from others, for, when Cushing could mark 5000 mistakes in Webster's Unabridged Dictionary (saying that for the size of the book it had as few errors as could be expected), and when newspaper and other writers have to browse so largely from the genius and labor of others, that editorials are frequently copied bodily as their own (so that it is often difficult to know who produced some piece of intellectual work and the gems of genius that they print), it would therefore be presumptuous for an unlettered homebuilder on the border, alone to attempt anything very fine and glittering in building his book; and though the most practical, valuable and expensive education in the world is that gotten by struggling hard and long against fiends and fate, for life, liberty and home, such a life permits of no leisure or condition of the mind for the culture of any of its latent literary genius. While the mere kid-gloved hired critic will smile over the stacks of humbug effusions of his professional brethren, he will sneer at this ill-favored thing; and ring-black-legs will detest it, as they do truth itself and equality before the law. But when my case was so cruelly lied about and I was so persistently and corruptly held in a secret bastile to be tortured, looted and maligned, (as I found it to be the case with others also), and was always denied any hearing, or defense, or trial, I was left no alternative by the mongrel gang, but was forced to write my life, and theirs also -wherein it imperils the life, liberty and homes of the people.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association Regional Award Chief Moses (Sulktalthscosum or Half-Sun) was chief of the Columbias, a Salish-speaking people of the mid Columbia River area in what is now the state of Washington. This award-winning biography by Robert Ruby and John Brown situates Moses in the opening of the Northwest and subsequent Indian-white relations, between 1850 and 1898. Early in life Moses had won a name for himself battling whites, but with the maturity and responsibilities of chieftainship, he became a diplomat and held his united tribe at peace in spite of growing white encroachment. He resisted the call to arms of his friend Chief Joseph of the Nez Percés, whose heroic campaign ended in defeat and exile to Indian Territory. Their friendship persisted, however, and after Joseph's return to the Northwest, the two lived out their lives on the reservation, sharing their frustrations and uniting their voices in complaint.

Download or read book William Wells and the Struggle for the Old Northwest written by William Heath and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2015-03-11 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born to Anglo-American parents on the Appalachian frontier, captured by the Miami Indians at the age of thirteen, and adopted into the tribe, William Wells (1770–1812) moved between two cultures all his life but was comfortable in neither. Vilified by some historians for his divided loyalties, he remains relatively unknown even though he is worthy of comparison with such famous frontiersmen as Daniel Boone and Davy Crockett. William Heath’s thoroughly researched book is the first biography of this man-in-the-middle. A servant of empire with deep sympathies for the people his country sought to dispossess, Wells married Chief Little Turtle’s daughter and distinguished himself as a Miami warrior, as an American spy, and as an Indian agent whose multilingual skills made him a valuable interpreter. Heath examines pioneer life in the Ohio Valley from both white and Indian perspectives, yielding rich insights into Wells’s career as well as broader events on the post-revolutionary American frontier, where Anglo-Americans pushing westward competed with the Indian nations of the Old Northwest for control of territory. Wells’s unusual career, Heath emphasizes, earned him a great deal of ill will. Because he warned the U.S. government against Tecumseh’s confederacy and the Tenskwatawa’s “religiously mad” followers, he was hated by those who supported the Shawnee leaders. Because he came to question treaties he had helped bring about, and cautioned the Indians about their harmful effects, he was distrusted by Americans. Wells is a complicated hero, and his conflicted position reflects the decline of coexistence and cooperation between two cultures.
