Brothers Nllntosh is dead. lie broke the
law ot the nation--the law which nc made
himself. His face was turned to the white
men, who wish to take OUR lands from u.s.
His back was to his own people; his ear was
shat to the cries Of our women and children,
his heart vas estrangcd from us. The words
of his talk were deceittu hc came to is
Ike tho sickly breeze, that flies over the
mars! Of the great River. The Great Spirit
t'iracl away his face from him. He fell bv
the hands Of Red men, at his own place, in
the sight Of his women aud chldrcn-the
false men who joined him, fell also with
him.


Brothers M'lntcsh was brave-the deeds
of his youth were mighty; but his heart be.
came changed; he spoke the words Of de-
cettulncse. lie walked in crooked paths.
which lis brethren knew not--paths which
led down to death. He deceived us, and VIC
Slew him. The land is red with his blood,
md with the blood OF his friends Our ven
geance is satisfied. We bury the hatchet of
revenge. Let us obey the Great Spirit, that
he may lead hischildren in the path Of their
wandering.
