Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Indiana Trails and Surveys Indian road at what is now Gosport and one between Cataract and Santa Fe. Ten miles east of Bloomington he crossed an Indian trail running north and south.5 South of White river, near Brownstown, he recorded another Indian road, going east and west; west perhaps to the old Delaware camp at the forks of White river. There was an army crossing at the mouth of Raccoon creek 7 the trail crossed the Wabash there and followed up the right hand or west bank of the river. This fact made the mouth Of Raccoon creek prominent enough to be a beginning point of the Harrison Purchase, s in 1809. On this ten O'clock line there was an Indian trail between what is now Dana and Hillsdale.9 Since the line ran in a southeasterly direction, the traces must have crossed it nearly at right angles, or the surveyor would not have recorded them. Probably all led toward Ft. Wayne and Vincennes.10 The survey of this line was not pleasing to Tecumseh, and he so intimated to the United States government, August 10, 1810, at Vincennes.11 He was very angry at the chiefs who touched the quill, as the Indians called signing a treaty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Winning the Wilderness The last Indian trail had disappeared. The hoofprints of cavalry horses had faded away. The price had been paid for the prairie - the costly measure of death and dar ing. But the prairie itself, in its loneliness and loveliness, was still unsubdued. Through the fury of the winter's blizzard, the glory of the springtime, the brown wastes of burning midsummer, the long autumn, with its soft sweet air, its opal skies, and the land a dream of splendor which the far mirage reflects and the wide horizon frames in a curtain of exquisite amethyst - through none of these was the prairie subdued. Only to the coming of that king whose scepter is the hoe, did soul of the soil awake to life and promise. To him the wilderness gave up every thing except its beauty and the sweep of the freedom breathing winds that still inspire it.

This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wooing of Tokala an Intimate Tale of the Wild Life of the American Indian Drawn From Camp and Trail At an Oglala buffalo village the figure of chief interest, passing the teepee doors, was not that of Red Cloud nor of Yellow-Iron, but that of Koska, the Brule dancer. This young man lived at the Missouri River, where his father was wealthy, owning many horses which he had stolen from the Scili or Pawnees. Koska was able to dance the muscle dance, and as he danced he shook a bull rattle and jingled the bells upon his ankles so that people said he made very fine music indeed. Koska's voice was wonderful, a great mystery gift. When he shouted at the pony races or in the ball games it was as if Wakinyan, the Thunder God, were speaking. At times when this young man was talking his words were very mysterious; for it appeared that some one spoke in the air above his head or from the ground at his feet. No one could tell where his words came from. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Crow Wing Trail Another reason may be found in the fact that over it I made my first prairie journey, that from one of its encamp ments 1 saw the last herd of buffalo ever seen east of the Red River, and that though I am about to describe it as seen by me in a peaceful journey late in the fall of 1860, I was to traverse it again when comparatively disused during the year of the Sioux massacre in Minnesota, as the only hope of reaching Fort Garry from St. Paul, where I then was, when a camp fire was out of the question, each river-ford and bluffof timber to be avoided, and a stealthy Indian tread to he fancied in the rustle of every leaf.

Download or read book Chicago s Highways Old and New written by Milo Milton Quaife and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-22 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chicago's Highways, Old and New: From Indian Trail to Motor Road The period from the incorporation of Chicago to the coming of the railroads (from I837 to 18 as I view it, was the critical period of Chicago's history. Citizens Of the Village of about people, surrounded by miles of flat, marshy land, had little basis to expect a big town here except the hope of a connection with the Mississippi River waterway system through a canal, which it was hoped sometime, somehow, might be built and which, eleven years afterwards, was, after various vicissitudes, completed. In the meantime, the town grew steadily. Its exports Of raw material and imports of manufactured goods, as shown by the meagre port records of the time, increased pretty steadily and were, at all times, greater in amount than necessary for the support of the little town, indicating that, in spite Of poor roads and bad transportation, its people were doing business with the hinterland and making Chicago, in that early day, the central market for surrounding territory. Dr. Quaife has happily selected this period for his book, and in admirable fashion has pictured the life, the travelers, and transportation methods before the coming Of the canal and the railroads; he describes an eventful period which has hereto fore had but little consideration, and has succeeded in linking the old with the new in a most interesting way.

Download or read book New Colorado and the Santa Fe Trail Classic Reprint written by A. A. Hayes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Colorado and the Santa Fe Trail It would have been proper to say more about the burning Indian question but a suitable disquisition thereon would have not only outrun the limits of the book, but cast a sombre tinge over it. It is a wonder that people who profess to regulate their individual lives on the principle of there being a certain and inexorable retribution for wickedness, will not comprehend that they share the responsibility of their country for its shameful, infamous wrong-doing in this regard. Much can be said in j ustification of the residents of the West in their hatred of the Indian, and the evil lies far back of them. The United States are clearly convicted of the acts of cruelty, perfidy, and dishonour which have had their logical sequence in the smoke and flame of burning houses, and the shrieks of murdered women and children, which have gone up, year after year, on the frontier. Individuals who are guilty of such crimes are warned to expect a judgment on them. If ever an aggregation of individuals.
