CHAPTER IX REMOVAL AND ITS TRIALS In 1866, it is. said in the government reports that the Delawares, still on their Kansas lands, in spite of depletion by army service and other causes of weakening and discouragement, "raised seventy-two thousand bushels of grain, thirteen thousand bushels of potatoes, and owned five thousand head of cattle." In July of this year a treaty was made for the sale of their lands, and providing for the removal to the Indian Territory of all who desired to go, it being also provided that any who were willing to become citizens of the United States and chose to remain should have lands set apart in severalty, and the assignment of their portion of funds belonging to the tribe. Only a few families chose to so remain. The superintendent of the agency at Ft. Leavenworth wrote about this time (July, 1866): "The running of the Union Pacific Railroad through the Delawares' diminished reserve has been a source of grievous annoyance and damage to the Delawares, as has also an organization styled the Delaware Lumber Company." This seems to have been a company formed to help themselves to the Delawares' timber and sell it to the railway company. The damage to the Delaware land by these two companies was estimated at "twenty-eight thousand dollars." In addition to these losses, it is added, "Other causes have conspired to render them in haste to be gone. The perpetual expectation of being obliged to remove bad unsettled the whole community, and made them indifferent to effort and improvement. The return of their young men from the war had also had a demoralizing effect," etc. Thus discouraged, depleted, and weakened, they turned their faces again to the new wilderness to be entered and subdued. During 1867 and 1868 the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Indian Chief, Journeycake The following brief narrative is sent forth, not as a contribution to the literature of the Indian problem, but as a tribute to the life and character of the Christian chieftain whose memory it seeks to perpetuate. When the author first entered the home of Mr. Journeycake to become acting pastor of the Delaware Church, and made a study of the situation, it was apparent at a glance that if he would do his people good he must stand in friendly relations with the senior pastor. By divine favor our intercourse at once, without any compromise of ministerial prerogative, became most intimate, fraternal, and confidential. Our views were largely akin, and we had a common purpose. Mr. Journeycake was a man of uncommon deliberateness, especially in conversation. You would ask him a question, and he would be so long before replying that you would be led to think he had given it no attention. This peculiarity was quickly learned, and also that it paid to wait. After a period of some months, the secretary of the American Baptist Home Mission Society sought to procure a biographical sketch of Father Journeycake for a special "Indian number" of the Home Mission Monthly.

Book The Delaware Indians

Download or read book The Delaware Indians written by Clinton Alfred Weslager and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 1972 with total page 572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "One of the best tribal histories . . . the product of decades of study by a layman archeologist-historian. With a rich blend of archeology, anthropology, Indian oral traditions (he gives us one of the best accounts of the Walum Olum, the fascinating hieroglyphics depicting the tribal origins of the Delaware), and documentary research, Weslager writes for the general reader as well as the scholar."--American Historical Review In the seventeenth century white explorers and settlers encountered a tribe of Indians calling themselves Lenni Lenape along the Delaware River and its tributaries in New Jersey, Delaware, eastern Pennsylvania, and southeastern New York. Today communities of their descendants, known as Delawares, are found in Oklahoma, Kansas, Wisconsin, and Ontario, and individuals of Delaware ancestry are mingled with the white populations in many other states. The Delaware Indians is the first comprehensive account of what happened to the main body of the Delaware Nation over the past three centuries. C. A. Weslager puts into perspective the important events in United States history in which the Delawares participated and he adds new information about the Delawares. He bridges the gap between history and ethnology by analyzing the reasons why the Delawares were repeatedly victimized by the white man.
