From the early settlement of North America, the Indians hare been the practice of taking captives of the hite people, sometimes having large number, and the Indians of this Agency have not been an exception to thia rule. Loafai Exp Soon after coming here, nearly four years since, I learned that there were some captives held by the Qua-ha-da (roving) band of Comanche*, which belonged to the Agency, but subsist ed upon what they could procure on the Staked I'lains. On two occasions since 1 have been here the Kiowa Indians have taken some captives in Texas. The first was in the ?th month of 18T0, when they killed a man by the name of G. Koozier. took his wife, five children, and the child of a neighbor. Tl tribe had been prettj" regularly draw ing rations for more than a vear but I at once ceased to ratiun any of them until tbe captives should be returned, which was done in about six weeks. 4» y ao a 4* a k a i# a 7 a it an 9 IS a a 50 40 9 .10 Kolon CKIAK RAPTi)8 41 a 40 6 I S 25 a WATKKLOO CEf»AR KA 1.141 8hell Hork 4 «s 4 29 a 4 40 4 91 a 45 40' 2 IV Clarkoville Oreene Marble Rock i lUn-kford 4 15 56 I a 15 .v 3 20 1 1 5 10 2 50 2 30 2 00 NORA .irNCTTOJf PLYMOPTH i LYLF 12 $4 12 11 1 9 20 mre AUSTIN lera Vfar ST. PAUL le i ao Day Tailor. Paul, thtft lin W. II 07 10 4ft' Last summer tiie same tribe, after killing a man and his wife in Texas, by the name of I.'M?, took three of eir children captives. Again their rations were suspended until tbe captives were delivered here, some two or three months after.— Tltey have become so accustomed to a dependence upon the Government for food that their women and chil dren soon become clamorous when their rations are withheld. Very different has been the case with the Quahadx band of Comanches, who have never depended upon gov eminent supplies, illegitimate Mexi can traders ufteu viaittus tiiein uui supplying them with blankets and other clothing, as well as arms, amu nition, &c., taking in exchange, hor ses, mules and cattle at' .len from Tex- Living remote, they formed ueucleus to which disaffected Indians would resort to form raiding parties, and then lay the depredations to| that band of Indians. The Indians have sometimes told me that this band intended to con tinue that business until the soldiers should go out to their camp, so thev could have a fight and see which was the stronger party experience, how ever, had often proven that thev were more expert at running than fighting. Their real opinion seeins to have been that it. would be impossible for the soldiers to overtake them. Col. McKinzey, however, did sur prise them last fall. He got within a few miles of their camp before he waa discovered, when nearly all the men and many of the women ran away, either on horseback or an foot, ai best they could, leaving more than a hundred women and children to be captured by the soldiers. This band was then ready to come to the Agen cy and make peace they were readv to promise good behavior in the fu ture if they could only recover their women and children but I told them they need not expect to see their women and children returned while 8tolcn ,rom Texas On the 24th of 10th Mo. last, they brought in two white captives, sta ting that these were all they had. I told them that I knew there were others there, which must be brought in. On the 14th of lllli Mo. two more white children were brought in. Two of the above four had been out so long that they had lost the power to speak the Knglish language knew not their names or where they hat! lived, except that it was in Texas.— They, however, remembered some [circumstances in connection with their capture, which was published, and led to their identification. One of them Droved to be Temple, a grand-son of L. S. Friend, a Methodist minister, who had for many years preached the Igospel in Texas. The loss of his grand child had not onlv cost him an untold amount of anxiety and pray |er, but he had traveled on that ac •ount nearly fifteen thousand miles ilnring the last five years in a fruit less endeavor to recover the long lost little pet. On one occasion he sennit [several months with me st the Agen |cy endeavoring to recover the child, ho, we were satisfied, was with the iQuahada Indians, but they were be yond my control. After his recovery he, with the 'ther captive-, was placed in the Agency School, and had attended it several weeks when the grandfather came from Kldorado, Kansas, to see if it really was his grand-child. Im agine, if possible, the feelings of the father and mother anxiously waiting at home—circumstances making it in expedient for them to come here—al so the grandfather's uncertain feelings in coming to identify the child after five years absence. On leaving, his little sister said, "Grandfather would know Temple by his large ears." On seeing him. the grandfather at once recognized some features of the child: and, putting his arms fondly around him, pressed him to his side and said kindlv, "Temple Friend," when the little fellow looked up as if inspired with a new thought, and replied ••Yesh" in his imperfect English. It wm the first time he had heard his name for five years he was about seven years old when captured. A happy day when the prayers of the good man were answered by the res* toration of the loved child. I had told the Indians that they had some Mexican captives which thev must also deliver to me. This thev regarded as unreasonable, as the Mex icaus were not whi te |Mx»ple,and theyl mented for him, to all wished to remain with them. I remain was aware that the latter idea was too near ihe fact, they having very many grown Mexicans amour them, some of whom are as bartarous and cruel as any of the Indians, ami but few of them would stay awav if sent off, so attached do they become to Indian life, and in some instances to the murderers of their own patents. 1 have frequently been told by in erpreters that after white or Mexican children had been with the Indians few months, thev could scarcely be induced to leave them, and have been given instances where the separation was only effected by force this, how ever, has not been my experience in the recovery of captives, which may hare teen partly owing to a differ ence in the management of the cases. I gave them a gxxl dinner to begin my acquaintance with them—their stomachs and heads are very near to gether then without resistance they submit to being washed, having their hair cut. and being cleanly dressed in such clothes as 1 could procure at once. If the suit waa too large or too small it still was a neater fit and made a much better appearance than their Indian costume and if it is pos sible for a child to feel half ashamed and half pleased with their attire, I think that was the feeling of some of those white children when thev* walk ed into the office before the Iudians, wearing citizen clothes But 1 am leaving the Mexicans with the Indians. How are they to be disposed of in the absence of any instructions from the Department? Before and since coming here, ar dent have been my desires to be fur nished with wisdom to rightly meet emergencies, and I believe it has been granted in the procur.ng of captives, as well as in inanv other cases, and thankful am I to Hiin who is the Givet of every good and perfect gift." 1 told the Indians that all the Mex icans who wished to must have the privilege of leaving. This they read ily assentt tl to. assuring me that there were none among them who wished to leave. This, however, was dis proved on the tit of the T-Jtli Mo. last, by Martha Day, a young Mexi can woman, who had been captured in the summer of 1872. The Indians had coine the day pre vious to the Agency and cam|ied near by. In the evening she told the In dians that she could not sleep, and had as soon herd the ponies, to which they assented, thinking that she had sufficiently imbibed the idea that they had tried to instil into their minds thai if any Mexican ran away from them to the white people, the latter would kill them. In the night she left the ponies, came to the Acency, anil spent some anxious miurs in tne portico waiting to hear some atir in the house—not venturing to maki any noise. In the morning she got into the house without being discov red by the Indians, and soon told her sad story. My wife procured the assistance of some other women, and. befo e night, had a respectable suit prepared for her. During the day she had been kept out of wight of the Indians, with the exception of one or two, whom I wished to see her. Sev eral times we observed young men with bows strung going around tbe building trying to loo* into the win (lows, apparently intending to kill her if possible. She told of three Mexican boys who wished to leave— one of thein captured at the time she was. I took their names, as well as the names of the Indians who held them. In the evening, after all the Iudians had left the office, the stage came, and she was started for her home, near San Antouio, Texas, in care of H. M. Smith, a gentleman who was going to the same place. It seemed providential that so good an opportunity should so quickly offer, to send her out of the reach of her foes. The following morning several of the Indians came into the office to have a "talk." They said that they had lost a Mexican woman, and wish ed to know if I could tell them any thing about her, to which they re ceived the reply that two nights be fore there had one come to my house, and told me that she had been cap tured by the Indians, and was tired of living with them that she had been dressed up, put on the stage the evening before, and started home she is now a long way lrom here, and it was useless for theui to look for her. They replied that they did not care much for her, but would like to have a few blankets to repair their loss. They were told that I was glad tlint she had left them, but was not buying women that they could have no blankets or other reward for her, or any other captive that she had re ported of others who wished to leave, and they must bring them in if they ever expected to see their own wom en and children returned. On urging the case over and over again, three Mexican captives were delivered about one month after. In the meantime I had learned of two )thers, one of whom was delivered a few days subsequently. These four were placed in the Indian School, where they remained about one month. The Iudians repeatedly told me that he otlier boy that I wanted was unwilling to leave them. I told them that he must come to the office and tell tne with his own tongue whether he wisiied to remain with them or not. On the 3rd of 2nd Mo. he was brought to the office, in company with a large number of young men and chiefs, attired with a good coat, one of the best fur caps of Indian manufacture, also a "hair pipe breast plate," which, by the young men, is the most coveted article of their cos tume, costing from thirty to seventy five dollars. He appeared to be alwiut seventeen years of age. On I seeing him my interpreter remarked: There is one who is a thorough In dian, and you will not get him." It urred to me that there was a "sell" in the case, and I sent iu haste for Mexican interpreter, about one and a halt miles distant. It wm near night and the Iudians were in agreat hurry to have me ask the test question, Inch made me act with the more caution. It was prohably the first time that the boy had erer been in a council, and to be act out in 11 e center of the office, surrounded by the olaaa of Indiana moat dreaded by him, and to be the principal spokes man, was rerr embarrassing to him. Anticipating the tai'k that the Indians had given him, I askt him about his parents, brothers, sisters and rela tions, and if he thought they had la which he answer ed that he suppoaed they were still cryiiiK for bim. About that time the Mexican Interpreter eame, and I went over the same ground again, dwelling upon bis home endearments. I then told him that there were many Indi ana here, but none of tliem «hniM hurt him he was in my house,and he should not be molested, say what he would that he need not be afraid of the Indians or of me or of anybody else if he wished to be a Comanche Indian, and live with them, say so, and I should not hurt him, nor ahould anyone clue, and if lie wished to go home to his father and motlier, broth era. sisters and relations, t»y ao, and I would at once send him there, and none of the Indians should harm him. Alter some hesitation ha said. Meyar m" (go), a word which I had heard hundreds ot times, but never before waa it accompanied with such a thrill of thankfulness to (rod for giving the mor.Al courage to the boy to come to and give expression to aucti a decision He at one* returned his coat and breast plate, and the Indians soon dis persed. He then informed me that the Indians had threatened to kill him if he told me that he wished to leave them. Notwithstanding the Indian* bad told ine that lie was the la*t cap tive they had, lie told uie ol others among them. The hoy waa waabed, dressed, bis hair trimmed, and started that even ing to overtake the four other captives who had started in eare of tlie Milita ry Department to Han Antonio to he returned to their people. The aiduous task of recovering cap tives waa to tie renewed. I told the Indians they need not think that I should relax in my eff irtw to procurr captives, NO long as I knew of their having any. They agreed to bring in two, which again was all they had. But when the day came, they brought but one—a little Mexican boy about ten yearn of age, captured four years previously. He was bright and talka tive, and had evidently been a pet of Para-o-coon, the head chief of the Quaha4a Indians, to whom he belong •d. I at once imagined that they had brought him in alone, thinking that he would prater to return with them than remain with strangers, whose language lie could not understand. I again sent for a Mexican int rpreter to head theui otrif possible. While he •ran coming I had the captive supplied with a good dinner, which he reli.ihed to the fullest extent, but iiad lin use for knife or fork in disposing of it. When through, I had the Mexican in terpreter talk to liiiu iu a room away from the Indiana, who euou became Uneasy. Ttiey, as well as I, hail point to make, which were opposite extremes—theirs to make an Indian ofl the tittle hoy, iniue to prevent it if[ possible. At length the child was brought in to the offlee, where, young as he wa», he was to make a decision, which iu ail probability would affect Ills des tiuy through life, if not through eternity. The Indiansco'itended that as he was captured in Mexico, and the Mexicans had not demanded him, that I had no juriadiction in the case. I told them that the Mexicans and Americans were friends and I should act the part of a friend iu returning captives to them if they wished to go. When they saw that dodge would not answer, one of the chiefs called the little boy to him, and said "Do you prefer to remain here with the A^ent or return with the Comanches?" He replied, "I would rather return with the Comanches!" This received the hearty applause of the Iiidiaus. I then told the boy that if he wished, 1 ould send hiiu to 'us former home, where be could lie with Ms brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts and cousins, sev eral of whom he remembered (his psreuts had been killed by the Iudi ans), and uow to tell me whether he would rather go there or rcturu with the Comaucbes. He said that he would rather go home to It it* relations. This aoswor started the tears from Paraocoon, who li.td become inueh attached 11 his little pet. liut the case was decided, and I sent the Mex iean interpreter witb tbe child out of the room aa I wanted no tuore "talk" 00 that case. By continued urging, two more Mexican captives about fifteen years of age were brought on the 25th of the «nd mo., one week after Prealiano the above mentioned boy was recovered, who had been retained at the agency, as the school Was uot iu session at that time, where he td become attached to us all, and was as merry and happy as a bird in spring. I had toid Pies liano that when tbe other two boys came I wanted him to talk with them and Induce them if poasibla to remain, which he did as soon as they came in to the offlee, and soon told me that one of them intended to remain and the other to return witli the Comanches. 1 told him that after they had eaten diuner I would aend them into a room with a Mexican interpreter ami lie must talk again. There he stood out ou tbe floor and plead like a lawyer, telling tlieiu how kiudly lie was treat ed Iteie, what an ample supply of good provisions he bad, a good house to shelter hin from the storms, a warm Are to sit by, how comfortably he slept upon tlie lloor rolled up iu blan kets, Ac. lie appears to be a natural •rater, fluently speaking in Spanish, which ia much used in the ludiati camps. Hi* fluent little speech, made with appropriate gestures, waa to the point and bad a telling effect. When brought into the offlee, to publicly anuounce their choice, they both pre ferred to return to their former homes, oue of which waa iu Mexico, the other in Texaa. I informed them (the Indians) of two othera in their camps who must be delivered to me. I waa informed that one of them waa ao reluctant to be brought in that he had run away to the Kiowa camps, but I told them that they must run ater him and briug him to the office that I might bear with my own ears, whether he prefer'ed to liva with them or not. At length they were both delivered NO. 3 4 to me, one (be 5th and the other o« the 7ih inst. They appeared to tw about twelve or thirteen years of ase, probably cou ,in«, and were together when captured in Mexico, some seven oreightyearssif.ee. They were both glad to e«ci»|ve from the abject slavery to which all captives are t-ubjectert with the Indians until thsy can re deem their litterty and establish a rep utation by murdering some while man, stealing some boraea, or aotnt ither villianous act. Up to this date I have succeeded in recovering, within the last six month seven white children and eleven Mex leans. I now know of no nthe^ among them who wish to leave, al though there may be several ol that class. The five last recovered are at tending the Agency School, bapp and contented. By my request, tin commanding officer of Ft. Sill is tt have them conveyed to Oen. Auger Commanderof the Department of Tex as, at Han Antonio, T»xas, where 1 hope the parents and friends of the children will meet them. Oen. Augei was here some time ago, and realiz the etlort required to recover the cap lives, and keep the Indians in subjec tion. He, as well as Maj. Schotteld, Commanding Officer of Ft. Sill, are more than willing to assist me in for warding the captives to their homes, and assisting otherwise when practi cable. In addition to the captives, I have recvered from the Kioawaa and Com auches during the same time, one hundred aud thirty two (132) boraea and mutea, which they stole last sum mer. Far as tbe Indians of this Agency are from what I would like to see them, I believe they were never in a more hopeful condition than at pres ent. They have realized the kindness and firmness of the Government, both of which they resjieet. Many of them now appear willing ami anxious engage iu agricultural pursuits, who would never enteitain such an idea before. An agent however will by no means be exempt from great care, re sponsibility and perplexity in the management of them. Believing that I have had my portion ot this,'I for warded my resignation to the Depart ment several months since, to take effect the 1st of 4th mo., 1873, at which time I hope to be relieved—my auc censor being Jamea E. Hsw rth of Olatha, Kansas. I believe ttie Indian generally regret ray leaving. They realize that had they taken my advice they would uot have been brought into their present difficulties. Till regret Is perhaps more deeply shared ami felt as il has been many times ex pressed by Texans and others who are best acquainted with my course here General Au^er, who at my request ha' returned a few of ihe Indian prisoners from Texas, aud I expect lias started more ou their return, in writing, uu «lt»r date of Feb. 7th 1873, uaea this language "I regret very much to hear that you are relieved from your agen cy while I fully understand that the place has no attractions for you, I can also see that the public service is to be loser by any change, however worthy your successor." Should all thimrs work favorably I ho|te to return with my wife to our home at Spriugdale about the middle of the 4th mo., after nearly four years service in a field of great responsibili ty, care, anxiety, and in some instan ces, of peril but with the feeling thai we have been recipients of the protect ing care of Israel's uusluiubering Hbepherd.
