Abstract
"Into the valley of 'many waters,' which is 'Walla Walla' in the Indian tongue, came Isaac I. Stevens--he who was later to die gloriously at Chantilly--then the Governor of Washington Territory. Being thereunto accredited by the National government, his mission was to negotiate a treaty with those Indian tribes who had their habitat in that vast country which lies generally between the Cascades and the Bitter Root Mountains. The assignation had been appointed for June, 1855, where the purple crescent of the Blue Mountains enfolds the valley of the waters."
