Abstract

"Old ancestor, at first gathering of Indians held on the place, told and predicted of future...passing of Indian. 'He walked around or danced around twice, then took out white and put on ground. Explained that grass would disappear...tall then, now short, Indian would go the same way. Forecast eventually all Indians would pass, meaning pure Indians. He took two rocks, clasped them under his arms, said now look and pulled them out and there was a looking glass. You looked in it and saw just bones, like a skull...you saw the future."
