“Contrast the
condition into which all
these friendly Indians are
suddenly plunged now, with
their condition only two years
previous: martial law now in
force on all their reservations;
themselves in danger of
starvation, and constantly
exposed to the influence of
emissaries from their
friends and relations, urging
them to join in fighting this
treacherous government that
had kept faith with nobody--neither
with friend nor with
foe.”1
1Helen Hunt Jackson, A Century of Dishonor: A Sketch of the United States Government’s Dealings with Some of the Indian Tribes (New York: Harper & Bros., 1881):178
Only two
years later, all friendly
Sioux were suddenly plunged
into new conditions, including
starvation, martial law on all
their reservations, and
constant urging by their friends
and relations to join in warfare
against a treacherous government
that had kept faith with
neither friend nor foe.
