"To gave the world assurance of a man:* _
'Tbere was a passage in the life of i this
chief which has been so prevented Ely ail
itinerant Indian story-monger, Ithat I 404
not refrain from giving it rightly. In ft
I deep carouse which took place one night.
in the village, in 1822, his brother, a fine
fellow, named Blue eyes; (that color be,-
ing very extraordinary in an Indian) had
the misfortune to bite off a piece of, 1.-e--
tan's nose. So soon as he became fully
sensible of this irreparable injury, to which
as an Indian he was psrhaps even more
sensible than a white win; I-e tan burner%
with a mortal resentment. He told hi*
brother that he would kill him; and re—
tired, got a rifle, and returned. Blue eyes
was found leaning with folded arms against;
a pillar of his lodge, and tilos, with a tie...
roic stoicism which has been rightly attri,
buted as a characteristic of the race; witir•
out a murmur, or a word, or the quiver of
a muscle, submitted to his cruel fate. I-e
-tan deliberately shot him through the
heart.
Then was Le-tan seized with a violent
remorse, and exhibited the redeeming traits
of repentence and inconsolable grief, and a .
greatness in the vety constancy of the ab
sorbing sentiment. tie retired from all in
tercourse with his race, abstained wholly
from drink, for which he had a propensity; •
as if under a vow, he went naked for near
two years; he meditated upon sui• ide, and
was probably only prevented by the infra
ence of a white friend; but he sought hon
orable death in desperate encounters with
all enemies he could find, end in this peri

1830, on the death of La Criniere, hie elder
brother, succeeded him as prineipal;ehief;'
I-e-tan married many of the finest girls of':
his own and the neighboting tribes but
never had children. Latterly,' otie of his
_
i wavering between love and revenge, a male
child was born with teeth. Vanity nor;
proved the strongest passion; he feigrAil
to believe it his son, and pronounced it a -
'special interposition of the Great Spirit. of
which this extraordinary sign was the
proof. I e-tan was the last chief whoeould
so far resist the ruinous influence orthe
in
creasing communication of his tribe with
the vilianous—the worse than barbarous
whites of the extreme frontier, as to keep
the young men and( r a tolerable r spetrel;,,
his death proved a signal for liienite and,
disorder:
'lntemperance was the great fault in 1-e
tan's character—the cause of his greatest,
misfortune and crime; it led to a inelese
death. The circumstances of this tragedy
'are worthy of record, if only that they dew
velope some strong traits of e h e eigtnej
character; they are as follo - .vs; In April;
1837, aceomppanied by errs two youngest
wives, at a trading-bootee near the mou th
of the Pestle, be inttilged in, one of his
moat violent fits of droakenness; and in
this condition, eat a dark and iocleasert
night, drove ;As wives out of doors; two'
men of his tribe who witnessed these eir
cutrustan-us took the utotast advantage of
them, and seduced the women to fly in
the'r company. One of these men had
formerly been dangerously stabbed by I,
e.-tan. Actuated by hatred—calculating
perhaps on the chief's declining power.,
and the strength of their connexion, ohich
was peat; the seducers becoming tired of
outlaying in hunting camps, &e., deter
mined to return to the , village and face it
out. Such cues of elopement are not very
unfreguent; but, after a much longer sb-,
genes, the parties become silently retort--
cited, if necessary, by the arrangement of
friends. But 1.-e tan said thatit was not only
a personal insult and injury. but an ciident.
defiance of his power; and that he would.,
live or die the chief of the Ottoes. flits
