More words from Chief Joesph

First, thank you our Nez Perce friend. The white man came to our people and said, I want to buy your land, we said to him the land suits us, we will not sell it. He then goes to our neighbor and says, "Pay me money" and I will sell you your neighbor land. The white man returns to us and says, I have bought your land and now you must let me have it. If we sold our lands to the government, this is the way they bought it.  Words from Chief Joesph
