- a charming two months journey which he has since made. I concluded it was a good time for me to retire from Indian service, and so I resigned and came home.
That was the first of July. The Secy. & Com'r. wanted to send me right out to Colorado again, to the Utes, but I said no, and I have just declined, on the ground of other engagements, an appointment as Com'r. to accompany & assist Com'r. Smith & Gov'r. Davis, in their proposed Satanta [underline] Council at Fort Sill. this last was quite a temptation, and I tho't of going at one time, but found myself too busy here. So I guess I am done [underline] with Indians for a long time to come.
I thought frequently, that of [strike] in my actual journeys or those contemplated, I should pass thro' Saint Louis, but it did not come so [strike] to pass.
--- So much,- too [underline] much, I'm afraid, for Indian Affairs and my latest connection with them.
