9 The Indian might well hope for something beyond this life, for his condition here since the dawning of so called civilization has often been of few days, and generally full of trouble. As a race he will soon be unknown. For? time will make him, eventually, a part of unclear pale-face people, his descendants. unclear not even retaining any of the traditions of the fathers. So far as he has gone in the school of civilization he has much to show to his credit. He is, here and there, one with his pale-face sojourner, in all vocations?, pursuits and professions. He has responded, naturally, to training, to teaching, and to good example wherever he has been, subject to the bad influence also; yet not an exception to other men in that respect. He will continue to plot his weary way so long as "hope, with him as with others, is the anchor to the soul."
