Blackfoot on Wolf Hunters

Speech

I do not care so much about the part on the Yellowstone and in the mountains, but above, in the valley, it is good. I am going to tell yen I treat my friends good. When you speak to me I say, yes! yes! Along the Muselc-Shell and Teton Mountains is Judith Basin. Many men go into that country wolfing; they kill game. We thought, when we saw them, that white men are giving us food. When we have to buy what we want, they will be ashamed when they see us. When we have a friend we take him to our teepees. We give him a robe to cover himself. When we meet a wolfer, if he is poor, we give him a pair of pants and moccasins, or a blanket. We shake hands with him, and send him away all right. We would like them to quit wolfing; there are getting to be too many of them, and we want them to quit. (The commissioners examined the map.) What have you decided about on the map?
