DAHCOTAH;
OR,
LIFE AND LEGENDS OF THE SIOUX
AROUND FORT SNELLING.
BY MRS. MARY EASTMAN,
WITH
PREFACE BY MRS. C. M. KIRKLAND.
ILLUSTRATED FROM DRAWINGS BY CAPTAIN EASTMAN.
TO HENRY SIBLEY, ESQ.,
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
It was my purpose to dedicate, exclusively, these pages to my beloved
parents. What correctness of sentiment appears in this book is mainly
ascribable to a principle they endeavored to instil into the minds of
their children, that purity of heart and intellectual attainment are
never more appropriately exercised than in promoting the good of our
fellow-creatures.
Yet the sincere sentiments of respect and regard that I entertain for
you, the remembrance of the many acts of friendship received from you
during my residence at Fort Snelling, and the assurance that you are
ever prompt to assist and protect the Indian, induce me to unite your
name with those most dear to me in this dedication.
