" He was a faithful old fellow, perfectly familiar with all the trails and topography of the country from Fort Hall to The Dalles, and although he could not speak a word of English, and no one in our party a word of Cayuse, he succeeded by pantomine in leading us suc- cessfully over the roughest wagon road I ever saw. Sticcus was a member of Dr. \Miitman's church, and the only Indian I ever saw that I thought had any con- ception of the Christian religion or practiced it. I met him afterward in... the Cayuse war.

I once dined with Sticcus in his camp on what I supposed was elk meat. I had arrived at that con- clusion because, when I looked at the cooked meat in- terrogatively, the Indian held up his hands in a manner that indicated elk horns ; but after dinner, seeing the ears, tail and hoofs of a mule near camp I became satisfied that what he meant to convey with his pantomine was "ears, " not "horns.
