We met with a warm reception from this gentleman and his wife, also from Mr. Burt, whose acquaintance we had made some weeks ear- lier, at Chamberlain. The afternoon was spent in strolling about the neighboring hills among Indians and their tents, and in discussing the condition of affairs at Rosebud. The scene nbout us was strikingly picturesque. Men of a more savage aspect than any we had hitherto- met with might be seen scouring the hills upon their ponies. Their costumes of vivid and varied... colors; white, yellow, red, green, blue and black, appeared mtensely brilliant against a background of gray- sand, or the faded herbage of the hills. The appearance of white visi- tors is rather unusual at the Agency, and consequently we were re- garded with some curiosity. One man asked of Mr. Cleveland, in Dakota, "What have those men come for?" His reply that business, connected with the Mission had brought us seemed entirely satisfactory. Whilst all we saw was from an artistic standpoint, striking and attrac- tive — far more so, indeed, than what we had observed elsewhere — the moral aspect of everything about us was gloomy and depressing.
