They were told that the government would not sell their land till it was sur- veyed, and that could not be done during the summer of 1838. The Indians refused to give possession and both parties resorted to violence. The fur traders in the region sided with the Indians and advised them to resist the squatters. The Catholic priest located at the Twin Lake Mission also advised them that the squatters had no right to demand their land, especially the crop of com which was now raised.
