PEACE FOR FIFTY-FIVE YEARS.
For fully fifty and five years The white and Indian races Had dwelt in peace and real friendship And in adjoining places.
They bartered such things as they had, Dealt fairly on both sides, The Indians always seemed content And fully satisfied.
On some occasions wicked men Would rob them in their trade.
But the officials always saw That fair returns were made.
The Indian chiefs and white men met On numerous occasions, And for their warm continual friendship They gave
...congratulations.
There was no conflict and no strife For fifty and five years, Nor was there ever any cause Of terror or of fears.
Now after such a lapse of time You surely would contend.
That such a long continued peace Would never, never end.
But soon some of these friendly Indians Became a murderous band, And murdered, robbed and burned the houses Through this once peaceful land.
They fell upon the quiet people While on their farms engaged.
And sometimes killed whole families, The young as well as aged.
