Possibly A\-ith a view to make a final display of their strength on ground that had been the scene of many of their past triumphs, they marched, one hot day in August, 1835, in procession through the streets of Chicago. Hideously painted and clad in scanty raiment, they started from their rendezvous on the North Side, crossed to the West Side on an old bridge over the North Branch, then crossed the West Branch on Anson's Tayor's bridge near Randolph Street and with fierce war-whoops and savage ...dancing proceeded along Lake Street to Fort Dearborn. From one of the upper windows of Mark Beaubien's hotel, the Sauga- nash. Dean Caton watched this final demonstration of Indian tribal spirit in the streets of Chicago, after- wards putting on record the emotions of mingled fas- cination and alarm which the spectacle awakened in those who witnessed it. ' The emigration of the Potawatomi to the West took place in Septemljer. 1835, under the management of Colonel Russell. Moving across Illinois they took a southwest wardly route through Iowa and thus reached the triangular strip of land then claimed by the Sacs and Foxes and later known as the Platte Purchase.
