In the afternoon I visited the lodge of an old chief of the Nez Perces, named Lawyer. He showed us a wound in his side from which he w r as yet suffering, although several years had elapsed since it was received. It had been inflicted in a figh...t with their old hereditary enemies, the Blackfeet Indians. These are the most dangerous banditti among all the tribes, perfect Ishmaelites who, while they are at war with all the neighboring savages, have nourished the most implacable hatred to the whites, since they first met them in the days of Lewis and Clarke.
