............ ....skirmish
with him at Greenleaf and one west of Okemah and I was still with Checote’s
men when we followed them to the Sac and Fox country. I was there when
peace was finally made and troops were sent to bring back the revolters.
I had taken a small
caliber rifle and the others made fun of it. Some of them said that if
I hit any of Isparhechar’s men with it I might make them mad.
FORT GIBSON
When Fort Gibson
was occupied by soldiers they sometimes found it hard to entertain themselves,
they would go and get Sam PERRYMAN, a Creek one-hundred and thirty years
of age, with one of the Government wagons. He would tell them stories,
etc., and when they took him home, they would put a lot of groceries in
the wagon for him. Perryman lived across the Arkansas River.
