Today, July 29, the papers say that in Utah there was a battle between the Indians and the settlers. I can't imagine what the women and children are going through right now, I hope that they are safe. It says that the settlers are starting to organize companies, that I think will prevent the Indians from passing the boarder. It's becoming difficult for anyone to leave Jacksons Hole. Governor Richards says he's going to try to control the settlers and try to prevent them from attacking the Indians. I hope this all ends very soon. There are Bannocks in the area, and they steal and won't think twice before killing a white man. I am very scared for both The Whites and Indians down by Jacksons Hole.
that's intense! I hate how the Indians are made out to be so terrible.... I mean, they were there first. I guess that's just the mindset in those days
