Nąka, also known as Keramani, asked that they not be placed in chains. A very detailed description of Red Bird's costume. The nobility of Red Bird. The negative impression conveyed by Wika. A discussion of the rattlesnakes that infest the area and what the Indians do for protection against them. Descent of the Wisconsin River. Pierre Pacquette, interpreter.

In 1827 a party of Winnebagoes massacred an entire family of whites. Later that year a false rumor circulated among the Winnebago that two of their prisoners in the hands of the whites had been remanded to an Ojibwe gauntlet with fatal effects, so one of their chiefs was called upon to take revenge.

Papers of James Duane Doty, Official Journal, 1820. Letter to James Strong, Chairman of the Comt. on Territories. "A few remarks upon the state of the Savages in that region ..." About 24,000 Indians reside in the territory of the Cippewau, Munnomonee, Winnebaygo, Ottauwau and Pootowotomee tribes. There is a need for a superintendent. Increase in settlement would promote the security of this frontier. The Winnebaygoes sell a lot of corn raised near the Wiskonsin Portage to the market at Green Bay. Thus it is a good place for settlement.

Notes on Early Lead Mining in the Fever (or Galena) River Region, by the editor. Indians used buck horns and heating a cooling with fire and water to break up the rock. Women and old men did the mining, the younger men did the smelting. The Winnebago took over the mines from the Sauk and Fox after the treaty of 1804. The Fox, Sacs, and Iowas spent more time mining than hunting, and in 1810 produced 400,000 lbs. of lead.

The Arrival of American Troops at Green Bay in 1816. Letter of Dr. William Henry Hening, regimental surgeon. A new fort will be erected on the site of the old French fort at Green Bay. Two tribes lived in the area in the time of the French: the Menominee and the Winnebago. The latter were driven to Lake Winnebago and the Rock River region. The Winnebagoes strongly oppose any settlement in their area. "The storm is murmuring at a distance, which I am fearful will, sooner or later, burst on us with all the accumulated horrors of savage vengeance." Hening encloses a speech of Nat-aw-pin-daw-qua, or the Smoker, a Winnebago chief, delivered Aug. 23, 1816 to the Indian Agent Boyer. He is apprehensive that the whites are building forts because they intend harm to the Red Skins. However, they will not succeed, because God protects the Indians as well. However, despite the lies told about the Winnebago, they are desirous of friendship. He renounces allegiance to the Red Coats, but relates the perfidy of American agents. Nevertheless, he asks for American rifles, which are the best. He hopes that the Father will give him of his milk (whiskey), and they promise to carry back to their villages and not drink it all on the way back, as others have done.

Various letters from the Canadian Archives. Sinclair to Boltan, June 4, 1780. "The Winnipago Indians without exception, attempted to storm it (a Spanish Breastwork) and lost a chief and three men on the spot, four are wounded and one of them (I fear) mortally. They are enraged against the backwardness of the Canadians and the base conduct of the Sacks, who have been debauched by the Rebels on account of their lead mines, and by the traders in their Country, who drew advantage of them." Sinclair to Haldinand (July 8, 1789). A party of Winnipigoes have been sent to disrupt the supply lines of the Rebels.

Letter of Langlade to Capt. Robertson, March 5, 1783. The Puants on a plundering expedition lost a man, and in atonement required a great quantity of spoils for his life, which the local French Canadians were obliged to give for fear of their lives.

202-203†
Lt. John H. Fonda received orders from the Indian sub-agent to arrest the several hundred Winnebago in his area. When they came upon any Winnebagoes, they seized their guns and removed the locks from them. The Winnebago were taken to Prairie du Chien and on to their reservation. There were no more than a hundred stragglers left in Wisconsin.
Wisc. Hist. Coll. V.280-284
207-209
David McBride, "The Capture of Black Hawk." After the battle of Bad Axe, Black Hawk sought refuge among the Winnebago on the Lemonweir River. His trust in the Winnebago was misplaced, as they proved treacherous to both him and the whites. He and his companion the Prophet fled north to the Seven Miles Bluff. News soon came that the enemy were closing in, so they split up, and the chief hid in what is now know as "Black Hawk's Nest." The next day he met with Chaetar and One-Eyed Decorra. They had come to take him captive, but in the middle of the night he escaped. He rejoined the Prophet, and they intended to seek Keokuk. On the way that stopped at the Winnebago camp, and that is where the two Winnebago pursuers caught up to him and took him prisoner. They took him to Prairie du Chien. There is a long footnote on the Decorra family.
Wisc. Hist. Coll. V.293-297
210-216
"Winnebagoes and the Black Hawk War." The Winnebago population was about 2,000. They were peaceable, although sometimes drunkenness was a problem. They have earnestly applied themselves to agriculture. Wakon(haka) Decorah, the chief, then 84 (ca. 1859), told his story. They lived peaceably besides the white at Prairie du Chien. They had heard of the battles between the Fox and Sauk and the whites. A white officer came to him with a flag of the United States and a uniform, and asked him to join in the fight. He embraced the cause, since he himself was part white. The fighting, they lost 12 men. As the Sauks retreated, they burned the crops. They were on the warpath all season long, and brought Gen. Atkinson more prisoners than he could handle. They captured the Prophet, and later received rations from the army. He met Gen. Scott at Rock Island, and the general communicated the satisfaction of the Great Father. The Sauks struck back and had killed even Wakon's family. The Winnebagoes received no pay for their service because there had been no muster roll. But Little Hill could tell the names of all who had participated. His own relative had been the one who captured Black Hawk, and was now known by that name himself.

"Early History of Education in Wisconsin." Schools for the voluntary instruction of Indian children were established in accord with the treaty of 1832. However, none of them worked out, despite the industrious efforts of Rev. David Lowry.

222-223
Rev. Alfred Brunson, "A Sketch of Hole-in-the-Day." In 1825, Governor Cass assembled the Sioux, Chippewas, Winnebagoes, Monomonees, Sauks and Foxes at Prairie du Chien to settle the boundaries between them. It went well except for the Sioux and Chippewas, who made exaggerated claims to each other's lands.
Wisc. Hist. Coll. V.391
223
Origin of the name "Puans". They take their name from the "Bay of the Puants" which is the same as "Salt Water Bay." This name may arise from the mire in the bay.
Blair, Indian Tribes, I.288-290
220-221††
In former times the Puans were master of Green Bay. They were sodomites, practiced bestiality and cannibalism. The Malhominis were their only friends. They were extremely warlike, and anti-French. The Outawaks once sent them envoys whom they ate. They engaged in civil war, but had to retreat to a single village when all joined the Outawaks to war on them. Disease soon set in. Despite this, they sent 500 warriors against the Outagamis, but all of them perished in a storm on Lake Michigan. Famine soon beset them. The Islinois pitied them, and set 500 of their best people with ample provisions to aid them, but during the dance, they were ambushed and rubbed out. The Islinois assembled a revenge expedition and finally caught up with the Winnebago when they were concentrated in a single village. They killed or capture all of them save one, who escaped with arrow wounds.
Blair, Indian Tribes, I.293-298
222-225
The Winnebago number about 150 warriors. They are extremely haughty, although they are good soldiers. Their neighbors hate them, but the French have kept them from extinction through their friendship and protection.
Blair, Indian Tribes, I.300-301
226
The Sauks seized the northern part of the Green Bay peninsula, and the Pouteouatemis the southern half. This forced the Winnebago to cease the hunting of beaver, and to live on deer in the woods.
Blair, Indian Tribes, I.317
227
M. Talar, the Intendant of Canada in 1667, called the tribes to an assembly to notify them of the territorial claims of the King of France. Only the Puans showed up.
Blair, Indian Tribes, I.343
228
The French sent ahead the Puans to discover new tribes west of the Mississippi. When they found a new tribe, they were to light a signal fire. The Indians do this at night on tribal hunts so that they can see where one another are. After a time, the French saw a signal fire. The Puans had discovered a tribe called the Ayoës.
Blair, Indian Tribes, I.366
229
In their campaign against the Iroquois, the French took recruits from the Pouteoüatemis, the Malhominis, and the Puans.
Blair, Indian Tribes, II.20
230
The Puan chief, to aid the French, went to the Outagamis and told them that Perrot was coming with a huge army of French, Iroquois, Abenaquis, and Nepiciriniens.
Blair, Indian Tribes, II.54-56
231
The chief of the Puans was friendly to the French and would do anything for them. It was the opinion of the French that if the Outauaks should go forth, the other nations would follow them.
Blair, Indian Tribes, II.76
232
At a council, Perrot offered the calumet to all present as a show of their support, but one chief did not take it. The Puans intervened, giving him gifts of six kettles and two items of porcelain.
Blair, Indian Tribes, II.78
233
The Maskoutecks raided the Nadouaisioux, but carried off as prisoners some Puans and Ayoës who happened to be living nearby.
Blair, Indian Tribes, II.82-83
234
In the campaign against the Iroquois, the Outagamies held out, saying they would join only if the Sakis, Puans, and Pouteouwtemis first took the warpath. To effect their cooperation, "they were offered an Iroquois scalp with the words, 'here is an Iroquois who is given to you to eat ... if you do not go, we shall declare you an enemy."
Blair, Indian Tribes, II.85
235
Perrot arrived safely among the Puans, who were prepared to go to war against the Maskoutecks who had seized Perrot's property and threatened his life. But Perrot advised against this.
