Our visit with the Sioux indians

Dear Journal,

We are now leaving the Teton Sioux tribe that we ad accompanied for three long days. The tribe was a hard one to please, and was unfriendly and aggressive! Teton men wore hawk feathers about their heads and robes over their bodies, while women dressed in buffalo skins and robes. I would describe the Teton with a very skinny appearance, very ill-looking and small. During the expedition’s stay, the Tetons held a number of celebrations – scalp dances – of a recent war victory over the rival Omahas. We could no speak Sioux so there were many misunderstandings through out our stay that caused arguments. So the Teton Sioux tribe is not one that we would want to see again!
