| Transcript |
Fort Wrangle, Alaska March 30th, 1878. "To all whom it may concern- Kah Yaukti, a chief of the Kootsanoo tribe called to see me this afternoon. He says he wants his people to have schools and churches that heretofore they have been bad and foolish but now they want to do better. He intends to be a firm friend to the white man and will do all in his power to prevent his people from doing any one harm. He heard of my being here and came to see me to tell me what he wanted. His tribe has had a bad name, but may the time be hasten- ed when they shall have the love of God in their Hearts to guide them in the paths of righteousness. II beg of all men to treat him kindly and en- courage him to thirst after better things. May the Salvation, life and teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ be made known to his people. John G.
