The trees of the forest, the stones that lie along his pathway, have ears open to his prayers, and whose power he invokes in the hour of peril. Note 64. "Our hearts are good, but do not seek Page 292. for more to get our little land." " Our country was given to us by the Great Spirit, who gave it to us to hunt upon, to make our cornfields upon, to live upon, and to make down our beds upon when we die.

The Great Spirit gave it to his children to live upon, and to cultivate so far as is necessary for their subsistence; and so long as they occupy and cultivate it, they have the right to the soil ; but if they voluntarily leave it, then any other people have a right to settle upon it.
